Dynamic Sector Modeling

Amp modeling, finally done right!

“Nice try” is probably what comes to mind when you hear “guitar amp modeling.” Many great products out there give you all sorts of modeling bells and FX whistles – and they even do it cheaply! But that digital aftertaste still lingers. That might be OK for some, but we are determined to deliver amps with real tone & feel for serious players!

This is where DSM (Dynamic Sector Modeling) comes in: After years of painstaking research, we managed to create a new technology that authentically recreates the acoustical and electrical properties of the modeled amp. Our DSM amps’ virtual sectors interact just like the hard-wired components in their physical counterparts. In fact, our models are so amazingly accurate that they capture each amp’s trademark subtleties in every aspect.

If you know and care about tone, check out DSM and prepare for a sonic revelation that may forever change your perceptions. As many reviewers worldwide attest, DSM is convincing enough to convert even true tube believers!
