This VST plug-in trys to simulate Marshall JCM amp (Sound Example), Soldano and Hughes & Kettner all tube guitar amps.
It is modular in design, meaning you can mix and match different combinations of pre-amplifiers, effects, amplifier and cabinet simulators.
You can freely rearrange the order of modules. This flexible design alone is like having a huge rack of gear, all wired to patch-bays,
with automatic patch assignment recall. Buying all the physical hardware to create these sounds would cost thousands of dollars.
You can send patch changes to this VST to change the entire tone within the middle of a song.
This can be useful if you want to say have a high gain lead distortion sound during a guitar solo, then instantly jump to a warm clean sound
for a bridge, and maybe to a mild crunch for a verse. The possibilities are endless and go way beyond simple channel switching found on traditional amps.
Simulation is good, but you must hear the native tube sounds
of Marshall JCM and Hughes & Kettner and you understand the BIG difference between the simulator and natural thing!
And note: this software has realy crazy price $299, but for this price you can buy ALL TUBE Hughes & Kettner guitar amp with
ultra-low, ultra-bad, and fulminating with dark, explosive energy that software can't approach!sound example mp3
