I'm excited to share that today, ML Sound Lab released Amped Volcano, a high-gain guitar plugin featuring a new modeling technology called VornAI, a hybrid between their Vorna technology and Neural Amp Modeler.

For folks wanting to hear more on the background, Mikko shared some thoughts in this YouTube video that I think is worth a watch:


As with a lot of these collaborations, Mikko and I started talking about NAM a long time ago--before many of the quality-of-life improvements that made NAM much more accessible. Early on, he was diving into the details and getting a handle on the tech. It's really fulfilling to see the things come to today and to see NAM in an ML Sound Lab product, having been a user of his products for years (I used to gig an Axe FX Ultra with his IRs).


It's rewarding to hear that NAM was able to meet ML Sound Lab's needs for Volcano, and I'm honored for them to choose it for their product. I'm excited to see what else we can do moving forward.


Get Amped Volcano here.


Enjoy!
