1 Amp Modeling
You can add the sound of a guitar and bass amplifier to your
audio recordings and software instruments.
Using a method known as component modeling, both the sound and functionality of
musical instrument amplifiers, particularly those used with electric guitar and bass, can
be emulated as an effect. These effects recreate the sound of both tube and solid state
amplifiers, and feature a full set of controls, including pre-gain and tone controls for
bass, midrange, and treble, as well as output level. They allow you to select from a
variety of familiar amp models.
The following sections describe the individual plug-ins included with Logic Express.

Bass Amp
The Bass Amp simulates the sound of several famous bass amplifiers. You can process
bass guitar signals directly within Logic Express and reproduce the sound of high-
quality bass guitar amplification systems.
You can also use the Bass Amp for experimental sound design. You may freely use the
plug-in on other instruments, as desired—applying the sonic character of a bass amp
to a vocal or drum part, for example.
