Product Description

• Brainworx Delivers Dual Tube Rectifier Tone A selected few guitar amps become legends by being a key sonic component of countless hit records and part of the signature tone of a myriad of revered guitarists. Mesa Boogie’s Dual Rectifier® is one such amp. Unlike other legendary amp circuits
• this amp is not only known for a single sound but rather an incredibly wide range of tones- from jazzy cleans to warm crunch to singing overdrive to high gain sounds. Brainworx has now lovingly recreated this legend in plugin form with the bx_megadual. Not only is the tonal soul of the original captured
• but so are all the features which give it such a wide sonic pallet. With three separate channels
• eight tone modes
• the ability to simulate reduced voltage to the output transformer (Variac) and more
• the bx_megadual is perhaps the most versatile guitar amp plugin emulation on the market. As anyone who regularly records electric guitars will tell you
• getting a great tone with a real amp in the studio ain’t easy. It’s a complicated process involving setting up expensive microphones
• preamps and outboard gear and requires lots of experience
• or at least a lot of trial and error. The bx_megadual plugin includes 64 Impulse Responses (IRs)
• which include a dizzying array of guitar cabinets
• high-end microphones and other studio gear. Dirk Ulrich (Owner/CEO of Brainworx) was a rock producer for 15 years before entering the plugin business
• working with musicians from bands like Dream Theater
• Toto
• Michael Jackson’s band and many more. He produced these IRs at the Brainworx studio using 3 different MEGA cabinets
• 9 different high-end vintage and modern microphones all running through his NEVE VXS72 console (1 out of 9 consoles of this type which exists)
• and using outboard EQ from Millennia
• SPL and elysia. The resulting tones
• which would take tons of gear
• time and expertise to achieve
• can be selected from a simple menu inside the plugin. The plugin version also includes some extremely useful features not found on the original amp including a noise gate
• delay and power soak. The bx_megadual plugin delivers the full range of tones found in the original amp- from sparkling cleans
• to crunch
• to soaring solo tones to full blown
• high-gain metal sounds. Its versatility makes it an incredibly useful tool to any Producer/Musician who records electric guitars and a joy to play for any guitarist.
