The Duet is inspired by a silverface 1960s amp that defined jazz, blues, surf rock, classic country, and 70s funk. If a sound could be described as "expensive-smelling cologne," this would be it. It’s pristine, massive, and crystal-clear. Steadfastly resistant to distorting, it adds an extra dimension to every note and has to be pushed hard to achieve overdrive. It sounds like your guitar, only more.

Deep, authoritative lows and shimmering highs, with the middle frequencies neatly tucked back. Be warned: with an attack that feels tactile, punchy, and immediate, this amp doesn’t hide your mistakes; it broadcasts them in high definition.

True to its counterpart’s mythical status as a pedal platform, the Ampknob Duet will take anything you throw at it just like the real thing. Be it fuzz, compression, or a clean boost - go nuts and make those emulated tubes work!

The Power of the Input Slider

The input slider is the ultimate secret weapon for sculpting your tone. Specifically calibrated to mirror the highly responsive frontend of a real amp, this control dictates exactly how hard your guitar hits the virtual tubes.

Keep it low to tame hot humbuckers and retain pristine, glassy cleans, or slide it up to find that elusive, touch-sensitive "edge of breakup" perfect for expressive blues and indie riffs. Ready to push boundaries? Crank the input to drive the amp to its limit and unlock tasty harmonics.

Additional Features

Ampknob Duet is powered by IRDX technology, giving the included cabinets or third-party IR a more true-to-life dynamic response.

New with this Ampknob is the ‘Room’ control. With it, you can easily blend in a sense of space and character. For more control over the ambient sounds within the plugin, you can also use the ‘Pan’ control (stereo output only) to pan your main guitar sound separately to the room and reverb.

Use it in your DAW, and you’ll find a handy tuner and comprehensive noise gate. Use it in standalone form, and you also get a powerful metronome and riff recorder. Perfect for practicing, sketching ideas, or capturing killer riffs without ever having to load up your DAW
