Early Dire Straits sound?

Hi folks,

Does anyone has created a pedalboard to match the early sound of Mark Knopfler with dire straits ?

This one pretty much nails the “Money For Nothing” sound:

I haven’t experimented with it much or used it live, but you might try that if you haven’t already.

Thanks. Tried it with my custom built Strat Schecter dreammachine with the F500T pickups.
Pretty convincing with a clean tube amp.

I’m looking more for the tone of the 3 first albums. The subtle mix with compressor, reverb, delay and clean tone.

I love that sound! That would be a good one to have in the toolbox. I haven’t been doing anything with my setup lately - no gigs - but I’d love to see a board or a plugin with that capability.
