Kenny, Tukan Studios has a whole guitar suite in JS format completely free for Reaper users. Plus a ton of other great Fx plugins. I would love for you to show how to get the best out of them.
The Guitar Station is ok. I use it for gritty guitars. I think John (Tukan Creator) should improve on the pre-amp section on the gain driven amps. Clean and the effects, yes they are good.
Guitar Station 2 has been out for a while now, but thought it worth adding here. There are some awesome presets, and a lot of flexibility with different cabs & mic positions. The only thing I'd say is that many of the tones are a little bit "flubby/spongy" in terms of the initial transients and I didn't get too far with EQ'ing them. But that's likely down to my intended uses not lining up with those presets.
What a great video this is! Thank you, Kenny. I did not know about some of these FREE guitar amp/effects options, and your loyal followers have provided even more in the comments. What fun to see you playing some guitar here. Love it!
Great Video, thanks Kenny! As some other already mentioned, the Neural Amp Modeler by Steven Atkinson is a great option, and is Open Source, with more profiles that someone could need 😅, the community has created a ton of models that can be downloaded for free Hope you can take a look and make a video with your opinion Thanks again BTW I'm sure you already know, but the Tukan Studio plugins by John Matthews, with the Guitar station / amp, and in general are also a great option for Reaper that would be great if you can use in some of your videos
Boogex is still the best free plugin for rootsy/bluesy sounds, coupled with deelay slapback setting. I specifically bought an old peavey Vypyr 15 for direct recording. I got fenders and marshalls, but its not always convenient to record at my place with mics. The peavey is a steal..got it for $60 used..its got a dedicated recording output, run that into a DI then into the inteface..whisper quiet signal..pretty stoked with the sounds..probably one of the best modelling amps I have ever used and its from like 2008..crazy good deal. If this one busts will buy a new one..they still make them. My days of trying to get good sound from plugs is over. I tried proteus and neural amp..not impressed too noisy..too limited..something to watch for future developments though.
My favorite one is that one that Black Rooster Audio gives for free. It doesn't have that much options, but it sounds wonders. And that is all that matters:)
I've been using it for a month or two now. It's good. Load a plug-in instance NAM. Make sure your project sample rate is 48k (it's optimized for 48k). Also, it doesn't do stereo yet. Load an amp model. Many available at the tonehunt site. Choose a cabinet IR and either load it into the plug-in or use your on IR loader after the plugin. In some cases, the amp model may have been captured with a speak. In that case, you don't need an IR, but it still might be cool. So use you're ears. That's it. I've found some cleaner Fender amp models that I like. Also seems to be very popular high gain metal type players.
Does that come with trained models already? Is there a community to download models from? I thought it was like a bare bones software version of a Kemper. NAM clones your tone and that's it which is good if you have good gear already and want to use it digitally. The quality could vary widely and depend on a good trained/captured amp that already sounds like what you want. (Since it won't model power, preamp, and EQ behavior like a normal plugin.)
@@HCGonzalezJr87 there's tons of models to download (or sample your own), most are limited to 48kHz only though, and I don't think it can do stereo yet
The tech is fantastic. I have and use it now and then as well. With this, it isn't even *close* to being the best.Why? because you're solely relying on community sounds or your own captures - which in my case, using my Mesa + Captor and a plethora of IRs, I have no need or desire to model my amp. I've tried many many community models and you are locked at THEIR gain settings and I find way too many cats have far too much gain in their sounds thinking that it'll be "bigger and heavier" when in actuality, it does the opposite: It makes them small, over compressed and pinched sounding.
Nice ! Didn't know about most of these ! For all the OGs, there's also some cool "old" free ampsims/pedalsims/cabsims that still work pretty well from : TSE (the serina experiment), LePou (Poulin), Ignite Amps, Voxengo Boogex
As mentioned Tukan js guitar effects are great. May be a tad unusual but I prefer using a chain of the Kilohearts (free essentials) vst effect's on guitar parts to emulate pedal effects and light weight on the cpu
A really nice sounding free amp plugin: look up the FV-70 guitar preamp by Ronald Passion. It's just a simple Gain Bass Mid Treble Power Master interface. It doesn't do metal tones, but it does Fender Tweed style cleans nicely. I use it as a clean pedal platform when I just jamming so I can switch effects in and out. For recording I've got some other sims on hand for variety, but for a good realistic clean sound this is my favorite. The ACE tube combo plugin from Shattered Glass is another nice clean amp sim. It has no tone controls, and is heavy on processing, but it does provide some very realistic tube emulation.
