As Tim eloquently put it: this one f**ks. Everything about Tim Henson is distinct. His artistic identity is defined by an unrelenting pursuit of his own aesthetics. Many times deriving inspiration from the least obvious sources, his tone and style are, in every sense of the word, as unique as he is unapologetic about them. In a world where many try to fit by reiterating what has worked for others, Tim thrives in the unprecedented. Innovation and progress often necessitate a combination of brilliance, relentlessness, and a burning desire to obliterate the cutting edge. There aren’t many that evoke such traits as him.

John Mayer’s iconic tone, in one definitive plugin. When an artist spends decades refining a voice as personal and unmistakable as John Mayer’s, every detail matters. Touch, phrasing, restraint, and tone become inseparable from the music itself, shaped through years of writing, recording, and performance. That pursuit has resulted in one of the most extensive and carefully curated collections of guitar equipment in existence. Taken as a whole, John’s gear could live behind glass as a museum exhibit; rare, historically significant, and in many cases impossible to replace. But within that collection exists a far smaller group of pieces; the tools he reaches for instinctively, refined through constant use rather than preservation. John is also known as a committed purist, not out of nostalgia or resistance to change, but out of a deep respect for the guitar and its history. His approach celebrates the details: circuits, components, feel, and the subtle interactions that give sound its character. Any new tool, digital or otherwise, has to honor that lineage and meet the same standard of care and intent.

PLATFORM: AU/VST2/VST3/STANDALONE

The ultimate toolkit for modern metal guitar, as innovative and uncompromising as Misha himself. Few guitarists embody modern metal music quite like Misha Mansoor. As a founding force behind Periphery, his vision and creativity have shaped the sound of an entire generation. His influence extends far beyond riffs and solos, redefining how heavy music is written, produced, and performed. Misha is as much an innovator as he is a player. By pushing the boundaries of amp design and creating groundbreaking pedals, he has always pursued tools that unlock new possibilities. That same drive has guided every detail of this plugin. Archetype: Misha Mansoor X is more than an expansion of his iconic tones. It is an exploration of the unexpected, featuring experimental effects, unique amps, and a toolkit designed for players who share his restless curiosity.
