Amp modeling, finally done right!
“Nice try” is probably what comes to mind
when you hear “guitar amp modeling.” Many
great products out there give you all sorts of
modeling bells and FX whistles – and they even
do it cheaply! But that digital aftertaste still
lingers. That might be OK for some, but we
are determined to deliver amps with real
tone & feel for serious players!
This is where DSM (Dynamic Sector Modeling)
comes in: After years of painstaking research,
we managed to create a new technology
that authentically recreates the acoustical
and electrical properties of the modeled
amp. Our DSM amps’ virtual sectors interact
just like the hard-wired components in their
physical counterparts. In fact, our models are
so amazingly accurate that they capture each
amp’s trademark subtleties in every aspect.
If you know and care about tone, check out
DSM and prepare for a sonic revelation that
may forever change your perceptions. As
many reviewers worldwide attest, DSM is
convincing enough to convert even true
tube believers!
