Welcome!
This is the user manual for REAMP, a gear modeled saturation plug-in effect available for iPad
(AUv3) and Mac & Windows (AU/VST/AAX). It has been designed and developed by Klevgrand, a
small studio in Stockholm, Sweden. REAMP is a complex spectral saturation processor simulating
a set of different analog gear in a new and unique way. Benefits of this algorithm is that it is highly
CPU efficient and adds (almost) no latency.
The seven models available are based on real analog gear individually measured in two
dimensions; gain responses (-inf dB to +6 dB) at the frequency spectrum 20Hz to 20kHz. This data
is used to transform input audio to output audio.
Note: Due to how some of the internal filters works inside this plugin, it’s not possible to
provide a 100% linear frequency response when altering the MIX knob / Bypass switch.

User Interface
1. INPUT
-24dB to +24dB
Controls the input gain. Use to control amount of overall saturation.
The three leds below indicates the input level. An optimal input level is when the green led is lit, and
the yellow led lit up on transients. Try to avoid the red led.
2. OUTPUT
-24dB to +24dB
Sets the output volume.
The VU-meter below shows the output signal volume.
3. MIX
Mixes between dry and wet (processed) signal without adding phase artifacts. Note that the dry
signal slightly differs from the raw input signal. This is because how the internal filters works.
4. ON/OFF
A soft bypass. The audio signal will pass through a set of internal filters when set to OFF, so to
achieve true bypass, one must use the host bypass (or remove the plugin from the effect chain).
5. DRIVE
0dB to 24dB
Adds saturation to four different frequency bands. (BASS, LO MID, HI MID, TREBLE)
6. POST
-24dB to +24dB
Sets the output volume for the four different frequency bands. (BASS, LO MID, HI MID, TREBLE)

7. MODEL
Sets what gear to be emulated.
Cassette Deck
A consumer cassette deck produced in the mid 80’s. This profile adds some nice grit in the lower
mids and rolls off the higher spectrum in a very pleasant way.
1/4” Tape Reel
A high quality tape reel machine was used for this profile. Set to one channel mode, there was
plenty of dynamic bandwidth to capture on this one. Adds some subtle tape saturation that oozes
mid 70’s.
Preamp Tube Clean / Preamp Tube Drive
These two profiles are captured from a high end tube microphone preamp with two different input
gain levels (normal gain on the Clean version and a boosted level on the Drive version). Used on
only one channel, this profile is very subtle, but the impact adds up when several channels are used
simultaneously.
Guitar Tube Clean / Guitar Tube Drive
The guitar amp used is a well known pro amp used by several pro guitar players, and just like the
Preamp Tube profiles, these are recorded with two different input gain levels.
Tube Bass Amp
One of the developers friends dad had an old bass amplifier that we borrowed and profiled. Tip:
Run a Fender Jazz bass through it and your neo soul licks will sound just like they’re supposed to.
8. HARMONICS
Offers some control over the harmonics created by the saturation. If audio content rich on bass
sounds too noisy/sharp when saturated, set HARMONICS to FEW.
9. MAGNIFIER
Desktop only
Flips between normal and enlarged (50% larger) window size.
10.OVERSAMPLING
When active, the amp processor(s) oversamples the signal to prevent aliasing. Note that
oversampling the signal consumes much more CPU power, so use with care.
