The effects pedal array is pretty good, and there's separate rack effects too. And from there you can change the room type, the mics, rooms mics, mic placement, and even individual speakers in the cab. You don't need a cabinet simulator because one is built in with many different cabinets. It has tons of amp models and they are like controlling the actual amp, even down to the back panel and the tubes inside for some. It's easy to use, but also very in-depth. But I would say, the best sounding (to me) and most bang for your buck is Amplitube 4.įull disclosure: I've only just started using it very recently, but I've been pretty pleased so far. too.Ī bunch of free stuff (Le Poulin, Nalex, Ignite Amps, etc)Įach one has its own thing that's cool about them. I play mostly classic/hard rock but dabble in metal, funk etc. Having good impulse responses matters a lot. Someone who does not need all that much might enjoy the straightforward nature of the NeuralDSP plugins for example.Ĭab sims are also massively important. There is no one plugin that is above all others, it's just different feature sets and workflows.
The cab sims are the main problem point of Helix Native so I replace those with the ML Sound Labs MIKKO cab sim plugin.
I use Helix Native because I bought it cheap since I have a Helix Floor which means you get a pretty hefty discount on Native, especially during their 30% off sales. I've tried many amp plugins and the only ones I really don't care for are Guitar Rig (dated), Amplitube (set up to sell you more amp sims) and Bias Fx (it always sounds and feels off to me). It's free and sounds pretty great for high gain. These are more like specific amps but they sound very good. All good, just need to find the ones you like. They make multiple plugins which have a narrower scope than the above. To me the top tier ones in no particular order are:
