Mega-menu lab · GitHub v2_67

Mega menus (new) — this page only. Black bar matches every live demo: Demo hub, Filters · Microphones (new), Full redesign (v2.67) (multi-page file, older megas; PDP template is only on that file). Row below = Preset 1–6. Nav order: Microphones → Outboard → Consoles → Vintage and Used (+) → Studio Design → Monitoring → Learn → Deals.

Microphones — Neumann co-op + 3 tiles

Outboard — UA 1176 featured

Consoles — EMI exclusive

Vintage + — amber theme, U47 just landed

Studio Design — services + integration

Monitoring — Genelec best seller

Learn — three columns + light rail

Zone 1 — Right Panel (Tier 1)

Co-op feature: brand pays for dark panel placement. Single product, single message. Rotates per category.

Zone 2 — Bottom strip

Light trust row per GitHub v2_67.

Zone 3 — itiles

Recommendation: photo + short type (not text-only)—proves the product. Default two slots so the rail stays the hero; add a third only on wide breakpoints or rotating promos. Declutter: one label line + name + price/stock, single CTA.

Ask

Live Chat, Callback, Video Chat (hover menu). Editorial and services surface via utility row, category megas, and future PLP (phase 2).

Make Your Mark

Video teaser contextual to each category. New customer funnel + brand credibility signal. Sweetwater has no equivalent.

Expert CTA

Green pulse dot. Always live. VK's biggest weapon over Sweetwater — surfaced at the exact browse moment.

Vintage panel

Amber theme. "Just Landed" single piece. Scarcity + authenticity. Sweetwater cannot compete here.

Reviewer path

Same four links on every live prototype: Demo hub · Mega menus (new) · Filters · Microphones (new) · Full redesign (v2.67). No archived PLP drafts in that bar.
