Ace by Shattered Glass Audio is a masterful digital emulation of a legendary 1950s American all-tube, tweed, 5W amplifier. Designed to capture the authentic warmth and character of the original, this plugin is enhanced with two common amplifier modifications: feedback adjustment and the addition of grid stopper resistors. For purists seeking the untouched vintage sound, both mods can be deactivated to restore the original amp's tonal essence.

Ace stands out with its switchable speaker emulation, offering you unparalleled versatility in tone shaping. Whether you’re aiming for the raw, unfiltered sound or the nuanced depth of speaker emulation, Ace provides the flexibility you need. Additionally, the plugin supports selectable oversampling rates of 2x, 4x, or 8x, ensuring pristine audio quality tailored to your project’s requirements.

With its intuitive controls and conservative CPU usage, Ace is exceptionally user-friendly, making it an ideal choice for both live performances and re-amping scenarios. Compatibility is seamless across platforms, supporting Mac (OS X 10.7+ with VST and/or AU 32-bit or 64-bit hosts) and Windows (XP / 7 / 8 with 32-bit or 64-bit VST hosts), ensuring it fits effortlessly into any production environment.
