HX Effects Noble preamp model OMG!

@IvanBassist did a frequency sweep of his Noble and the Regal and they add the same harmonics at 1KHz and above. He said the feel is different and not as "spongy" though.

I felt this initially too, but when I swapped my cali76 out for my Union LAB Comp I’ve got 99% of the sponginess out of the HX One that I get from my Noble. The right compressor has been a game changer on getting the model that little bit closer.
