What Amp Room is
Amp Room is Softube’s guitar and bass platform for shaping tones from modeled amps, cabinets, pedals, microphones, and studio effects. Its five suites cover ENGL Savage Mark II, Marshall, Vintage, Bass, and Metal, with different equipment combinations in each. The Marshall suite includes officially licensed Marshall amps, and the platform also includes licensed studio effects from Tube-Tech, Empirical Labs, Trident, and other makers. Suite Mode groups selected gear, while Studio Mode gives users further tone-shaping control. Suite listings include a custom IR loader, eight IR Producer Packs, customizable signal chains, and cabinet impulse-response captures with movable microphones. Suites can be expanded with other Amp Room Suites and Amp Room Ready Softube products. Amp Room runs as a plugin in a compatible DAW host, not as a standalone app, and supports AU, VST, VST3, and AAX formats on macOS and Windows. Use requires Softube and iLok accounts and internet access for downloads and license management.
