Magix has announced the release of Vandal, a virtual (bass)guitar amplifier effect plug-in for Windows and Mac.

Vandal is a unique virtual guitar and bass amplifier for PC and Mac that avoids working with simple impulse responses. Every individual step – each tube, every amplifier stage, even the speaker coils – is virtualized.
Compare our sound to the others, and you’ll hear a more nuanced and authentic result.

Vandal also offers detailed effects and stomp boxes (several overdrive and distortion effects, different compressor effects, EQ, chorus, phaser, wah-wah, delay, reverb, lo-fi and many more) and advanced microphone settings in an easy-to-use interface that lets you forget that you are using a software amplification.

Vandal has a very low CPU consumption and can be hosted as a VST plug-in (Windows), or as a VST/AU plug-in.

Vandal is available to purchase for PC and Mac (VST/AU), priced at 169.99 EUR / $199.99 USD / £169.99 GBP. On Windows Samplitude 11 Silver is also included.
