Best Amp Sims For Black Metal

they all have this weird mid range phaser sound going through it it doesnt sound raw

Thanks alot!

A guy did a kemper preset and added all these harmony pedals to the rig, so when you strum a chord, it's like 3 other black metal guitars, doing another harmony. I have never heard a better tone , They have done so much more with the kemper and it's easy to get a good tone with the editor now, there are plenty of pedals now in the kemper that make it easy to get a blacker sound. I really wanted to record some thing and show Simon /every one the power of the kemper for black metal with all the new effects. Maybe Ill try the new backing track in c minor and record something. If anyone has a kemper they have to try this rig, especially because of how he has set the harmony pedal up. The kemper is not cheap, but , NOW with all the new features it's worth it.

I just bought the Neural DSP Petrucci plugin. Mostly for the features like pitch shifting and room mic, but it's surprisingly versatile even for high gain black metal/death metal tones. I realize this sounds like a sales pitch, but I'm genuinely very very happy with it.

Thanx for your work 👍👍👍

My opinion is that all of these sound unusable, except the LePou LE456, which is really the only one I would see myself using for black metal. None of the others get even close to the right type of a sound, at least with your settings.
However, I don't think that it's a very useful comparison since you used a pretty crappy tone overall. Can't even hear the leads, and treble is where the differences are most clearly heard.

Hey Simon, have you checked out the PROTO 4 amp sim? It's a very solid Mesa Rectifier sim made in a partnership between Ugritone and Vadim Taranov, and it's free. Since you've talked with the Ugritone guys before, you might have also heard that they are working together on some kind of a full amp sim suite.

Bathory - Enter The Eternal Fire guitar lesson please 🤘🍻🔥🔥🔥

The Nalex link seems dead, but there are other places to get it thankfully. Others have backed it up.

The best amp is "turn of the cab" mode 🫡

Love the Audio Assault stuff that I have, but had to download the Lepou and Nick Crowe Labs plugins. Those stood out to my ears. FYI- it seems the Nalex link you provided works, but the link within that page for the amp doesn't work.

Are you telling me plugging my guitar into the 3.5mm jack on the front of my 1999 pentium III computer and clipping the hell out of it isn't the play?

Authentic black metal sounds, awesome

The Nembrini Audio EN Hardball is the successor to LE456. 🤘🏻 Sick video as always, mate!

God bless the free ones 😄

nice!!! I m torn but lepou will be my first try

Maybe I'm weird but I quite liked the solid state!

AHM 5050 sounds massive

thank you for sharing the settings too! got a nice sound going off your settings.

To be honest, the amp is not the big deal, a good impulse response is responsible about the tone

Great info and demo Simon

Are they panned 100% on each side ?

I liked the LE456 and the Pectifier the most, pretty solid black metal sounds!! Thank you for the share Simon

I usually use Audiority Solid State as well. I agree it does the job very well

Thanks !! This is very useful !

Might use one of those sometime, thanks!

I highly recommend Revalver from peavey and root amps.
