CREATIVITY FIRST
What if we told you that you only need one single knob to get a great heavy guitar tone?
And what if we told you that you will experience responsiveness and realism previously unheard in a plug-in?
With the new AmpKnob RevC, this is becoming a reality. Plug in, rock out and immediately start recording bone-crushing guitars without anything to distract your creativity.
RECORD YOUR IDEAS
When inspiration strikes, every second counts before that golden riff is gone forever.
With Ampknob, you can capture your ideas quickly and easily without even starting a DAW. The standalone version of Ampknob includes a built-in recording functionality that makes it effortless to always stay creative.
A scratch book has never been this inspiring!
STAY IN TIME, STAY IN TUNE
The standalone version of Ampknob now comes with a built-in metronome for you to stay sharp at your guitar playing skills.
Change meter, accent, or set automatic speed increments so you can focus on practicing without even taking your hands off the guitar.
The excellent built-in tuner means you're always ready to jam!
THE PERFECT TONE
The perfect speaker cabinet, microphones, and recording chain has been expertly chosen and dialed in by producer Jens Bogren to capture the tone with outstanding detail.
If you feel like experimenting, you can disable the cab or even load your favorite impulse response right from the plugin.
THE FUTURE OF SPEAKER MODELING
RDX (Impulse Response Dynamix) technology breathes life into the guitar sound by adding dynamic and true-to-life speaker behaviour to static impulse responses.
IRDX technology, developed by producer Jens Bogren, uses advanced machine learning methods to reconstruct the difference between a real cab and an impulse response.
The end result is a guitar amp sim that reacts like a real amp, easily fits in a mix without sounding stale, and feels great when playing through.
Impulse Responses are excellent at capturing the tonality and resonance of a guitar cabinet, but by nature they are only a static snapshot in time.
By itself, an impulse response has the tonal characteristics of a real cab but without dynamics, it creates a lifeless, fatiguing sound.
Real-life guitar speakers react dynamically to the input from the amplifier. They move air, compress, and break up depending on how hard they are being pushed by the amp.

Why just one knob?
AmpKnob was designed with two clear goals:
1. Give you the best tone available in a plugin.
2. Help you focus on creativity rather than fiddling with settings and losing your ideas.
AmpKnob captures iconic, high-gain amps perfectly dialed in by one of the best metal producers in the world.
What gear did you model?
AmpKnob RevC captures an iconic high-gain amp heard on countless albums since the early 2000s.
Jens owns a rare pre-500, RevC version which is known for a tighter response and a more aggressive bite than later versions.
A pedal is also part of the chain to further tighten up the low-end.
