## What is AnyAmpIR?

I got tired of those amp sim plugins tricking me with different IR files then sell me as amp packs again and again, so I made this ultimate solution to rule them all.

With AnyAmpIR, I don't give you any amp, I give you the ability to play any amp immediately.

Hi, I'm Michael, I made a video series called GAS Therapy on my YouTube channel playpm, focusing on sharing cheaper and better music gear solutions, now it also becomes a plugin brand, I will continue to share my knowledge under multiple formats, stay tuned.

AnyAmpIR can be any guitar/bass amp you want, and it's super efficient. Just batch load all of your IR collection, SAVE AS PRESET IN DAW, then start playing, no more headache on endless knobs. It's also super light weight on CPU & ram & storage usage, basically a production monster for any guitar/bass based producer.

Why changing amp is important?
The tone of electric guitar & bass is massively shaped by amp & cabinet & mic, even with the same guitar + string + pickup + pedal settings + playing, you'll still hear totally different sounds out of different amp solutions. Exploring amp/cabinet/mic combo for different style could be the most fun part for any player, but the problem is not everyone can afford/store so many amps/cabinets at home, so here comes AnyAmpIR, allowing you to explore your tone unlimitedly, you can recreate your favorite amp/cab tone super efficiently, anywhere and anytime, made for musician, by musician.

What is IR?
Short for impulse response, which can keep the entire cable + amp + cabinet + mic's static EQ & compression  + room reverb information almost perfectly for your guitar/bass, how they will affect the tone are all saved within this IR file, which usually is just a 1 second tiny wav file around 20KB. And studio quality IR files are free everywhere nowadays, you can even make your own version. Although IR doesn't capture amp's distortion, but you can always pair overdrive/distortion with IR to dirt up the tone, which is really fun. IR is the most efficient solution to replace all of those stupidly heavy, annoyingly loud, living-space-robberingly huge, and unnecessarily expensive amps/cabinets, also those annoying amp sim plugins who just want to suck all of your money with IR presets and endless settings and knobs.

Why AnyAmpIR?
* No annoying in-app-purchase just for another amp/cab model, you have endless possibility
* No annoying online register
* No annoying anti-humanity learning curve
* No CPU & ram wasted for stupidly fancy UI which nobody can hear
* No more eyestrain, forces you to judge your tone by ears and brain
* No freaking 1GB just for a guitar amp! Only 7MB
* Precise amp tone replication from IR
* Elegant touch on classic amp looking
These are the reasons why I made AnyAmpIR, now I can get rid of all of those greedy companies, and you know who I'm referring to.

4 buttons:
* Batch Load File - support IR files in .wav/.mp3/.aif
* Previous Amp
* Next Amp
* Copy File Name - one day you'll thank me for this :)

2 knobs:
* IR Scroller - quickly switch between amps
* Output Gain - fine tune output volume

Others:
* Standalone supported (w/ keyboard shortcut)
* AUv3 supported
* DAW builtin preset management supported when in AUv3
* Inter-App-Audio supported in AudioShare & AUM
* Super intuitive to use
* Super light weight on CPU & ram & storage usage
* Doesn't duplicate any unnecessary meta files on your device
* Cloud drive supported
* One time purchase, no subscription bullsh*t
* Buy me a coffee supported through IAP
* Offline use supported
* No bass/mid/treble EQ or presence control, they're a joke in DAW

If amp tone replication is not enough for you, I got these amp themes supported to trick your mind:
Michelle
Finder Tweek
Finder Twin Delay
FOX
Mega Boogie
Pee-vee
London Town
Ampig

Sorry for my bad English, but amp theme will automatically update if you got the right keyword in your IR file/folder name ;)
