FINALLY a metal plugin without ungodly amounts of 7 and 11kHz baked in!!! It blows my mind how often people boost those frequencies then wonder why things sound harsh/fizzy.
stop the lying, this is the Kazrog Ampcraft sim decked out as a one knob, the whole technology has been out for almost a decade yet these punks got together cause the market for plugins is so saturated, especially sims, they cant sell plugins any more so the lying is now a norm
I bought it when i got the e-mail, it just sounds that good. It feels really good to play too. The only drawback is that is it insanely CPU intensive (well for my 9 year old macbook pro)
Sounds really good! I like the simplicity approach. I like nerding out and dialing in tones with all the options, but having something simple would be really handy. Especially for songwriting and getting ideas down quickly.
"We're gonna twiddle A knob." Giggity! Absolutely love the concept though. One knob, done! Quick and easy. I'll probably be buying it, since I love the sound but don't need another amp (already have a Mark IV and a Hiwatt!)
Not really, I love this plugin. It has only one Knob, You plug in and get a great sound. Just like my JCM800 SC20. My tube amp however does not care how you tweak it, it sounds great, as long as the master is above 5. I used an HB attenuator for that. I get enough gain and compression with no pedals. The plugin still sounds worse AND in 1 year there will be one sim better than the previous one. JCM 800 is for 20 years. It will be worth more money in the future.
This is actually very cool! One knob and you're good to go. Imagine if Bogren Digital actually released its analog version (basically a large physical knob)
Brilliant! Quick and good sounding from the beginning, just as it should be. Tweaking amps can be fun but seriously it’s more fun just playing and recording. Makes my Swedish heart a bit proud 🍻
Holy shit. This thing is the real deal. I put a tube screamer plug-in in front of it for the mix I was doing but it doesn’t need it. It really is that good. WTF
Just tried the Peavey/evh version of knobamp. It's crazy good. Moving from neural DSP to this now. I hope they will release non metal amp version like marshall, orange etc.
For a rock guitar sound, I'd want less gain and more low mids. Also, how loud is your input signal? It looks like it's hitting close to 0dB. I bet you could clean it up with lower output pickups.
Fluff, I don't know if you'll see this or if this is worthy of being an FAQ question. But I just wanted to ask if you had to update your ML Soundlab Roots product, what would you change/add...Would you want to change to their Vorna tech and implement their new cab system? Basically the question is, what would you change about your ampsim package if you hypothetically released it today? Regards and much love from Namibia
@@Bogren.Digital Thank you so much for the clarification. I should have known something was up when the cover art was you standing on a ladder next to a 15 foot tall kick drum! You make awesome records and products.
I downloaded the trial and it does sound good but for my setup it tends to sound more fuzzy to me. And ive read people say its better than Neural DSP and thats just opinion. For me, Neural DSP amps sound better for my set up. So really, its just about what your gear works better with.
I own an early REV C dual rec (R058) #58. This is the closest I’ve heard to that real REV C sound, however still missing that crunchy snap that makes the early dual rectifiers sound so good
Perhaps it's hard to emulate the Schumacher into the vsts Rectos. Sadly we have only few 2 channel based sims. Thermionk 5 was first dual recto rev f 1992, Fluffs Mega Fluff Rev F, STL tones amphub Recto Rev F 1993. Now with this one knob Rev C. Hope they make more Rev C sims and also more knobs for people who like to dig on their own.
@@Bogren.Digital So is the idea basically to release different one knob sims for different amps that are simplified and more mix ready? So one doesn't have to faff about with all the different parameters on most sims?
Fluff can you do a free version of your Rev C Rectifier like you did with Amped Roots from ML Soundlab?With the high cost of everything from inflation many of us do not have the extra money to spend on plugins and other music gear!
Is this finally the FIRST 2 ch. Dual Rectifier REV C virtual amp sim? Would love to try it later today, but still hope to get a fuller version with all other knobs.
I didn't like it at first but after I EQ'd it to my liking and added some FX it's OK. Not gonna buy it though, I already have the Petrucci and Soldano products from Neural.
It's great, but I think it would be even better if it had a simple eq section (bass, middle, treble) and an option to turn off the cab and use custom IR's. It would be more versatile while still keeping the simplicity.
I get that, but they've already included a hidden section for gate. There could be another one for eq, with just a discreet button on the corner which we would click and then the parameters of the eq would pop up. The main interface would still have only the gain knob.
@@MatthiasBuesing Have you even used this plugin yet? Ive always dreamed of a mesa suit from neural bus Bogren knows what's up this thing has gotten me a not neural fanboy anymore Cant wait for more releases!
@@MatthiasBuesing Me too! I got kinda bored with NDSP always "recycling" what they've used before and marketing as "new". Sure there are new features, yet they lack the support of "older" plugins like the Fortin Nameless which is by far my personal favourite plugin for guitar tones. I wish they would show some love for it by adding the whammy, transpose, modulation features etc.
👋 I have a question! Let's say you have several amp heads and 1 rack unit, is there a way to run that rack (things like EQ, delay, noise gate etc) into the effects loops of all of the amp heads at once? I'd like to split my signal into qt least 2 heads but I don't want to have to have a different rack for each head....
only if the racks are stereo (two ins and two outs), otherwise you'll have to converge the signal from the two heads to a single output, but you'll not be able to split then again after the racks;
Wait wait wait... I've been hiding my Rectifiers out of embarrassment because we're supposed to hate Rectifiers, right? i'm mean its not 1994 any more, right? Right?
Hmm. Maybe it sounds better through your monitors, but I am not impressed. Or could be your interface? It’s fizzy and flat. Typical digital amp simulator tones. No midrange at all. It’s a No from me… 🤷♂️
Meh. Honestly it’s not that different than some decent stock presets within the Neural DSP stuff imo. Like a few others pointed out these tools are great for getting ideas down quickly but an absolute buzz kill to achieving any unique or different tone than everyone else. I’ll stick to my archetype plugins for quick ideas and my captor X and 5150/JVM205H setup for more serious recording. Blows my mind people are this lazy they need something like this lmao
For anyone interested I downloaded the demo, ran it thru my ltd ec 407 (emg 707s) in drop A. I was skeptical but now I'm a believer. Color me impressed. God damn

