Amp Locker
What it is
Amp Locker is an amp simulation suite for shaping guitar sound with virtual stompboxes, amps, cabinets and effects. It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux as a standalone app or plug-in. The free download includes the Prestige 1950 amp, seven FX pedals, seven rack effects and 11 3D cabs with 11 microphones. Pedals and rack effects can be adjusted, and microphones can be moved around the cabinets. Other features include double tracking emulation, MIDI support, an IR loader and the 3D Cab Impact algorithm. Additional gear modules can be licensed individually inside the app. The subscription costs $5 a month and includes Amp Locker and Mix Locker modules, while excluding 3D Cab add-on packs and signature amp sims such as Berry Amp. Cancelling deactivates the plug-in. Optional extras include DSP and AI amp profile players. Listed plug-in formats are AU, VST3, RTAS and AAX. The license permits installation only on machines where the licensee is the sole user, and bars machines that could redistribute plug-ins to other computers.
