The world's most accurate, musician-friendly amplifier,
effects, and signal processing modeled plug-ins
Softube was founded by "the hacker," the professor," and "the guitar player"—students from the Linköping Institute of Technology in Sweden (something akin to MIT with icicles). While conducting research into vacuum tube models, they discovered that the human ear ignores many of the fine sonic details found in traditional models, and instead zeroes in on the crazy stuff, which the ear finds pleasing. In musicianspeak, it’s why so much of the coolest gear has tubes. So modeling the
non-linearities of tubes, speakers, spring reverbs, power amps, and the like, was the musical path for the gang to follow.
The end result of those studies was a significant body of proprietary, patented technology, which the team implemented in products they developed for a number of highly-respected companies. Now they’re delivering a series of high-end, high-quality plug-ins under their own Softube brand.