Great primer on the free guitar amp plugins. When I installed Bias Amp and Bias FX2 (not free) I recall spending some time playing with buffers size and sample rate to get them sounding right with minimal latency. Also click the little speaker icon on your recording track.
Nalex amps, Vadim Taranov's amps... NadIR impulse loader, and you're set. Get Glenn Fricker's free V30 impulse response, and you can play metal all day long. 🙂 Seriously, get some good IRs. That's the one thing that really shapes the sound the most.
Once again, timely advice. I'm working on my Make Music Day song swap, and I needed an electric guitar accent. Going direct in just sounded dull, but I didn't want to drag out the fender amp and tweak. BlueCat had everything I needed to get some bite and harmonics into the track. Thanks again!
Free guitar plugins are cool. Airwindows has done interesting ones. The benefit being that they don't alias....It's amazing what you can do around a simple convolution plug and a good impulse response...mixing and matching. So many paid guitar sims alias hard at high gain settings. (Some do even light gain) Sometimes seems simpler just to mic a tube amp of you have one for anything serious. Or see if the plugin can handle Reaper's crazy offline Oversampling mode. Maybe find one where you can disengage the IR in the plug-in and put one on after the amp had been downsampled. Basically, i really like a guitar to feel fully analog. Aliasing is really audible on a lot of guitar Sims.
Came here to recommend the airwindows plugins as well. There are several *Amp Plugins, a Cabinet simulation plugin ("Cabs") and more reverbs/delays/... than most will ever use.
Aida-X is the only plugin working in Reaper on my linux pc in its .so vst form. It has convincing models, it's free and green (interface color). Thru Yabridge and Wine I get also some new and old (and good) win vst to work, like LePou SoloC, or the SimulAnalog Guitar Suite. The cool fact in the latter case is they are 32 bits plugin but the bridging from 32 to 64 bits it's done before Reaper by Yabridge thru Wine so no double triple plugins nested windows on the screen. Thanks for the instructive videos and viva guitar oriented content on Reaper Mania and viva Reaper Mania by Kenny Gioia
Hello!!! Excellent video, as always! I use several of the ones you mentioned in the video, but I discovered Neural Amp Modeler and now I only use that one. Greetings!!!
Guitar rig always sound to me like it has too much latency. It feels like I'm not the one playing at all. Amped Roots is awesome, I always reach for that one. STL Tones Ignite Emissary is also good, comes with a separate IR loader NadIR which you can use on any other amp sim you want. I haven't tried Neural Amp Modeler, it's free, and you can profile your own amps with it. For nasty tones i found Aurora Goblyn. Works great for bass also.
Great demo of these products - I've used the Kuassa Lite for years - very simple to use, no additional IRs needed. I also just discovered how great the Neural Amp Modeler is, and how versatile it can be depending on the profiles and IRs you use with it. Is there any way to only use the plugins in Reaper ( including the JS effects) to get a good modern Marshall/Meas tone?
Another productive learning experience via Kenny G... (not the sax guy)... Amplitube is getting downloaded as we speak. I am also quite fond of FA3 by Fretted Synth. Very versatile with lots of presets and stomp boxes, the only downside is it only comes in 32 bit. Every so often (but not too often) it will cause a crash but all in all it's worth it. Thanks again...
Hi, I'm a new Reaper user, how do you install these plugins in Reaper please? A step by step would make a really helpful and instructive video. Thanks.
Guitar Amp 3 by Plektron FX have the best Orange, Vox, Epiphone and Fender sims I have heard.. Peavey have a free version of ReValver which is pretty awesome too.
