Metal producer Jens Bogren and guitarist Jeff Loomisย teamedย up with Joey Sturgis Tonesย to develop theย Toneforge Jeff Loomisย plug-in, with three new virtual amp setups. And to make the deal even sweeter, there is a greatย introductory price to launch this new bundle.

Toneforge Jeff Loomis

Jeff Loomisย is a monster player with some epic tones. His work with both Nevermoreย andย Conquering Dystopiaย has some fantastic guitar tones, and trying to capture those tones takes some hard work.ย Luckily, famed producer and recording engineerย Jens Bogrenย was on board for this latest Toneforge project and helped bring this software bundle to life.

Jens is known for his work with Sepultura,ย Kreator,ย Paradise Lostย to name only three of the many monster metalย bands on his resume.ย So for players trying to cop Jeff Loomis’ recorded amp tones for their DAW, theย Toneforge Jeff Loomisย package is a good start.

Three Amps

The package gives you access to three distinct amp setups which should cover all your bases when recording. The Lead Channelย l is dedicated to the heavyย shredder sound. It’s full-on distortion, and has a rotary control. Then there’s aย Clean Channel for crystalline clean tones, perfect for intros and interludes. Theย Rhythm Channel isย specially designed toย handle low-end tight riffs, and has aย tube emulationย thatย can be switchedย fromย 6L6sย toย EL34s.

In addition to the three signature amp models, the bundle has a range ofย virtual cabs, including aย dual cab modeย for the first time.ย With it you can edit the guitar and all other sounds on two levels at the same time, or pull them apart in the stereo width.ย There is also aย Matched Cabinets featureย and theย option to import your ownย IRs. So a lot of very useful tools for tailoring your recorded guitar tones.

Effects

The package offers four core guitar effects to complement the virtual amp rigs. These include theย GTR Compย (compressor),ย Overdrivenย (overdrive),ย Sky Boxย (reverb) andย Echo Manย (delay). The effects come withย post-amp processing, so you can process the signal further at the end of the signalย chain.ย This also includes theย 4-band EQย andย compressor, which should make it easier to get that real life-like amp sound you are chasing, within your DAW.

Overall, this is a pretty comprehensive set of tools for getting a modern heavy guitar tone. And if you check out the demo videos below, you will hear exactly what I mean. Ola Englund gives it a really good review as well. I would suggest that you watch all three videos to get a good overview of what this package is capable of.

Joey Sturgis Tones Toneforge Jeff Loomis runs asย VST2, VST3, AU and AAXย onย macOSย (10.10 to 11.X – Big Sur is supported via Rosetta 2, native M1 support is not yet available) andย Windowsย (7 or newer).ย A freeย iLok accountย is required for registration.

Introductory Deal Price

The icing on the cake is the introductory pricing offer, which takes the regular $149 price tag down to only $59. At this price, I think is a fantastic deal considering all the very useful tools and tones on offer.

RRP – Introductory pricing USD 59, regular pricing USD 149
