- In todays video, I look at the fantastic new guitar amp sim from Softube called Amp Room Suite. The new version of Amp Room Suite has 4 different pack that are available for Amp Room, Vintage Suite, Metal Suite, Marshall Suite and lastly Bass suite.
Here is a link to go to Softubes web site to find out more.

The Studio Rats are core band members Paul Drew on guitar/production/mixing, drummer James Ivey and Dan Hawkins on bass. They collaborate with singers and musicians to produce radio-ready songs.
I like this, it gives a realistic marshall sound RAW but scufham s gear gives that 80s sound out of the box.
Hey nice playing man! I bought Amp Room a couple years ago, got an email today to say, hey you get the new version for free, cool! Looks and sounds really good!
Nice one.
I totally agree ! I'm on the trial since two days and I'm kind of shocked on how good the it sounds and feel !
I bought the Marshall Suite and you are totally right, I'm loving how beautiful the whole design is.Floored me.There's a sale too ! Thanks
great demo Paul, some really nice chord voicings too, thank you :)
Cheers Paul
Beautiful playing. Subbed for that. And these amps sound gorgeous to me.
There is no 1960 cab with G12t75?
Big improvement!
Especially the improved cabinet section now works much better due to better, more contemporary individual adjustment options and choice of microphones and placement. The older systems never convinced me much, now this section really became professional too.
The Marshalls anyway already sounded good before, maybe apart from the 2204, which always sounded a little too shrill to me, but the JCM800 sounds nice, althout I miss the Low Input option and the Silver Jubilee even sounds better to me than my real one did decades ago. The 1959 Plexi anyway is a gem, which brought me to Softube. I only know a single Plexi plugin alternative, which sounds as good, but also a little different.
The AC-30 offers too little gain for my taste, I know alternatives, which give me a better, more intense Gallagher, May overdrive even without any pedal support, but the basic Vox character is there.
Some pedals, especially the SD-1 still do not convince me so much. My real SD-1 sounds different, the RAT is ok, but also still could be improved, at least with a "more bass" switch, which meanwhile a lot of RAT based pedals also offer.
A real highlight is the new Vildsint with it's sound matrix (9 different voicings!), I think. A nice, in my opinion more British voiced high-gain alternative to a Rectifier, but comparably flexible, even the clean and cleaner tones sound excellent. So it offers you almost everything between clean and ultra-high-gain in really good quality. The different voicings work fine, the more gain, the thighter bass becomes, so you do not even have to readjust much, just change the voicing. Would become my new favorite amp, if it existed in reality! The closest sounding real amp with comparable sounds, I know is a VH-4. No bad reference, I think.
But also the new bass amps are nice, especially the The Cardinal sound great to me. Not like the Ampeg, not like the Murde One / Super Bass, but is has a beautiful, unique late 1960's / early 1970's character.
Another good feature is the flexible 5-band eq, which helps optimizing the final results.
I already owned Amp Room before, but hardly used it, this upgrade certainly is capable of changing this. Now it became a really good professional system for excellent guitar and bass tones.
Thanks for the detailed comment. There’s a preset for the AC30 with a rat in front that sound amazing in my opinion.
This sounds really really great! Enjoyed the video, good stuff!! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it
This sounds pretty huge 🔥
Amazing sound!
Is it me or this one sounds the best of vst amps?
I agree
It sounds super realistic got sure.
They got the right amps in there.
You need to try the Neural VST plug in amps. Especially the Soldano.
Great playing Paul !
Cheers Gary
Great video! I’m confused, is this UAD native? Can it run on Apollo dsp?
What pickups are you using on your tele? Sounds great!😊
How does this connect to an amplifier. Do you have to plug it in to the computer and then plug it back into your amplifier. I’m sorry but I’m not really computer savvy. Thanks for all the great videos. I’m a big fan
Note that it does not come with the Marshall amps as default, you have to pay extra for those.
There's something that i really need to know..., your clean tones sounds very, very much impressive, i really need to know how d'ya achieve this kind of signal input. Please tell me; are you using some kind of valve preamp before or after your audio interface? Thx a lot for your very valuable time.
Cheers, just straight into a Ua Apollo
@@TheStudioRats Thx, Master.
will the amp room work in cakewalk?
I already had a pretty high opinion of Softube. I've owned a Marshall JMD:1 for a few years, and they did the modelling for that amp. I used it in rehearsal last week, and it sounded amazing. The only drawback is, it only has Marshall emulations, which is understandable.
Thanks for sharing
7:46 - Shreddy, shreddy Mr Drew! 😂
how do you feel it sits compared to say neural/scufham etc there's too many options now, I just want the best jcm800 possible lol
In my opinion this is the best JCM800. give the demo a try.
What Telecaster are u using?
Hey Paul! Have you tried the Mixwave Milkman plugin yet? I wonder what you think about that one! Great video as always, cheers
I haven’t as yet, I tried and shot a video of the Benson plug-in, I’ll check out the milkman, thanks for the tip.
