01Overview

AmpKnob Trivium Lead focuses on lead guitar sounds that sit on top of a rhythm guitar mix. Bogren Digital describes it as more than an amp model, since it also includes a chorus/doubler effect called Chorey and a delay. Both effects can run in stereo for wide sounds. The plugin uses the company's IRDX speaker modeling technology, which is designed to make the cabinet respond dynamically like a real speaker. The standalone version adds recording, a metronome and a tuner.

03In depth

Lead Tone Character and Built-In Effects

The plugin is built around blistering leads and melodic parts. Bogren Digital says its tonal character helps guitar solos stay clear above rhythm guitars.

Beyond the amp model, the chorus/doubler effect Chorey and the delay are included as core parts of the tone. Both can be used in stereo. An open button reveals extra settings so you can fine-tune the effects for a track.

IRDX Speaker Modeling and Recording Tools

The cabinet and microphone chain was selected and dialed in by producer Jens Bogren. You can disable the cab or load your own impulse response inside the plugin.

The IRDX technology adds dynamic speaker behavior to static impulse responses, using machine learning to reconstruct the difference between a real cab and an impulse response. The standalone version also includes built-in recording, so you can capture ideas without opening a DAW, plus a metronome with adjustable meter, accents and automatic speed increments, and a tuner.
