Hello, guitar virtuosos and sound engineers! Looking for a simple yet powerful tool for your digital arsenal? Introducing SoftAmp FM25 by AXP – a high-quality virtual-analog emulation of the legendary Fender Frontman 25R combo amplifier. This plugin is designed for instant access to great guitar sound.
The Fender Frontman 25R has gained popularity as a reliable practice amplifier. SoftAmp FM25 accurately replicates its key features: a 10-inch speaker, a two-channel structure, a versatile 3-band equalizer, and a classic spring reverb. This “all-in-one” solution is ideal for quickly recording ideas or live jams, without requiring complex settings. It has an intuitive interface that simulates a real combo amp, offering clean and overdriven sound, cabinet simulation, and reverb right away.
Functionality and Modification
The SoftAmp FM25 plugin has inherited the best features of AXP’s developments:
- Stereo processing.
- Efficient oversampling to minimize unwanted artifacts.
- Speaker simulation switch for using external impulses.
- Controls calibrated in dB for precise control.
Of particular interest is the “AXP Mod” switch. Activating it replaces the standard gain stages with vacuum triode models (based on the SoftAmp 3OD algorithm) and corrects the mid-frequency control operation. This opens up access to new, more “tube-like” sound shades.
SoftAmp FM25 by AXP is the perfect choice for guitarists looking for a fast, high-quality, and flexible tool for their DAW. Get the authentic feel and sound of the Fender Frontman with the expanded capabilities of digital processing.
