AmpliTube Metal Receives 4-of-5 Stomps with theStompBox.net
“...From clean to mean and everything in between”

Bookmark and Share

Read some high praise for the newly-released AmpliTube Metal from theStompBox.net, a popular guitar website that provides news and forums on stomp boxes, amp modelers, floor multiFX units and other guitar gear.

"My-Ears-Are-Burning-Melt-Your-Face-Off Distortion! That was my first reaction when I got my copy of the new AmpliTube Metal (ATMetal) and hit that first power chord (followed by an onslaught of lots more staccato chugga-riffage). When you plug into ATMetal - quicker than you can say "Kirk Hammett" - you'll find yourself swimming in a vast sea of ultra-saturated, extra-thick distortion."

"The focus of this particular release seems to be primarily on the genre of extreme/nu-metal/metalcore/grunge tones. That being said, the amps and effects cover a pretty wide range of tones; from clean to mean and everything in between."

"Of course you get all of the great features common to every AmpliTube 2-based product like ultra-flexible routing of two signal chains; speed trainer; pristine tonal quality; integration with StompIO (if you have one); and my favorite - integration with X-Gear. If you're going to get more than one AmpliTube 2-based product, you definitely want X-Gear. It allows you to easily mix and match any component in any package with any other component in any other package, which is where the AT2 product line really shines, IMHO."

"The cleans are nice. You can go from pristine to a light breakup. Couple that with the searing high gain stuff and AmpliTube Metal provides the high contrast tonal palette common to the modern metal genre. I liked the mid-gain tones as much as I did with the original AmpliTube 2 package; there's some nice dimension to the tones."

"All in all, AmpliTube Metal brings a very focused set of high gain, modern metal tones to the table. You can tweak them as much as necessary and find the tones you need for metal."

"Metalheads and thrashers need look no further than AmpliTube Metal. It'll give you all the face melting distortion you need to inspire mosh pits across the globe."
