Ampz

What it does

A guitar amp sim that loads NAM captures, including the newer A2 files, with a Tone3000 browser inside the app for amps, cabs, pedals and full rigs. Ten chain slots take a noise gate, compressor, distortion, NAM model, modulation, pitch shifter, wah, EQ, reverb, delay, single or dual IR loader or limiter, alongside 99 preset slots, a tuner, MIDI mapping, drum loops and a looper.

In the demo

Jade works mostly in the standalone on high-gain metal tones, downloading cabs and rigs from Tone3000, swapping in IRs from her own collection and reordering pedals by dragging. She loads Friedman, 5150 and Fender Twin captures, then opens the AUv3 in AUM.

Worth knowing

The AUv3 is a simplified chain with no access to standalone presets or the Tone3000 browser, so build rigs in the standalone first and save presets in the host. Jade held the video until a large update landed the day of recording.
