For clean tones, you get a nice selection of useful tones. None of them sound fizzy or artificial, which is a major achievement in itself. The latency is very noticeable, and as such, is hard to track through. As with all their guitar amps, Brainworx gives you a powerful selection of perfectly recorded boutique cabinets captured with complete effects chains from studios featuring great sounding amp rooms and stellar gear. The gain structure is very similar, breaking up similarly at equivalent points, like the real thing.
You get so much quality and versatility in a small package for a great price, this plugin sells itself. Every single amp responded well to being hit with some dirt. With the Neumann and the Royer they give you a couple options on mic placement, so you can get an on or off-axis sound. You can get a nice shimmering clean tone or a nice gritty clean tone, your choice. The impulse selection is decent but I assume it was tough to narrow down a small list of sims for such a crazy range of sims.
They allow you to high and low-pass the direct signal. The Marshall has some really nice cutting leads and rhythms, the Engl has a great spectrum of gainy tones and the Metal 666 gives you everything from crunch to tech death with high gain clarity and articulation. From clean tones, all the way to insane shred tones, this plug-in has you covered. These can be placed in a recording chain that includes one of four cabinets: Marshall 1960, Mesa Boogie 4x12, Orange 2x12 and Diezel 4x12. Alongside those, the noise gate is useful for achieving a tighter sound. Brainworx also often toss Rockrack into bundles so watch for those as well.
The intention is to display ads that are relevant and engaging for the individual user and thereby more valuable for publishers and third party advertisers. This plugin was developed in world-class studios with world-class engineers managing the project every step of the way, and it shows. The high-pass filter is great for clearing out low frequencies, while the other two offer more subtle tailoring of the top end. Each amp was painstakingly recorded by professional audio engineers who make their living by capturing tone. It features a selection of amps that covers a ton of ground tone wise.
On the distortion front, you also get a nice selection. I opted to test a few and then move on to my own loader and impulses. The delay is actually very well featured. These help us improve our services by providing analytical data on how users use this site. .
Tracks the visitor across devices an d marketing channels. Finally, the delay, although handy, seems to have been applied a little too liberally to the 30 factory presets. Digital at its worst… Brainworx has become renowned for their 1:1 emulations of coveted, high-end guitar amplifiers, providing plugins that not only sound like a real amp but feel like one when you play them. Another slight niggle is that you can't bypass the cabinet chain at all, which would be handy if you wanted to use an alternative plug-in for cab impulse responses. Instead of focusing on giving the user hundreds of amp, cab, and mic models to choose from, the team from spent an equivalent amount of time with 4 amps, 5 cabs, and 4 microphones. It decays slightly more linearly than some other gates, so if the part suddenly goes quiet in the song, it is a little less noticeable as it decays more pleasantly. But of course we did and it was a long session.
I had seen it mentioned in a few blogs and had a friend vouch for its versatility plus my inability to say no to an amp sim on sale made it impossible to resist. Much of the time their distortion sounds brittle and not organic. Every place on the knob is pleasing to my ears standalone, but each mix, or even each guitar part, could benefit from different amounts of this. The preamp filters are also a great tool. I really enjoyed the previous versions of rockrack so when this version came out, it was a must have for me. The filters have a gradual slope, allowing it to stay very musical, but still eliminating unwanted bass frequencies, or harsh high frequencies before the preamp. The marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites.
The noise gate is completely adjustable, having a threshold control, range, attack, hold, release, and a filter. So basically, you have four complete amps in one sim. It is a tap tempo delay, allowing you to adjust it to a rhythmic delay in context with the song, or you can use the time control to adjust it by milliseconds. As mentioned, when it goes on sale, it goes cheap and sometimes as part of a combo with another amp sim or guitar related plugin. Really nice clean tones that have warmth to them, mid gain rock tones, crunch across the board, gain for days and everything else you would need. The tool contains 26 presets featuring eight powerful guitar amp models in one plugin.
On top of that, 40 impulse responses are included, offering just the right variety of tone and timbre for your guitar rig.

In a mix, this could be an easy automation move, instead of programming a completely different delay time in a hardware unit on the fly, or even a delay in the box. It was easy to find impulses that blended well but every amp is so different that I would just stick with the onboard impulses while testing Rockrack. All Brainworx sims come with onboard stuff like a gate, delay and filtering options to get things sounding tip top and can all be bypassed quickly.
