An amplifier for beautiful cleans and classic blues tones

This plugin is a fully neural model of a 1965 Deluxe Reverb reissue - the one and only. I wanted to just plug my Strat or jazzbox into my audio interface, and get sweet cleans without messing around with any tweaking or DAWs. We built this for those walking in the same shoes. We are also working on generally making fully parametric neural amps more accessible, and this amp is the first of them.

Neural amp

Our take on the beloved NAM architecture. The tone and gain knobs are conditioned into the network itself, not EQ bolted on top.

tremolo

A gentle optical tremolo applied before and after the amp for maximal creaminess.

Bring your IRs

Load any impulse responses for cabinets and reverbs. We also provide some for you, including a reverb from a nuclear power plant.

We recorded the amp in a sunlit rehearsal room in Budapest, and since we just had to try something new, we tapped the signal going to the cabinet itself. Obviously for this to work, we had to blast alien noises at 110dB for 1.5 hours straight (yeah yeah, it only hits 110 on volume 7-10).
