Amplifiers
The amps available on the Amplifiers page are modeled on real-life amplifiers. Each
amp features settings typical for guitar recording, such as gain, equalizers, and
master volume. The sound-related parameters Bass, Middle, Treble, and Presence
have a significant impact on the overall character and sound of the corresponding
amp.
Plexi
Classic British rock tone; extremely transparent sound, very responsive.
Plexi Lead
British rock tone of the 70s and 80s.
Diamond
The cutting edge hard rock and metal sounds of the 90s.
Blackface
Classic American clean tone.
Tweed
Clean and crunchy tones; originally developed as a bass amp.
Deluxe
American crunch sound coming from a rather small amp with a big tone.
British Custom
Produces the sparkling clean or harmonically distorted rhythm sounds of the
60s.
The different amps keep their settings if you switch models. However, if you want to
use the same settings after reloading the plug-in, you need to set up a preset.
Selecting and Deactivating Amplifiers
To switch amps on the Amplifiers page, click the model that you want to use. Select
No Amplifier if you only want to use the cabinets and effects.
Cabinets
The cabinets available on the Cabinets page simulate real-life combo boxes or
speakers. For each amp, a corresponding cabinet type is available, but you can also
combine different amps and cabinets.
