Drawmer 1960 in a pedal?

[Russ]

I was listening back to some old recordings from a couple of bands I was in back in the day, and the best bass sound I ever had was at one particular studio where the engineer always put the bass through an old Drawmer 1960 valve compressor. It added a lovely, valve-y, chewy resonance to the sound that I've never been able to get by any other means, including any other compressors.

 

Has anyone come across a pedal, or a multi-FX that models the Drawmer 1960? I know there's a plugin for DAWs from Softube, but I haven't come across anything in a pedal...

Since it's probably going to be always on does it need to be in a pedal format? An actual Drawmer 1960 in a rack case will be fine.

They're kinda fragile things, and not something I'd want to be carting around with me, especially since I do the whole lightweight thing these days. It would be nice to have one for home though.

Just had a look at the schematic and each channel has 5 valves in it, so it's still going to pretty large and probably fragile in pedal format, if it was even possible to make like that.

I'm wondering if someone has modelled it for one of the multi-FX units that's out there - Line 6 don't have it and Zoom don't have it, wondering if the likes of Fractal, Headrush, Neural DSP or one of the others out there might have tried.
