Ampeg SVT-VR Classic

The unmistakable sound of Ampeg’s best stage bass amps comes to your DAW

Capture the chest-pounding low end of Ampeg’s iconic big bass stacks

The SVT amps from Ampeg have long been a favorite of some of the most notable bass players out there, including Bootsy Collins, Darryl Jones, Michael Bradford, Chris Wyse and so many more. The tone of the SVT series is instantly recognizable, with a full supple bottom, and a satisfying growl in the midrange, setting the standard by which all bass amps are judged.

Stripped down to the essentials

The newly-released Ampeg SVT-VR “Classic” plugin produces the same authentic tone as the full version, but with only the essential features for incredible simplicity and ease of use. A single complete channel is included, with both ultra hi and lo settings, giving you everything you need to get the perfect bass tone without any distractions.

A powerfully simple FX Rack to tailor your tone

As you’d expect from a Plugin Alliance, the SVT-VR Classic comes with a customized FX Rack which includes features like a Power Soak for extra saturation and input gain control to perfect your gain staging. Take advantage of 3 of Brainworx’ advanced boutique recording chains to fit your bass sound perfectly into the mix.
