Software Compatibility

Most software is compatible with both Mac and Windows computers, but check to make sure.

If you're using Pro Tools, AAX plug-ins (or RTAS for older versions) are what you need. Most other Mac DAWs support AU plug-ins. VST is compatible with a number of Mac and Windows programs. Be sure you choose plug-ins that work with your DAW!

Comprehensively Covers Your Guitar/Bass Tones

Capture the power and versatility of a fully stocked studio amp locker with the Waves Voltage Amps plug-in! This amplifier emulation suite begins with seven studio-quality amplifier emulations — five guitar models and two bass — lovingly crafted to mirror some of the most iconic plugged-in tones of guitar and bass history. A fully stocked selection of cabs, cab tones, and custom-made IRs allows you to further dial in your sound. Plus, no matter what style of pickup or guitar you run through Voltage Amps, the Focus control gives you the power to perfectly tailor each amp’s response to excel with full-range humbuckers, cutting single-coils, or any pickup in between. And that’s not even half of it — add in Voltage Amps’ 400-plus artist presets, stereo room emulation, cab bypass, and this plug-in might be the last amplifier emulator you’ll ever need.

Five studio-quality guitar amps to choose from

Voltage Amps’ five studio-grade guitar amplifier emulations have you covered no matter what style you’re recording.

  • Silverado: Fans of classic American cleans will find much to love in Silverado; it’s an excellent starting-off point for players looking to build an effect-heavy chain
  • Arena: From crunchy power-chord rhythms to screaming solos, Arena delivers a classic full-stack amplifier experience.
  • Royal-X: This one comes from across the pond with a chimey clean character that develops a warm gritty edge when pushed.
  • Blue Flame: Inspired by the boutique amp revolution, Blue Flame provides a uniquely modern tone to build your sound.
  • Aggro: The perfect choice for all-out metal mayhem and drop-tuned riffage.

Vintage thump and modern precision

Looking to bring the low end? Voltage Amps also boasts two world-class bass amplifiers covering your vintage and modern bas(s)es.

  • Vintage Velvet: Smooth, warm, and round — Vintage Velvet takes you back to the old-school, sporting a thumping tone that’s sure to add vibe to any track.
  • Dark Mass: This model is ideal for the modern bassist seeking a full-spectrum response, absolute precision, and an extra helping of articulation.

400-plus artist-curated presets

Voltage Amps comes equipped with more than 400 presets curated by some of the world’s top guitarists and producers. From metal icon Dave Mustaine to legendary alternative producer Butch Big (Nirvana, Foo Fighters), Sweetwater guitarists love how these presets instantly unlock record-ready guitar tones right out of the gate.

Since the early days of DAW software, Waves has been a dominating force in music and audio production. For those of us here at Sweetwater who've been recording since the industry switched over to computer-based studios, it's impossible to imagine sessions without L series Ultramaximizers, MaxxBass, and other staples. Since then, we've been impressed every time Waves has brought top producers such as Jack Joseph Puig and Chris Lord-Alge to Sweetwater to show off their next cutting-edge creations, and Waves is constantly adding new and innovative plug-ins to their catalog. And with cool new gear such as their SoundGrid series, Sweetwater engineers have discovered just how easy it is to use Waves plug-ins live.
