Overview

Louder Than Liftoff is proud to present the Silver Bullet - Void Corp Edition in a sleek matte black anodized aesthetic. This limited edition version of drBill's Stereo Tone-Amp offers all the same features of the original Silver Bullet, including the same custom American wound transformers and Rogue Five discrete op amps. Please see the FAQ tab below for additional details about the current run.

MOJO Amps™ + Tone Shaping = Tone-Amp™

The Silver Bullet represents a new, innovative class of hardware designed to infuse missing analog mojo into your digital world. MOJO Amps™ capturing the vibe of vintage American and British consoles are coupled with a musical results-driven set of tone shaping features. Together they create a Tone-Amp capable of handling all mixing, tracking, and microphone preamp duties.

Integrated signal routing functionality not only enhances creativity and workflow, but also makes the Silver Bullet a single unit solution for the modern hybrid studio.

The Silver Bullet is very effective at introducing desirable analog artifacts (i.e. 'mojo') into digitally produced mixes without expensive summing solutions, consoles, or never-ending chains of emulation plugins. The Silver Bullet was designed to enhance and shape tracks to sound like a record during every phase of audio production from composition to the final mixdown.

FAQs

When will you have more stock?

We are no longer offering the Silver Bullet mk1. As of 8/27/21 it has been superceded by the new Silver Bullet mk2.
What are the differences between the Void Corp Edition and the silver-face unit?

Presently both units are sonically identical and share all the same internal components including transformers and discrete op amps. The first 25 units launched in December 2016 featured Carnhill transformers and Rogue Six op amps, but after those were sold out the specs were made identical to the silver-face version. The Void Corp Edition features the limited black anodized front panel. Void Corp members are also granted special perks once they activate their membership, which allow them to receive exclusive discounts on new products.
Can I upgrade my silver-faced Silver Bullet to a Void Corp Edition?

The Void Corp Board of Trustees does not sanction making these exclusive features available as upgrades to existing Silver Bullet owners. They will be unique to these limited edition units. No principled supporter of the Rogue Planet Command mission should ever consider going over to the dark side of Void Corp. User modifications will also void your warranty.
Cascading MOJO for the 2-bus is a cool concept. Who originated this kind of product?

We did. Development of the Silver Bullet began in 2012 and was announced and exhibited at AES in 2014. After a lot of hard work the first run of Silver Bullets began shipping at the end of 2015. A product of its class did not exist on the market until we took the creative leap to make it a reality. Someday the big mega-corps may get get hip and try to claim the concept as their own.
