Nembrini Audio has launched a new audio plugin that aims to offer a classic guitar tone, upgraded using powerful modern software. Drawing inspiration from Tom Scholz’s celebrated Rockman X100 guitar pedal, the Rockdude X1000 effect plugin is an advanced audio processor.
The original Rockman X100 was renowned in the 1980’s for its signature arena rock tones: crystalline cleans, crunchy harmonics and shimmering modulation. Its distinctive calibrated compressed sound and bucket-brigade chorusing can be heard on many iconic rock recordings of this era including bands like Boston, Def Leppard and ZZ top.
The Rockdude X1000 plugin builds on the original capabilities of the Rockman X100 with several modern enhancements to offer musicians a versatile and powerful tool which blends classic tone with modern functionality.
Rockdude X1000 Guitar Amplifier features
- Classic Tone: Faithful recreation of iconic 80s guitar tones.
- Pre-Stomp Effects: Noise Gate, Filters, Wah, and Booster pedals for dynamic tone shaping.
- Tone Stack: Amplifier-style equalizer with interactive frequency bands.
- Cabinet Simulation: Cabinet emulation for direct-to-mixer authenticity.
- Impulse Response Loader: Supports external IRs for extensive customization.
- Chorus and Delay: Rich chorus modulation and rhythmic delay effects with precise controls.
- Post-Amplifier Effects: Studio-quality Hall Reverb and Graphic Parametric Equalizer.
- Flexible Routing: Customizable signal chain for ultimate tonal flexibility.
