What ToneKnob TinyAmp does
The knob sweep is divided into four equal quarters, and each quarter maps to one channel: White Clean Amp, Blue Hot Blues, Yellow Crunch and Red Lead. The light ring changes color as the knob moves, so the current channel is visible without looking at a menu.
The first quarter is a clean channel described as thick and rounded, with adaptive EQ and a tube-style sparkle that the developer says suits single-coil Strat tones. Tilt EQ adds quick bass and treble adjustments on optimized guitar curves, and a built-in cab simulation can be replaced with an external IR loaded by the user.
A Room control adds an ambience effect with natural space and depth, and a tuner offers an adjustable reference pitch between 415 Hz and 455 Hz. A calibration control is provided to fine-tune gain structure.
Key features
- Single-knob channel selection. One knob moves through four quarters of equal size, and the color ring indicates the active channel: White, Blue, Yellow or Red.
- White clean channel. The clean channel is described as thick and rounded, with adaptive EQ and a tube-style sparkle; the developer notes it suits Strat-style single-coil pickups.
- Blue overdrive channel. The second channel is a touch-sensitive overdrive with bluesy grit and dynamic saturation, responding to how hard the strings are played.
- Yellow and Red high-gain channels. Yellow is a crunch channel with tight low end and Marshall-style mids, while Red is a high-output distortion intended for heavy riffs and cutting solos.
- Tilt EQ and cab simulation. Tilt EQ gives quick bass and treble changes on guitar-optimized curves, and a built-in cab simulation can load an external IR.
- Room ambience and tuner. The Room effect adds natural space and depth, and the tuner reference pitch can be set from 415 Hz to 455 Hz.
Use cases
- Fast demos and sketches. The developer lists fast demos, hotel sessions and quick capture of creative ideas as the intended use of the single-knob layout.
- Dynamic tone changes. Because transitions between channels are continuous, the knob can be turned during a take to move from clean to overdriven tones.
Compatibility
TinyAmp is available as VST3, AU and AAX for Windows and macOS. The minimum requirements are macOS 10.13 and Windows 7, with 4 GB RAM, and native support for Apple Silicon is listed.
Who it is for
Guitarists and producers who want an amp simulator with few controls for sketches and demos, and sound designers who want a compact channel-switching amp with an external IR option.
