Neural Amp Modeler for Mac
A complete guitar rig. Load and play.
NAM Pedalboard runs your guitar through a full chain of studio-quality effects — compressor, drive pedals, four-band EQ, chorus, delay, tremolo, and reverb — all built around Neural Amp Modeler. Six factory sounds. Eight of your own.
Requires macOS 13 or later.
Everything in the chain
A complete signal chain from guitar in to audio out — no plugins, no DAW required.
Neural Amp Modeler
Load any .nam model to get the authentic character of real amplifiers and gear. Per-model auto-level helps keep switching sounds under control, and the manual AMP trim knob gives you the last word when you want to fine-tune the level yourself.
Three Drive Pedals
Katana Boost, BB, and Gold Drive — stack up to three overdrive circuits before your amp model. Switch the chain order with the Drive Order control for two classic stacking flavours.
4-Band EQ
Four bands tuned for guitar: 150 Hz, 425 Hz, 1.8 kHz and 4.8 kHz — plus a master level and six named presets. Position the EQ before the NAM as a tonestack or after the IR as a final polish.
IR and NAM Cabs
Use IR cabs or dynamic NAM cab captures in the cab stage. Load your own IRs or NAM cabs, use the built-in default cab simulation in IR mode when no custom IR is loaded, and balance loudness with the CAB trim control in either mode.
Studio Effects
Warm stereo Chorus. Analogue-voiced Delay. Tremolo with Tube, Photocell and Harmonic modes. We've given the Reverb extra love, voicing for a bigger, lusher feel. Spring, Plate and Hall options.
Scene System
Six factory scenes — Foundation Clean, Secret Slap Clean, BB Edge Rhythm, Funk Swirl, Continuum, Lead Push. Save up to eight of your own named scenes. A loudness-matching tool keeps scene levels consistent as you switch.
Tone3000
Browse and download NAM amp models from Tone3000 without leaving the app. Search by amp type, browse featured tones, and load directly into the signal chain.
Chromatic Tuner
High-precision pitch detection with cents deviation display and confidence metering. Mutes the signal while active so you can tune silently mid-set.
macOS utility for amp sim comparison
A/B your amp sims. Instantly.
AmpSwitch mutes and unmutes any audio app on your Mac — stomp-style. Compare two rigs live, switch between channels with a keystroke, no menu diving while you play.
Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
