A device, piece of software, or plug-in that emulates the coloration added to a signal by an amplifier, particularly an instrument amplifier such as those used with guitars and bass guitars. Amplifier simulators will typically emulate the effects of an amp’s preamp section, power amp section, any effects (such as built-in spring reverb), and the connected speaker and its enclosure or cabinet. Often convolution or modeling are used to generate the most accurate emulation.
