The perfect tone
With AmpKnob RevC, you can achieve the perfect tone without the need for complicated settings. Renowned producer Jens Bogren meticulously chose and dialled in the ideal speaker cabinet, microphones, and recording chain to capture every detail of this iconic high-gain amp. You can even disable the cab or load your favourite impulse response directly from the plugin if you're feeling experimental. Experience outstanding tone quality and enjoy the versatility of AmpKnob RevC.
What gear is modelled?
AmpKnob RevC faithfully reproduces the sound of an iconic high-gain amp that has graced countless albums since the early 2000s. Jens Bogren personally owns a rare pre-500, RevC version, which delivers a tighter response and a more aggressive bite compared to later iterations. To further enhance the low-end, a pedal is integrated into the chain. Immerse yourself in the legendary sound that has defined the rock and metal genres.
Record your ideas
When inspiration strikes, time is of the essence. AmpKnob allows you to capture your musical ideas quickly and effortlessly, without even needing to open a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation). The standalone version of AmpKnob features a built-in recording functionality, making it convenient to stay creative wherever you are. Think of it as an inspiring scratch pad that preserves your golden riffs forever.
Stay in tune, stay in time
Besides its exceptional tone, the standalone version of AmpKnob now boasts a built-in metronome, ensuring you stay sharp in your guitar playing skills. Easily change the meter, accent, or set automatic speed increments, all without taking your hands off the guitar. And with the excellent built-in tuner, you'll always be ready to jam. AmpKnob RevC keeps you in tune and in perfect time.
The future of speaker modelling with IRDX technology
The AmpKnob RevC plugin utilizes IRDX (Impulse Response Dynamix) technology, which takes speaker modelling to the next level. Developed by producer Jens Bogren, this advanced technology adds dynamic and true-to-life speaker behaviour to static impulse responses. While impulse responses are excellent at capturing the tonality and resonance of a guitar cabinet, they lack dynamics. IRDX technology bridges this gap by simulating the natural reaction of real-life guitar speakers to the input from the amplifier. The end result is an amp simulator that reacts like a real amp, seamlessly fits into any mix without sounding stale, and feels great to play through.

"It sounds AMAZING. This tone is very much in line with my taste and the one-knob approach is perfect for my workflow when writing and tracking." - Ihsahn - Musician (Ihsahn, Emperor, Leporus, Ibaraki)
"The fastest way to get a great guitar tone. From opening the plugin for the first time until it was a single I was working on: 2 minutes. One knob, a little EQ to fit my mix and BOOM." - Tue Madsen - Producer (Behemoth, Meshuggah, The Black Dahlia Murder)
