If you want to learn about vintage studio effects units then the Vintage FX book of meticulously researched and beautifully photographed classic units should be on your wish list!

There are endless glossy coffee table books about vintage guitars and amps. Likewise, if you want to know about analogue synths, valve mics or classic consoles, there’s plenty of information out there. However, other gear that was plentiful in the past now attracts less attention. That’s hardly surprising in the case of tape synchronisers or MIDI file players, but strange when it comes to studio effects units of the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s. We all know about the EMT 140 plate and the Eventide H3000, but who among us has ever heard of the Sequential Circuits Pro FX, the Cyclosonic FS1 or the gloriously named Publison Fullmost Relief Enlarger?
