Critic Reviews

Waves Voltage Amps

soundonsound.com

This versatile plug-in impresses with its range, from clean Fender-esque tones to aggressive metal sounds. It boasts a user-friendly interface, low CPU usage, and over 400 presets. The Focus feature is particularly useful for tailoring tones to different pickups. However, it lacks built-in reverbs or tremolos, and some might find the drive sounds a bit gritty without extra EQ tweaks. Despite these minor drawbacks, Waves Voltage Amps is a solid choice for those seeking a wide tonal palette and simplicity in operation. Definitely worth checking out for guitarists and producers alike.
