Darkface ’65 (US)
The Darkface ’65 is a superclean classic American tube amp. This amp found its way into various musical styles because of its ability to preserve the guitar’s natural tonal characteristics.
The amp was designed to stay clean at very high volumes. Try playing clean arpeggiated chords on this amplifier and you will understand why it has been used on so many records.
2×12 DV 212 Greg Howe
2×12 Alnico ’57 (US)
4×12 Vintage (UK)
This 4×12” guitar cab is modeled after a classic British cab released in the early ’60s. If you’ve ever been to a rock concert, it is more than likely that you saw those cabs onstage.
This module will give your tone huge depth and tons of character. It is comfortable in most musical situations, but will really shine with the drive knob of your amp cranked up.

CM Plexiphone
The CM Plexiphone is the emulation of an overdrive pedal seeking to recreate the tone of a Carl Martin Plexitone. This is the main pedal over which Greg’s tone is built.
It contains a crunch channel and a high-gain channel, and on top of that it gives you up to 20 dB of clean boost in the clean channel. The crunch channel goes from subtle overdrive to hard-rock gain stage and the high-gain channel goes from rock gain stages to absolute meltdown with loads of gain and low end.
RSS Compressor
The RSS Comp is modeled after a classic vintage guitar compressor very sought-after by collectors and tone chasers. The compressor adds warmth and sustain to your guitar tone. Increasing the sustain knob will add a slight saturation to your clean sounds, giving players the feel of a warm tube amp.
Adding the RSS Compressor to your guitar effect rig can really make the difference and add a musical analog feel to your overall tone. When used in a lead guitar situation, the RSS Comp helps your notes sustain longer and feedback as they would when playing through a cranked-up amplifier.
7-Band GEQ
The 7-Band GEQ is modeled after a famous Japanese stomp box guitar effect manufacturer. This pedal is very easy to use. It offers seven adjustable frequencies without the complexity of certain studio rackmount equalizers. Each frequency can be boosted or cut by 15 dB. This gives you tons of flexibility and control over your guitar tones.
Adding the 7-Band GEQ after a distortion unit can also be very useful to eliminate unwanted noises by decreasing the higher frequencies. This is a must-have pedal for any guitar players wanting to shape their tone.
Plate Reverb
The Plate Reverb is powered by Overloud’s BREVERB. This effect reproduces the reverberation you would get by hitting a small steel plate under tension. This type of reverb was one of the first methods of reverberation used in the early days of studio recording.
This effect produces a short delay that works particularly well at lower settings. Increasing the effect makes the reverb produce unnatural tones. The Plate Reverb works well for cleaner tones and will find its place in your guitar rig, great for blues and jazz music.
Tape Delay
The Tape Delay is a classic delay designed by Overloud. In the early infancy of delay effects, the repetitions would be produced by recording and playing back an idea on a tape. This would produce a slightly altered sound to the repetitions as tape recording is not as accurate as what we would hear with digital recording.
The Tape Delay reproduces the sound played back through a tape. This type of delay is often considered warmer and more natural than what you would hear with a digital delay.
Tube Nine
The TubeNine is modeled after the famous Japanese tube enhancer guitar effect pedal. This pedal simulates the tone you would get with a warmed-up tube guitar amplifier. This stomp is great to add even more realism and feel to any of Overloud’s already super realistic models.
In addition to the tone control knob, the TubeNine offers a built in mid hump, which enhances the mid frequencies. This makes it a very useful pedal as it will help your guitar sections cut through the mix.

Octaver
The Octaver is modeled after a famous Japanese guitar stomp box pedal. Enabling the effect will double your signal an octave lower. This is great for heavy guitar riffs and will add an incredible synth-like tone to your musical lines. Adding the Octaver to a lead guitar solo will help it stand out in the mix.
This effect also works beautifully with clean tones. Try adding it to a single-note funk-rhythm motif for instant gratification. Use the Tone knob to shape the overall sound of the added octaves.
Mu-Wah
The Mu-Wah is packed with tons of settings that allow you to configure the type of Wah effect you are after. This module allows you to configure the filter and the sweep of the effect. The Mu-Wah is like having multiple Wah pedals in one. Once you have configured the module, you can assign a MIDI controller to any of its parameters.
Use the Mu-Wah in both clean and overdriven setups to make your guitar sing. Whether you are looking for a discrete Wah to enhance your funk rhythm sections or looking for a Wah capable of extreme sweeps, you should definitely check out the Mu-Wah.
AmpTrem
The AmpTrem is modeled after the classic tremolo effect as heard in classic clean American and British amplifiers. This effect works particularly well with clean guitar sections. It will add a very musical modulation to your sound. Different tremolo modes are available from which you can choose.
Each mode will give you different modulation curves from discrete mellow tremolo for clean jazz voicings to more pronounced tremolo effects ideal for single-note guitar lines. Combined with the delay pedal, the AmpTrem will produce a wonderful musical tone that’s great for complex chord voicings.
D-Delay
The D-Delay is modeled after a very famous stomp box pedal effect made by a very well known Japanese manufacturer. This pedal is a digital delay and will give you a very clean and precisely processed signal.
The effect offers a Tap function allowing you to match the repetitions to the tempo of the song you are playing. The D-Delay is a stereo effect and allows you to bounce the delayed track left and right, which works wonderfully on clean arpeggiated sections.
VariMu Comp
The VariMu Comp is an Overloud custom compressor inspired by some of the best studio compressors in the world. Using the VariMu Comp on your guitar tracks will thicken them and add warmth. This is a subtle effect that will make any tone more musical.
This module is suited for any musical genre. Using it over clean arpeggiated chords will help each note sound more consistent. Using it over a rich, distorted tone will help the notes sustain more and encourage natural feedback to occur.
Rich Flanger
The Rich Flanger was modeled after a classic boutique flanger pedal. Adding this module your guitar rig will produce rich, thick musical flanging sounds. The Rich Flanger effect is suitable for any musical style. Adding it in front of a clean amp will complement any arpeggiated guitar section.
Matching the speed knob to the tempo of the song you are playing will help your guitar track fit nicely with the rest of the instruments. Adding the Rich Flanger in front of an overdriven guitar amplifier will add character and life to your guitar riffs.
