dB says

It’s my new goto preamp for vocal recordings.

Whether or not this thing is actually based on a vintage API I cannot say for sure:
Some say that the original Sunset Sound console was actually a modified vintage API.

In 2012 Sunset Sound asked no lesser than API legend Paul Wolff to redesign that legendary console preamp for Series 500.
The result is truly amazing, it’s fast, very fast – but will never produce those hard unpleasant attacks so well known from modern issues of the API Mic Pre’s.
It’s got “vocals” written all over it.
Downright must have IMHO.
