The legendary sound of the Bogner Ecstasy guitar amp, now available in plugin form. With its unique multi-channel design, the Ecstasy can easily pull off a huge range of clean to high-gain tones. We've meticulously recreated this boutique amp down to the circuit level, giving you its signature tone right in your DAW. From crunchy rhythm tones to buttery-smooth leads, Shreddage Amp XTC will shine in any mix.

Legendary Boutique Amp
Widely-regarded as one of the finest boutique amps, the Bogner Ecstasy series has been used by such revered artists as Steve Vai, Buddy Guy, Steve Lukather, and Walter Becker.

With Shreddage Amp XTC, we've painstakingly modeled this shining example of German engineering down to the individual tubes and circuits, giving you a $4,000 amp in plugin form.

After a decade developing our flagship line of Shreddage virtual guitars, we sought to provide a best-in-class, native amp plugin for both real and virtual guitarists alike. The Bogner Ecstasy – treasured by guitarists across the world for its versatility and pure sound – became the natural choice for our first amp. Its reputation as a miraculous “holy grail” of amps has been cemented by musicians who rave about its pure, rich tone and how it nails both stellar cleans and killer high gain sounds – all in a single unit.

To reproduce the sound and range of the original as accurately as possible, the amp's signal path has been modeled to the precision of individual tubes and circuits based on the original circuit diagram.

Shreddage Amp XTC delivers all the astonishing range, standout dynamics, and clear, defined tones of the real thing. Put it through its paces across pop or country or rock or metal, and, sound after sound, it will shine.

Along with the exquisite amp model, Shreddage Amp XTC comes loaded with pedals modeled after our favorites like the Tube Screamer, MXR Distortion, and Klon Centaur overdrive, plus essentials like three-band EQ, analog-modeled BBD delay and chorus, and reverb.

There are both pre-amp and post-cab pedalboards with 6 slots each, so you can use whatever pedals you'd like in any order.

Naturally, XTC also packs a set of custom impulse responses (IR) ranging from modern 2×12 and 4×12 cabs to vintage and British models. 13 unique cabs are included, recorded with up to four mics each (SM57, U87, TLM103, R-121) and two positions (on/off-axis).

You can even turn on two cabinets at once and adjust the volume & panning between them to sculpt the perfect tone. Naturally, you can load your own impulse responses as well.

Browse the included presets – from clean to high gain – to quickly find a tone to fit your production, or craft your own from scratch. Quickly hone in on your perfect sound using the built-in, easy A/B comparison buttons.

Plug in your real or virtual guitar and soar with the legendary tone of the Shreddage Amp XTC!
