All user reviews for the Bomb Factory SANSAMP PSA-1

The Bomb Factory Sansamp PSA-1 amp simulator plug-in was easy to install without any problems. I haven't had any compatibility issues with either the Pro Tools LE or HD systems that I have run this on. The interface of the plug-in is easy to follow and simply has eight knobs that control different parameters. The parameters the knobs control are pre-amp level, buzz, punch, crunch, drive, low, high, and overall level. I don't have a manual for this, so I can't say how helpful it is or not, but the plug-in is easy to use and you shouldn't need the help of a manual to figure out this plug-in.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

I am running the Bomb Factory Sansamp PSA-1 amp simulator mostly on a Mac Book Pro that has a 2.2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 4 GB of RAM. I run it in Pro Tools LE 7.4 that runs off of a Digi 002R audio interface. I have also run this plug-in on a Pro Tools HD system, and have never had any problems running the PSA-1 on either system. I am able to run a few of these at once without problem, and the plug-in has always run smoothly for me. Overall, the Sansamp PSA-1 is stable and won't give you too many problems, if any at all.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using the Bomb Factory Sansamp PSA-1 amp simulator for about a year and have found it an overall useful plug-in for using with electric guitar and bass guitar signals. Sometimes simply putting the plug-in on an electric guitar track will clean up the signal and eliminate noise. It has a lot of parameters which makes it a versatile plug-in capable of getting a number of different sounds. The price is really cheap and is worth it as a simple amp simulator that comes in handy more than you might think. Overall, the Bomb Factory Sansamp PSA-1 plug-in is a great option for professionals and amateurs alike.