Once you're dialed in, just commit the track. No reason to be running amp sims real-time once you like the tone. Print and keep it moving : )
@@danymalsound the main issue is the toll it takes on the CPU when using it to track, so it’s not so good in that regard
Yeah I’ve noticed that too, I downloaded the trial version and it’s veryyyy cpu heavy

@@robertmazurowski5974 good for you man, I have both plugins and tube amps. They both do a great job.
With the prices of amps now the plug in world gives us broke people a great option for recording tones.
@@chrislaprete7582 If I had to sell my MarshalI I would be absolutely happy with this tonę.
It's mostly in the IR anyway boys.

I want a dedicated Midi Kontroller for the plugin.

Brilliant! Quick and good sounding from the beginning, just as it should be. Tweaking amps can be fun but seriously it’s more fun just playing and recording. Makes my Swedish heart a bit proud 🍻
Tackar, Anders!
Finally.
A guitar amp I can actually dial in a tone with! /s
I grabbed it on release day… sounds really
Really good. I had been using Jens Bogren Ir’s on all of my mixes previously as well. He knows his stuff.
With the gain around half way, this is almost the exact tone of the self titled New Found Glory record. Has tons of mids, but still sounds scooped
I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes the standard for indie/smaller producers
This is so sick
That sounds so good. Also the main Chelsea riff is so so good.
Fluff your are the Rectoman king of metal riffs!
I love it. This is exactly what I've been waiting for for 20 years: a no-bells-nor-whistles recto VST and yaay it's affordable.
Holy shit. This thing is the real deal. I put a tube screamer plug-in in front of it for the mix I was doing but it doesn’t need it. It really is that good. WTF
It does already have it integrated in the tone from what I know.
Hope they do a Marshall style amp knob! Like a hot rodded type sound and call it the Plex Knob or Brown Knob lol
Now everybody is gonna sound the same AGAIN! Isn't it beautiful? I sound like Fluff now!)))
This is hilarious, but cool concept. sounds really good, which is what matters.
Damn! That sounds great. Loved that mixed riff too. That’s sick.
Yup I love Bogren Digital and Kohle products. This little amp sim is great and I love the tones you can get
Just tried the Peavey/evh version of knobamp.
It's crazy good. Moving from neural DSP to this now.
I hope they will release non metal amp version like marshall, orange etc.
Fluff I cant get enough of that Red Guitar, its so Beautiful

