AmpKnob BDM Bundle

The Ampknob BDM Bundle is the new standard for classic and modern British rock and metal tones. Inspired by truly iconic amps known for their gold faceplates, this is the quintessential bundle for nailing the most definitive tones in music.

In the BDM Bundle, you will find three distinct plugins, inspired by three legendary amplifiers. Each plugin offers a slice of history, channeling iconic tones from the 1970s to the present day.

This amp carries the raw spirit of punk rock from the ’90s and early 2000s. Pulled straight from the studio of a legendary Swedish band, its battle-worn tolex tells a story – rumor has it, the scars were inflicted during a gasoline-fueled act of pure stage aggression.

Evolving through countless mods and chaotic repairs, this amp shaped the punk to come.

It’s unpredictable and unmistakable.

In more recent times, it has become one of the key workhorse amps at Fascination Street Studios. It delivers everything from ballsy crunch to crushing, raw distortion. This old dog needs no new tricks – there’s plenty of bite to go with the bark.

Ampknob BDM channel jumping

Need an extra kick? Flick the channel switch to engage the old school “jump cable” method.

The original amp has separate cable inputs for channel one and two. By connecting them with a cable, you can both channels at the same time for an extra gain boost.

Emerging from the depths of the 80s, this is potentially the most iconic amp of all time. The 800 Badboy offers both a classic rhythm tone, and an unforgettable lead tones heard on countless hit records.

However, this is not just any old 800. Nicknamed “Badboy”, this is an amp from the personal collection of guitarist Euge Valovirta. With military-grade 6550 tubes and a custom 140-watt transformer from Finland, this amp is literally bursting with character, tone, and depth.

Toggle the “FX” switch on, select the Lead cab, and you’ve got a dialed-in lead tone with delay and reverb – perfect for shredding your next solo.

The BDM 800 Badboy is truly the ultimate all-rounder. No wonder it’s been a guitar-tone staple for the last 40 years!

Effects

Itching to fine tune the delay and reverb? Clicking on the front panel’s “FX” tape reveals additional settings for adjusting the details of the reverb and delay effects.

Four channels, two matched cabs, a pedal boost, and reverb – is this the most versatile Ampknob ever released?

The BDM 410 JVH, inspired by the sound of contemporary gold-plated amps, encompasses the tone of this iconic British company in the 21st century.

The amp captured is a tried and true tone monster – used extensively on Opeth’s Watershed. Offering pristine cleans to buttery leads and everything in between. BDM 410 JVH is the go-to amp for modern British guitar tones.

This modern amp has it all: clean, crunch, overdrive. When high gain is not high enough, kick into the fourth mode for an extreme overdrive.

Plug In, Rock Out

As with all Bogren Digital’s Ampknob series plugins, the three Ampknob BDM plugins are extremely easy to use and provide a distraction-free path to album-ready sounds. Jens Bogren has poured his 20+ years of experience into crafting sounds that just work, allowing you to focus on the music

Buy Three, Pay for Two

Buy the Ampknob BDM Bundle and get all three plugins for the price of two. Or pick your favorite and buy it separately.

IRDX Included

The cabinet section is powered by Bogren Digital’s IRDX technology, which adds a true-to-life dynamic response to the included speaker models. In fact, IRDX affects any cabinet IR you load into the plugins, so they will have a more vivid and dynamic response compared to using them in your standard IR loader.

Standalone Versions

All three amps come in standalone versions in addition to the plugins you can run within your DAW. This allows you to fire up an amp sim fast when you just want to play or practice without launching your DAW. 

The standalone versions include a metronome and a very handy riff recorder — so when your noodling results in a killer riff, you can capture it on the spot without launching your DAW and setting up tracks. When you’re done, just drag the sound file into your DAW to add other instruments, etc. The riff recorder is also great for practicing with the built-in metronome. Both the plugin and standalone versions include a tuner and a noise gate.
