MAGIX Vandal

MAGIX Vandal.

Vandal isn't your ordinary amp simulator. It ditches the typical "modeling" approach and utilizes groundbreaking Physical Modeling technology. This means every single component of a real amp – from tubes to speaker coils – is meticulously recreated in the software. The result? Unparalleled sound quality that feels and responds just like a real amp, perfect for studio sessions, band rehearsals, or live gigs.

Craft Your Dream Amp

Forget limitations! With Vandal's flexible amp and cabinet interface, you can mix and match components from various amps and speakers. This opens up a world of sonic possibilities, allowing you to tailor your sound to your exact preferences and playing style.

Handcrafted Tone, Not Emulation

Vandal doesn't try to mimic the sound of specific amps. Instead, it builds its sound from the ground up. Your signal flows through a virtual chain of stomp boxes, amplifiers, speakers, and microphones, creating a clean, honest foundation that reacts dynamically to your playing and instrument.

Intuitive Interface: Unleash Your Inner Rock Star

Vandal's intuitive interface is designed with guitarists and bassists in mind. It mirrors the way you interact with real-world hardware – tube amps, stomp boxes, the whole setup – making it easy to jump right in and start creating.

Stomp Box Heaven

Shape your sound with a massive arsenal of 24 customizable stomp boxes. Whether you're a metalhead, a funk maestro, or a jazz aficionado, Vandal has the tools you need to create the perfect sound. Overdrive, distortion, modulation, delay, echo – you name it, Vandal's got it. Plus, a 7-band EQ lets you fine-tune your tone to perfection.

Bring the Boom (or Thump)

Get ready to crank it up! Vandal's cabinet section features a wide variety of virtual speakers in different sizes (10", 12", and 15"), materials, and models, catering to both guitar and bass players.

Microphone Magic

Dial in the perfect sound with three meticulously modeled microphones (2 dynamic and 1 condenser). Adjust their position, distance from the amp, and volume to achieve the exact tonal character you desire.

Refine Your Sound Further

For those effects that work better after the amp, Vandal offers a comprehensive effects rack at the end of the signal chain. This gives you even more control over shaping your sound and taking it to the next level.