Big update coming actually
@@RiffsAndBeards thank you for the hint😂👍🏾
I got a free kontakt drum kit from Bogren digital a couple years back. It was literally 12 fart samples!
These guys sound very immature. Also, it was 13 samples, mind you. Some wetter than others.
@@Bogren.Digital Thank you so much for the clarification. I should have known something was up when the cover art was you standing on a ladder next to a 15 foot tall kick drum! You make awesome records and products.
fart samples should be in everyones productions
Been waiting for this one.
I combined it with some effects from helix native and a bit of eq from the SSL channel strip and got some killer results!
Really awesome!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Great overview... Your playing is S.I.C.K!!!!!!!!
Awesome plugins
Paired this with the Dirt pedal from Neural Gojira and it fucking rips dude
I'm thinking of getting this plugin along with the Bogren downtuned IR pack.
I downloaded the trial and it does sound good but for my setup it tends to sound more fuzzy to me. And ive read people say its better than Neural DSP and thats just opinion. For me, Neural DSP amps sound better for my set up. So really, its just about what your gear works better with.
One knob to rule them all…
Hope they make this into a pedal with IR like joyo preamp pedal

SO good 🔥
Maybe it would beat the purpose of its one knob simplicity but being able to turn the cab sim off and maybe even load external cab IRs could be cool
It’s incredible…no fizz, no 4K or 2k nastiness….holy crap
Yup, it does sounds good. It only boils down to the price, at 40Euro it's pretty fair for this one-trick pony.
Sounds great for the right DI and genre.
But i wonder what's their plan if just one knob tone, is they gonna release more of the amp sim or what
Yup! We working on more as we speak :)
@@Bogren.Digital So is the idea basically to release different one knob sims for different amps that are simplified and more mix ready? So one doesn't have to faff about with all the different parameters on most sims?
hey man sick sound. what guitar is that and what tuning?
Fluff can you do a free version of your Rev C Rectifier like you did with Amped Roots from ML Soundlab?With the high cost of everything from inflation many of us do not have the extra money to spend on plugins and other music gear!
Isn't it necessary to put an overdrive pedal first?
Fluff , need help finding my first Dual Rec !!
Is this finally the FIRST 2 ch. Dual Rectifier REV C virtual amp sim? Would love to try it later today, but still hope to get a fuller version with all other knobs.
I didn't like it at first but after I EQ'd it to my liking and added some FX it's OK. Not gonna buy it though, I already have the Petrucci and Soldano products from Neural.
what did you use for bass in that mix cos that shit was fire
how the hell is it that good from one knob?!
It's great, but I think it would be even better if it had a simple eq section (bass, middle, treble) and an option to turn off the cab and use custom IR's. It would be more versatile while still keeping the simplicity.
Third party IRs would be cool but EQ knobs throw away the idea of a One Knob plugin
I get that, but they've already included a hidden section for gate. There could be another one for eq, with just a discreet button on the corner which we would click and then the parameters of the eq would pop up. The main interface would still have only the gain knob.
missed a golden opportunity here for "One name? ONE NAME? Who are you? Seal?"
need a compressor just like this...
did you check out Tramonti's Sanatra covers ?
What was your dry tone before engaging the plug in was it clean or just on break up (slightly crunch thanks)
I like the amp sim but it is a little too squishy for my taste.
Sound muuuuuuch much better than Amplitube's Rectifier. I hated that tone so much. Now I'm torn between this and Rhino.
Needs the ability to turn the cab sim off.
no feature to allow 3rd party IR
Does anyone have any latency issues when using it? I don’t have latency issues with other plugins.
Take My F'n Moneyyyyyy!!! 😂🤣
Jens on a future Beard chat?
So what happens when the gain is dimed?
black hole opens up and swallows your room.
This sounds amazing, but infortunately a lot of records will start to sound the same using these plugins.
Chelsea!
Really interesting approach against the heavily loaded Neural DSP type plugins. Would love to see more of this kind of plugin!
