Our favourite amp is definitely the '57 Deluxe, but each model offers something slightly different.

The fun really started for us when we used AmpliTube Fender in real time with a Stratocaster - it successfully sculpted that potentially weedy Strat tone into all manner of rich, solid and distinctive sounds. Purely in amp terms, you're spoilt for choice, and while the pedal effects aren't very extensive, at least they're all good. Just dropping the plug-in onto pre-recorded guitars in a mix revealed plenty of recognisable Fender tones, from the thickness of the Bassman to the direct, punchy sound of the Champion 600 and on through the rich, creamy Twin Reverb.

The Bassman 300 is a modern rig with graphic EQ and compression, while the TBP-1 offers a classic tube preamp with modern overdrive and EQ.įor a more contained, 'studio' sound for electric guitar, you've got the Pro Junior and Champion 600 amps, while metal maniacs should try the MH-500 Metalhead rig, which has a solid-state power amp.įinally, Fender's recent Super-Sonic valve amp gets a look-in, although only the Burn channel is included (the Vintage channel is absent). The other models offer broader capabilities, such as bass-specific amps. So, if you're after the full-scale classic valve-driven sound to couple with a Strat or Tele, you've got six great choices in the older units.

The other six amps are more recent: the Champion 600, Super-Sonic, MH-500 Metalhead, Pro Junior, Bassman 300 and TBP-1 Bass Preamp. Half of these stem from Fender's rock 'n' roll hey-day and include the '59 Bassman LTD, '57 Deluxe, '64 Vibroverb Custom and '65 Deluxe Reverb, as well as the '65 Twin Reverb and Vibro-King Custom already mentioned. AmpsĬlearly, AmpliTube Fender's big draw is its amp emulations. You'll also find options for activating oversampling for pedals or amps and a high-resolution mode - inevitably, these carry an accompanying CPU hit. Of course, Fender has approved the sounds of the package, too. The company has also developed something called Volumetric Response Modelling (VRM), which has enabled it to capture the sound of the Vibratone Rotary Speaker. IK is keen to point out that AmpliTube Fender is its most accurately modelled package to date, citing extensive use of their Dynamic Saturation Modelling (DSM) and the recreation of each and every stage of the amps and effects.
