ThermVoltSilicon vs AmpGate

ThermVoltSilicon is a precise digital recreation of classic silicon diode-based overdrive circuits. It delivers the tighter, brighter, and more articulate character typical of silicon clipping stages, while faithfully modeling analog imperfections such as power supply sag, battery voltage variation, and temperature-dependent diode behavior. Built with the MIT-licensed Patina DSP engine, this AUv3 plugin combines circuit-accurate modeling with modern features for both vintage tone enthusiasts and contemporary producers. FEATURES • Silicon diode clipping with realistic forward voltage and temperature response • Authentic power supply sag and voltage variation (9V / 18V modeling) • Temperature control (15–75°C) affecting diode behavior • Inst / Line input modes with appropriate impedance and gain staging • Switchable Boost stage (+20dB) • Variable high-pass filter • Classic analog-style tone control • 2x / 4x high-quality oversampling • Very low CPU usage, optimized for iOS • AUv3 support with smooth parameter automation SUITABLE FOR • Electric guitar (tight crunch to singing lead) • Bass guitar • Synthesizers & drum machines • Keyboards • Vocals & parallel saturation • Lo-fi, indie, rock, and modern production COMPATIBILITY • AUv3 Plugin • iPhone & iPad (iOS 15+) • AUv3 hosts.

Every amp ever, in your pocket. AmpGate is a Neural Amp Modeler (NAM) player for iPhone and iPad: a real-time amp sim that plays exact digital captures of real amplifiers and full rigs, including the new Architecture 2 (A2) models, the most accurate generation of neural captures yet. BROWSE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF TONES Connect your free TONE3000 account and the world's largest tone library opens right inside the app. Search by amp, gear or genre, audition any capture through your own guitar before saving it, and build your collection with one tap. - NAM engine with A2 model support - Cabinet section with impulse response loader, browse TONE3000 IRs or import your own WAV files - Tone stack (bass / mid / treble), noise gate, input and output gain - Low-latency processing tuned for live playing - Import your own .nam captures from the Files app AUv3 PLUGIN INCLUDED Load AmpGate inside GarageBand, Logic Pro, AUM, Loopy Pro, Cubasis and any other AUv3 host. The app and the plugin share one library: save a tone and it's already in your session. Neural Amp Modeler is an open-source project by Steven Atkinson.
