About

Why These Plugins Exist

I've been passionate about guitar playing, music production and all things tech for decades, often doing small coding projects as a hobby or to fulfil a need. Nowadays, with AI doing the heavy lifting, I've finally started making my own plugins, so I can use my own sounds and workflow rather than constantly swapping the plugins I used.

I now offer these to you. In the zip files you'll find VST3 for Windows and AU+VST3 for macOS plugins. To use with Linux read this post. Check the latest fixes in the Changelog page.

These plugins are offered as-is, in the hopes that fellow guitarists may find creative inspiration in exploring these tones. You can use them as you wish, but please don't re-upload them to other websites or platforms, or re-sell them as part of packs!
