The TPA-1 is a digital emulation of a class
AB tube power amplifier for guitar.
It has been designed and developed to be paired with any
guitar preamp (VST/AU or even hardware). Its circuit is not based on any particular physical power
amplifier, but it has been designed to have enough versatility to range from
vintage to modern tones, letting the user be free to shape its dynamic behaviour
with ease, without the need to be a tube amplifier tech.
Every single component on the signal path of the analog
circuit has been taken into account and modeled in the best possible way to
match the original sound as it was meant to be, while keeping an eye on CPU
performances and real-time playability at the same time.
The TPA-1 is meant to be used as a guitar tube power
amplifier simulator for live playing and jamming, tracking or mixing inside
hosts capable of VST or AU Plug-Ins support.
Features:
- Dynamic EL34 / 6L6GC / KT88 pentodes/tetrodes analog modeling (push-pull
stage).
- Dynamic ECC83 / 12AX7 triode analog modeling (phase inverter stage).
- Mono / Stereo processing support.
- Selectable oversampling rate (up to 8x).
- Global input / output level controls.
- Double precision (64-bit) floating point mathematical model.
- Fully automatable controls.
