MAGIX Vandal

Virtual guitar and bass amplification thanks to MAGIX Vandal

What could be better than designing your own amplifier? With the program's variable interface for amplifiers and speakers, you can combine components from different amplifiers and speakers. This way you can customize your sound and manipulate it according to your needs.

Handcrafted. Built from the ground up.
The Vandal bass and guitar amp doesn't try to emulate the sound of an analog amp, but sends the plugin signal through its own virtual chain consisting of stompbox, amp, speaker and mic - All clean, crunch, hi-gain and lead sounds are formed by amps with emulated output. This gives these amps an honest, clean sound that responds to the musician's skill and the sound of the instrument.

The power of instinct.
The intuitive program interface is based on how professional guitarists and bassists work with tube amps, stomp boxes, and other hardware, and lets you get started right away.

24 Stomp Boxes

Develop your own sound with customizable pedalboards - whether you play metal, funk, jazz, or surf guitar. You can add up to four different effects pedals for overdrive, distortion, modulation, delay, echo, or a 7-band EQ.

MAGIX Vandal distorts guitars, basses, and everything around it with its heavy sound.

Now let's get loud! The Cabinet section in Vandal includes a range of virtual speakers in different sizes (10", 12" and 15"), models and materials for guitars and basses.
Microphones in a class of their own Change the position, distance from the amplifier and volume of the three microphones (2x dynamic and 1x condenser) to set the optimal sound.

Virtual effect rack at the end of the signal chain

For those effects that don't always sound good "in front" of the amp, we've included an additional, extensive effects rack at the end of the signal path. It's another way to customize the sound to your needs.
