    The amp sim sounds great! However, it has a darkness to it I can't seem to brighten it up unless that amp is that dark already. I think an update to the interface or making it a standalone plug-in would make it even better.

    The clean channel puts out amazing sounds - clear but picking up harmonics for a shimmering glassy sound, especially if you pair it with a good reverb it can create glorious textures. It is also lightning fast to load into the DAW and seems very light on taking up any processing power. I have a few other of the Brainworx amp sims, as well as Amplitube and Bias, but this has quickly become my go to amp modeller, for clean or for crunch, it's the best of the bunch.

    This is my absolute favorite virtual guitar amp! Its very versatile, from ultra clean, to ultra high gain, it does everyting and it does it well! I would be having serious problems if Id ever have to miss this amp.

  • Excellent crunch and clean tones

    Simply outstanding, no others words for it. The tones from this are amazing, they never sound muddy or artificial and it responds like a real amp. Of particular surprise was the response using third party IR’s. These really respond well, unlike others plugin amps, you can really here the difference. Perhaps the best feature is the ability to audition each IR to get that tone in your head. However there is one serious flaw, if you buy this you’ll be encouraged to buy other Plugin-Alliance amps. It’s reignited my GAS.

    The correct amount of boom, with a silky grain and delightful shimmer.

    The Engl E646 VS from Brainworx is THE definitive amp plugin. This is currently the most accurate amp plugin. It's realistic, versatile, and deep.
    This amp can do amazing cleans all the way to brutal metal. It even stands up to 9 string guitars! If I could only have ONE amp plugin, this would be the one.

    This amp has become my go-to plugin for high gain sounds; doesn't do too bad on clean either. Definitely not Fender clean but it's not sterile either. I have the Engl Powerball emulation that IK has in Amplitube which used to be one of my go-to's for high gain. The 646 has a cleaner sound whereas the IK amp sounds nasally compared the 646. I had a piece where I was trying to get an Alex Lifeson high gain sound (nobody has an H&K Triamp plugin); tried a couple of different amp models and this nailed it. As a byproduct it got out of the way tone-wise with the bass track in the same piece. Well done Brainworx.
