PreSonus Ampire High Density Pack.
Load up your Ampire plug-in's firepower with the PreSonus Ampire High Density Pack, a high-gain expansion including three tube amps, three cabinets, and six stompbox effects designed for an unrelenting onslaught of metal guitars. The amps, cabinets, and stompboxes can be mixed and matched, allowing you to follow the designers’ lead or create your own combinations to craft a tone that screams just the way you like it.
From low-wattage, single-channel saturation to dual-channel, 10-tube intensity, the Ampire High Density Pack's amps deliver sounds that command attention. The effects help you stand out, too, with overdrive, boost, dual-band compression, shimmer reverb, and radical pitch-shifting stomps ready to amplify your performance. Whether you're using Studio One (version 5.1.1 or later) or any popular Mac/Windows DAW with Ampire, this expansion pack is your gateway to heavy, brutal, shredding guitar tones.