Just released? I bought this same amp room version nearly 2 years ago. This looks like just a product repackaging exercise. The Marshall suite has been out for forever as well. Just fyi. :)
Absolutely, can someone Pl share if the sounds have changed at all?
amps dont seem to have changed but they were already really good and the new cabs really help the twins and ac30 which only had pretty weak cabs previously imo
@@protozoid4571 thanks!
It appears it's more a major workflow upgrade than an amp upgrade...
Sounds awesome Paul ! Whats your pic of them Vintage or Marshall ?
The vox was great and the hi watt with a pedal in front was fantastic, but I’m a Marshall fan.
Great demo thx! Does anyone know if you lose the original Marshall Cabinet Collection (fixed mic positions) when you upgrade to Marshall Suite? I’m sure the new movable mic cabinets sound good, but there are some great sounds in the original MCC too that I would hate to lose.
All the fixed IRs from MCC are now available as IRs and available in the IR loader in Amp Room, along with other IR packs from e.g. Kristian Kohle and more.
Brother help. My guitar making crazy high pitch sound when plugging in. 😭
Plug in is ok. In what kind of Software you plug it in? In a DAW Software? Sounds amazing!!
The DAW does not impart any sound.
@@TheStudioRats ok. And what Software do you use als a platform for the plug in ?
I was using Studio One, well worth checking out.
I have the Softtube Silver Jubilee that comes free when buying a Focusrite interface.
I have had a hard time tweaking that amp sim to soynd good. Ive gotten it close but it has taken a lot of adjustments to get any decent sounding Marshall tones out of it. I knownits the free version but i would think that shouldn't make a difference.
My Neural Soldano sounded amazing from the get go as well as my ML Sound Labs Amped Roots suite of amp plug ins.
Another one that I never could get working right is the THU plug in set up. This Amo Room looks very similar to the THU model.
I know what you mean. This is really worth looking at. It is different
@@TheStudioRats thanks.
Nice bit of kit Paul. Will you be diving deeper at some point. I’m interested in the cab & microphone options. Are we able to use more than one microphone on a cab for example on open back cabs can I mic from behind & reverse phase on a rear microphones cab in conjunction with front microphone ?
I’ll look into it John and get back to you.
nice tele!
Cheers
I was waiting for good Marschal sound.Softube just has killed BIAS Positive Grid, Amlitube 5 and Line 6 with sound quality like never before.
It really is fantastic.
Sounds like a Katana
Using a telecaster to test out metal amps? That's a new one 😂
With a good tele you can play every genre you want to play
@@rikardlundgren7779outdated mindsets
I think some people get stuck in a box, always good to look outside. Personally I think a Tele can do anything, Hell there’s even bands like biffy Clyro using strats.
The god of guitar software is Neural Amp Modeler 😉
Hard to beat free isnt it? Imagine if they put a profile search in it. I was A/Bing Neural with Tonex and both are great imo, but I think Neural had a slight edge.
@@masterofreality230 Actually in general we all have a computer and an interface, when you buy a pedal modeler at least they have an all in one, but software due to the prices doesn't make sense anymore. I also don't hear here that this sounds better than a neural plugin. better for us since nam came out the game changed forever
@@quiquepriore I just got an HX Stomp XL, and since I really dont take my gear anywhere, I am thinking about selling it. I have literally thousands of plugins.
And that thing is free. I really liked the omega and Friedman amp capture people did.
@@parmeshgurung I have tried the Omega in Tonex and I love it, but have not ran across the Neural caoptures of those two,
I'm not against the use of these but I don't like how the names refer to real Amps when it's just a load of digital information. I don't think they should be allowed to use the names of amps, models or even allude to them. And selecting virtual speakers is daft. The names should be just ''dirty guitar 1''.i think it deceives people.... I fell victim once to this kind of marketing when I bought Hughes kettner that professed to have a Marshall channel and fender channel and had very little in common with either.
Softube look at every component in a circuits of real vintage amps and they recreate them from measurements and don't really listen to them. They are practically more accurate than reissue hardware (because new old stock components isn't really a thing). The only flaws are not completely capturing every complex aspects of components like tubes behave when it comes to nonlinearities and such.
Their names are similar so that users can easily refer to their real life counterparts (especially for tone chasers) and know how to dial them since every single amp is different each other and has different knobs, tubes, etc.
No free trial? How incredibly lame. Without that... not interested.
There is a free trial actually. 22 days or something like that. It's reasonable.
You silly goose.
Did you you even try?
I did a free trial the day of release.
Helix Native: am I a joke to you?
When you are paid to do an ad, you cant title it "Is this the okayest amp sim" lol
This sim is very good Imo. This looks a great update as the workflow was a bit of a killer before! The upgrade price is very sensible now where as they were quite expensive before! What’s not to like?
@@pillowhead4000 I like Softube, I use their Saturation plugin. I just lean more toward profiles these days.
yeah new, came out in 2007
This is the new version released today
