Amp & IR Modelling

The core amp models cover clean, classic, modern, high-gain and British-style tones. The IR section provides 1024-sample resolution and supports third-party impulse responses, allowing you to build a direct rig around your preferred cabinet sounds.

Live, Studio & Silent Practice

Use the NGS-6 directly into a mixer or PA, connect it to a recording interface for studio work, or use the headphone output for silent practice. The IR output can be configured independently for different direct and amplifier setups.