Great Stuff Kenny. You say you are not a piano player or a guitarist do you play any instrument? Me personally I was using Guitar RIg, Then switched to Amplitude now I use kuassa.
I understand the wish for free, but Reaper is not free either. A good amp companion to Reaper, which like Reaper, is very fair priced is Scuffham S-Gear. Likely one of the best options for a good amp-sim. Trey Gunn uses it for example. That already says something I think.
"I understand the wish for free, but Reaper is not free either" It can be used for free though... But i encourage everyone to buy the license and there is no reason for not doing so, considering the low price and what you get with it.
was curious of what software they had and how they worked and sound with guitar and this explained a lot thank you for this ps: sound like a guitar player to me :P
I'm new to reaper. I'm not a shredder.I would like to find a plugin for Mild Dumble Overdrive, Nice warm Neo soul rhythm sounds. And Robben Ford John Mayer type of leads. There are so many plugins available. Could yo save me some time and point me to a plugin that might be right for me? Thank you
Kenny every amp sim I use sounds unbelievable in stand alone but when I run it through my daw it loses volume and tone night and day,any idea what I’m going wrong no video on recording shows any types of adjustments
So I noticed that there's no stress on 3/4 of the way levels on these amps. Does it matter with these plugins? Should I go as hot as I can without clipping?
hello Kenny i use a lot of neuraldsp vst for guitars... did you test it yet ?? i make lofi and instrumental music what should i use to get the cleaner sound ??
Kenny I have a weird question: I have multiple FX Chains saved for my guitar sound and every time I create a new track and click on FX I have to load a plugin in order to even get to the "FX -> Add FX Chain" option. It's getting annoying and there must be a way to not have to load a "dummy" VST first.
Ok. Call me stupid but when I put a plugin on the "track effects" I don't hear it. If I put it on the "input effects" of course I hear it with latency. Kenny, you seemed to have placed the plugin on the "track effects" slot and we hear it straight away. What's the monitoring routing/system to achieve this?
Maybe there are Reaper configuration/setup issues? There's no special routing necessary to get plugins working. By default you should be able to add plugins just like Kenny clicking on the FX icon/sections. For tracks, buses, sends, all plugins go in the FX section. (In mixer view it's the top portion of the channel strip.)
@@HCGonzalezJr87 Yeah, no problem putting effects on tracks. If I have a track RECORDED and I put a "track effect" on it, fine, I tweak the effect while mixing, business as usual. What I DON'T get is That fact that Kenny put an effect in the "track effect" slot (not the "input effect slot") and was able to hear it, monitor it and, presumably record it in real time. When I do the same thing, I just hear the dry signal, it doesn't matter which monitoring mode I use (the little speaker button on the track). Most of the time I don't care because I record dry and put effects on later. But for things like amp sims, I would rather hear the amp as I'm playing. Reaper is vast and there is probably a "preference" I need to tweak for this and I just haven't found it.
I hate it when some of these plugins only install with EXE file and want to connect to the damn internet all the time. Guys make sure you have firewall installed and do not trust any software you see out there.
free VST's are such a pain in the ass! no i don't want to download a manager! NO I DON'T WANT TO GIVE OUT MY PAYMENT INFO FOR A FREE PLUGIN! no i don't want to sign up for a newsletter!

My favorite free set up is the Blue Cat amp + Nadir.
Nothing can beat it.
Amplitube 5 Custom Shop is a great starting point. I eventually purchased their interface and Max5 was included.
Nembrini Audio has solid free pedal emulation plugins. Big muff, klon, tube screamer, rat
Kuassa is great. The Neural Amp Modeler really is among the best and is free.
Great Video, thanks Kenny!

I've used that too and liked it pretty well for cleaner tones, but Neural Amp Modeler has been even better for that.

You should do a whole video on nam in reaper maybe use some effects i like the stock reaper chorus it sounds pretty good with high gain

Is it necessary to use IRs before the amp?
You never use IRs of cab/mic (or poweramp/cab/mic) BEFORE the amp.
Only AFTER, if the ampsim is only a preamp or a preamp+ poweramp.
