Download HERE and register your copy on a ikmultimedia site
Many moons ago, Duo opened an insulting nag screen any time you clicked on something only found in full versions, which was most things. It was so annoying I had to dump it. Don't know if such is still the case. The IK sounds are fine. But I like the FreeAmps for combo of sound and ease of use, and the newest version of rakarrack for linux. For 'Real' guitarists, and tonecones, Shred, and the entourage from AcmeBarGig, Poulin, and LePou may be the best
available. 8)

I'm sticking with FrettedSynth's FreeAmp (I'm using 2SE)- I'm no guitar virtuoso - I just record simple rhythmic licks, but this gives me all the sound-shaping I need, has everything on one page, and is free.

I want to try FreeAmp3, but Frettedsynth's webpage seems to be down. Anyone?
:-) glad to hear they are still of use to people. You can DL all my plugins at http://rekkerd.org/fretted-synth/ will link frettedsynth.com to this page over the weekend

You are too modest. I think I am not alone in always using and appreciating your work. I for one am very grateful - thanks!

Just grabbed FA3 and have a few hours free this evening - can't wait to jam!

:D

California Sun has a great clean sound. Very clear. Studio Devil kicks ass for gritty distortion. The Univibe in the Simulanalog Suite is worth the whole bundle by itself, and the rest of the suite rocks, too. FreeAmp2 was one of my favorite FX plugins for quite awhile, and I made a soundset for it. I don't think you can find FreeAmp2 anymore, though.

ARE YOU JOKING ?!?!?!
Of course people still use them. They have just one reason to do that, THOSE ARE AWESOME PLUGINS !!!
Also, I would love to host them on my website if that would be ok with you :D
>> FreeAmp3... It is still alive, kicking and rocking!... One of the best, imho.
TY Sennor DeHelian!

Though, I still can not figure out how to save my own presets and add them to the list it comes from factory, ... any help would be very very welcome (a duh is allwoed :p)!!

:-) Thanks

For the preset question you can't add a preset direct to the .dll file, but you can save a .fxb bank file with your own presets and load it up any time you want to use your own preset bank in FA3.

If not, we made you your own forum at AcmeBarGig. Either way, there is a forum there dedicated to you whenever you need it or just want a second home to hang out at...You're always welcome there man...:)

Hello Ken

Yeh got all the files up at http://rekkerd.org/fretted-synth/ I do appreciate the offer to help, some great people still left in this world. Will have to visit the forum, let me know the url? BTW looking forward to the new version of Shred, nice stuff you have with that one.

The version of FA3_full on the rekkerd site has a bug I will fix today. Went to play the lead to Soon by Yes yesterday using the enveloped preset and found the gate attack don't work in that version (worked on all the FX and messed up :oops: ) will have v3.6 up soon.

Thanks Joe...I know you'd do it for me too..:)
Here's the URL...One of the forum members actually already posted your new link there...

As always, looking forward to all your releases Man..:) and thanks for the Shred compliment. Speaking of that, we FINALLY have our new tonestack in place and passed by the beta testers. I have been a month actually I think its closer to 2 months on it..I don't think there is a filter I did not try in it! We have been trying to get to the upper frequencies without excessive hiss, and between McGyvering different filters in place we finally got it. Thats something our stuff has always lacked, whereas yours has excelled, especially in the cleans...We always had that "wet towel" over the speaker sound..

So, one more tonal thing to do and we're almost ready for Public beta. I am just trying to get the Bright control for the VOX-ISH head, Honken, once thats done Giddy up, I am gonna drink the hell outta some beers..:)
