7deadlysins at has collected free impulses into a great pack that will have you cycling through alternatives for days. But there are also fantastic free impulses. Redwirez is one of the most famous commercial impulse creators. You can also load impulses using the ReaVerb plugin shipped with Reaper. LeCab2 can actually load 6 simultaneous impulses that you can mix to your liking (pan/filter/volume etc). LeGion, which is a LePou original not based on any physical ampĪs if that wasn’t enough, LePou has also created a impulse response loader, a separate VST for loading cabinet simulator impulses (an amp sim without a cab sim will sound like crap).LeCto based on Mesa Boogie’s dual rectifier.LePou has created a bunch of really good amp sims based on famous high-gain metal amps, among these: Developed by somewhat secretive Canadian Alain Poulain, the LePou series of amp sims are available as VST plugins for anyone with a DAW at his blog (update: LePou’s blog is gone, the last version of the plugins are available here). One amp sim that keeps being referred to on various internet forums as the best on the market is actually free. Usually the amp sim is combined with an cabinet simulator (in the form of an impulse response) and sometimes also simulated stomp boxes for compression, distortion, delay and reverb. AmpKit and Amplitube on the iPhone are mobile software amp sims. There are numerous amp sims in hardware and software, some of the more notable are Line 6 PODs, Axe FX, Eleven Rack (hardware) and Guitar Rig, Amplitube, Revalver (software). A digital amp simulator takes an unmodified electric guitar signal (usually referred to as a dry signal) and processes it in the same way a real physical amplifier would.
