The ToneDeluxe is designed as a full analog tube amplifier from preamp stage to cabinet. Based on ECC83 and EL34 tubes, its analog time model design allows to reduce the delay of the signal processing and thus give a "pleasure of playing" for guitarists. It offers two independent channels : clean and high gain. The high gain chanel is versatile thanks to the DriveTone setting that cut/boost high frequency before the tone stack.

The VST is masterpiece as being a freeware product. Sounds very natural and vintage.
The VST has scaling issues (horizontal and vertical).

I love this little guy. It's sort of a one trick pony, but it does that trick extremely well (especially given that it's free). If you're looking for that Fender sound you owe it to yourself to take this for a spin.

Great sounding plugin, but when I try and load a second instance in Reaper (tested versions 5.29 and 5.7) the DAW becomes unresponsive.

This is a fab little plugin that enables you to concentrate on your playing rather than scroll through pages of settings. I wouldn't say it's the most versatile of amp sims but it gives you a pallette of great-sounding basic tones in a simple, uncluttered way. I did have a slight issue running at my lowest latency where the CPU was shooting to 50%ish when i adjusted the knobs, but increasing my buffer size fixed the problem and it's running well for me in reaper now, consuming 3-13% CPU (depending on settings) on my ageing i5 windows 7 machine.

Version 1.0.1 works perfectly on my computer. Nice sounds and many possible tweaks for cool ambient guitar as well as for metal rock...
My set-up: Windows 10 64-bit ; Reaper 5 and Mulab 7.

Merci les bretons ! Très bon son, cet ampli ! Un détail que vous devriez ajouter à la description, c'est que la DLL pour Windows de cet ampli est en 64-bit. Précisez-le dans la description (et remplacez aussi le logo Windows par le logo Win64 dans la rubrique Operating System de la présente page KVR) car aujourd'hui c'est un argument majeur pour que les musicos testent et adoptent les plugins VST...
it doesn't seem to output any sound for me in Reaper win7 64-bit.
Hi dryan, what is your sound card config please ? (sampling freq, buffer size nb of channel) you can find it in the right corner of reaper. Thanks.
Hi dryan there is an issue for now is you use 64 Samples (no sound) we will fix it asap.
The version 1.0.2 solves the issue.
Hi lostin70s, Yes, it works for me now and first impressions are that it sounds pretty good - however the CPU usage is spiking quite a lot (and that's not even on the HQ setting). Cheers though.
i think the CPU spiking was due to me running at too small buffer size, i've given it a proper fiddle now and it works fine.
The sound is good.
When adding a second instance of the plugin, the first instance creates hiss sounds. Might due to an accidental global variable of some sort?
thanks, interesting, put it in my bug list for the next release.
Crashes FL 12 instantly.
I'm not big 70-s fan, but the sound is awesome for some things! Hi-gain channel in default settings instantly gives me that fuzzy sound of Black Sabbat Paranoid. And clean channel is also good.
No 32-bit version. Ugh. Why not?
Hi all, with the new version 1.1.0 threre is a 32-bits version for windows .

When I load the ToneDeluxe (x86).dll using Windows XP, I get this error message "The procedure entry point GetTickCount64 could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll."
When I load the ToneDeluxe (x86).dll using the 32-bit Podium Free DAW on Windows 7 64-bit... it works. I love it. Great sound. Thanks very much.
When using Reaper version 0.999... ToneDeluxe (x86) doesn't even show up.
Hi there Folks with Lost in the 70's.
I love the plugin ...but it doesnt work in Logic Pro X 10.3 it operates fine in Garage Band but no Logic...
Can you help.
thanks, .
I really like the sound of this amp sim and i like that it is low cpu. But a big issue is that it sometime crashes the DAW (Reaper in my case) when loading an instance of the plugin into a project. It doesn't happen every time but it happens often enough to be a problem. I hope that the creator will some day manage to fix this but one can only hope.
