Meh, ill be honest and say i cant see anything special l here at all. Of course, the world needs a new pre amp so it will sell by the bucket loads 🙂

All depends what one needs from a pre-amp type unit but you'd be hard pushed to beat one of these. Do you want the latest bit of gear of a workhorse?

......or one with magic fairy dust in it and a recognised name on the front........

I know which one I'd use!

Yeah I have to say, the Nordy Starlifter looks cool with its fancy LEDs but it’s doing absolutely nothing new and will likely not be cheap. Yet there are tons of people seemingly queuing up to buy one if Facebook comments are anything to go by. I can’t quite get my head around it

It’s always the same with new gear especially from someone with the following that Nordstrand has. Anything they make in their new pedal line will sell out immediately - the ‘gotta have it’s’ will be queued up and raving about it on Talkbass before they’ve got their hands on one...though it’s basically their 3b preamp in a box so many could be familiar with it already. Nothing like a new thread and a bit of hype to get the pre-orders in.

Several videos here. Check out the video by Jonathan Herrera. He has summarized the pedal extensively. https://nordstrandaudio.com/products/starlifter-bass-preamp-di

Old thread but I quite like the look of this pre - the EQ centres seem quite musically tuned (for my needs anyway).  Maybe just a little on the expensive side however.
