Definitely all I was hoping it would be, the tones you can get are really very good, if you don't have it....try it......you'll buy it.

THIS THING ROCKS, .

I personally feel this is the most versatile Amp sim Amplifikation has out there, I'm pretty sure I have all of their amp sims, and they all sound good....but this one......when I heard this one, it actually made me look up at it with eyebrows raised, this one is clearly, and audibly the best sounding Amp they have put out to date in my opinion, nothing else sounds like it, I literally have thousands of dollars invested in amp sims, and this one stands alone, out of all of the ones I own, it is the first one that has made me pause, and look up, and say wow......no kidding....check it out....I have no doubt you'll agree.

Without a doubt, this thing has Umph.......It sounds good with Humbuckers, or single coils.....I'm very happy with it.

Test driving this plug-in, I quickly appreciated the ability to add or subtract distortion by switching it on or off. This increased focus and adds a vintage vibe and roundness. I felt the MP5 has a clear sound even with extreme boost or cut. More important, the user interface is crisp and easy to see, as well as get around.

In terms of comparable analysis vs. a real hardware tube eq, I didn't have that opportunity. I would guess it is close with regard to the eq curves available but the anomolies of pure tube audio are very complex to model, even in 64-bit.

Overall, the MP5 does the job well. Thickening kick drums and bass guitar. Enhancing and scooping mids on guitars. Adding high frequency without harshness. All a win with this plug-in.

Would I use others, maybe. I will find many uses for it and the precision of the interface makes it fast and efficient.

Kuassa's Amplifikation Vermillion is a great sounding emulation of a vintage tube combo amp. Rather than emulating a specific amp, Vermillion, to my ears, does a nice job with a range of clean to crunchy tones reminiscent of a lot of Fender tube combos. The clean tone sounds nice and crisp like a Fender which I like - I don't think it does the sterile clean of a JC-20 nor does it do the brash jangle of an AC-30, but if you like Fender deluxe reverbs or Rivera amps, you will like this plugin. The Spring reverb sounds nice, the tremelo sounds good and is sync-able. The more distorted presets also sound pretty good to me. My only gripe is that there is not a ton of tweakability between the presets - the gain knob and the eq knobs don't affect the tone as much as a real amp, so you really need to explore the presets to find a sound you like, rather than tweaking from scratch. That said, I do really like the sound of this amp, especially for 60's inspired tracks or cleaner post-punk and indie sounds.

Sounds great but the 'clean' signal isn't clean (seems to be a common ailment). Need to hear a clean signal to know what this would do with my guitar signal.

I love it. The processing is absolutely transparent. It behaves exactly like the tone controls of very-high quality analog preamps. I use it as a tone control to tame some older analog pop music recordings. It runs as a plug-in in PureMusic on an old MacBook used as media server for my main Hi-Fi stereo system at home. Its CPU load is very low. And it's free! Highly recommended.

Sehr realstischer Sound und mit dem richtigen Treiber auch keine bemerkbare Latenz.

Funktioniert gut als Standalone-Version ebenso wie als Plugin.

Auch das Feature mit der Impulse-Response ist super.

Die Installation war easy.

Kann man weiterempfehlen.
