Studio Devil’s Virtual Tube Amplification is a breakthrough in vacuum-tube amplifier modeling technology. Our patented
tube-modeling process is based on the dynamic characteristics of real 12AX7A vacuum tube preamplifier stages, the
building blocks of the world’s most coveted tube amplifiers. By accurately mimicking this preamp tube stage, virtually any
tube amp can be built through unique configurations and combinations of them. Virtual Bass Amp represents just a few of
the infinite number of virtual amplifiers that can be built with this technology.
When you play through Studio Devil Virtual Bass Amp, you will notice that it responds just like a real tube amp. The tone is
rich, simple, and inspiring. And, the dynamic gain structure reacts to your fingers and picking style, allowing expressive
playing, just like the real thing! You’ll be amazed at how good your tone sounds playing through Studio Devil’s virtual tube
amplifiers. Until now, digital never sounded so…analog!
So…enjoy the newly found warmth of digital…enjoy Studio Devil!
