$29 until 28th Feb. I think I might just give it a go at that price...

They have a free Rat plugin too for extra Nuno-ness.

I do actually have an MP-1, and just damn near had a heart attack when I saw what they’re going for on Reverb nowadays! I paid £75 for mine.

Anyway, if this plugin comes close then $29 is bargain of the century. And it’ll probably be less noisy

£600 - £700. My god, I bought one around 2005 for £150 and bought the MC-1 for another £70. Unbelievable

Review here; looks quite good.

I had the best ADA-MP1 around in the early 90s (so everyone told me) and it was one of the fabled early serial number ones. It sounded absolutely fantastic and was one of the best sounds I've ever had.

It'll be interesting to see what this one sounds and feels like and great demo from Leon.

Hope they drag it into the Helix at some point.. those SS cleans are awesome.

Oh, wow @Cols - that's basically exactly how I'd always want a guitar to sound. Really wish I'd had this when we were recording the BHD album.

Well, holy crap. Not only does iLok Licence Manager work on Linux now (you need to use version 5.6.1), but so does this plugin!

Only irritation is that the GUI doesn't update when you click/move around it.

That said, it sounds glorious. If I can get the GUI working properly, I'll definitely be buying this one. It's really worth at least downloading the demo to give it a go.

I hate plugins….can’t stand the feel, nothing like a real amp (or decent modeller, in my case Fractal) but fair play, this is really good, sounds awesome and feels like I’m playing through an amp or my normal setup. Bargain price too, it’s way better than all the neural stuff I’ve tried. Many thanks to @digitalscream ;for the post!

I'm kinda feeling the same way about it. I noodled around with it for a while, then went to my Bogner Red + Blackstar HT-1 rig, and...I actually preferred the plugin.

It's really insanely good. As a bonus, it includes all the effects I generally use in Helix Native, except it doesn't have all the bloat.

I might actually buy it even though I can't get the GUI to work. It's easy enough to click around to set it up even without any obvious feedback, especially if you know the original unit.

Oooh, could be interesting for practicing heavier stuff at night!

bought - never owned an MP-1 - but I'm using to embellish some recent demos and its rather good

Bought it - very nice indeed.  Bought it fir the heavy tones but the clean tones sound great in a rough mix already.  Good compression algorithm i think.

FYI all - just a reminder that today's the last day of the promo $29.99 price for this one - it goes up to $137 tomorrow.

Available for iOS too so might give this a shot 

Zapple

I bought it last week, already used the clean tones on a track. The plugin is very very good. 

CoffeeAndTV

I’ve bought it too.  Not done anything with it yet.

@ £9.99 as of yesterday, not sure if that’s also an introductory price or not.

Though if they’re like any other plug-in company it will be back on sale in the “March clearance” sale tomorrow. And the “Easter sale” in April, then the “Kings jubilee” sale in May…..
