Overview
Black Rooster Audio is proud to present the GA-GT2 - a versatile preamp emulation. Our newest guitar preamp sim is a must-have for every producer. It’s the fastest way to get the guitar, bass, or even vocal tone (try it) you're looking for - whether that’s a character-filled vintage tone or full-on heavy metal distortion. This versatile unit can do it all.
History
The unit which inspired the GA-GT2 quickly became a favorite among guitarists of all genres, upon being introduced in 1989. It’s been used by every guitar icon, from punk rockers to metalheads and country artists.
Due to its incredible versatility, it also became popular among bassists, and producers who use it to add warmth and saturation to drum and vocal tracks.
The sweet-sounding pedal is known for its broad array of options, along with its ability to capture a wide range of tones. It’s one of the most durable pedals on the market, which is why it’s so popular with touring musicians.
The GA-GT2 is a powerful yet lightweight plug-in, which is available in AAX, VST, and AU versions. Its powder-coated GUI was designed as 19-inch rack unit, allowing for the vertical stacking of multiple instances on top of each other, within your DAW. Enhancing your layered guitar sound has never been more fun!

Features
Cab sim bypass
This feature allows you to bypass the cabinet circuit emulation to use in front of your favorite amp plugin, just like a regular distortion pedal.
Authentic Baxandall tone control
Treble and Bass controls modify the shelving EQ in the same way as the original unit
Phase switch
This feature allows you to invert the signal to avoid phase cancellation when using the mix knob.
Mix knob
Blend the input signal with the distorted signal to get impressive results. Great for guitar tracks, but also for vocals, drums, and bass.
Authentic circuit emulation
Our realtime component based circuit simulation approach allows for authentically capturing the sound and feel of the analog unit as close as possible. All the crucial parts have been faithfully modelled.
SSE2 and Apple Silicon optimized code
DSP operations are pipelined using the latest SSE2 and Apple Silicon instruction sets. This ensures high performance operation despite very complex computations.
Auto-adjusted oversampling for maximum audio transparency
Aliasing artifacts are efficiently attenuated using a low latency linear phase Dolph-Chebyshev polyphase design. The oversampling rate is auto adjusted to your session's sample rate to save CPU while offering the most transparent sound possible.
HighDPI / Retina support
Our user interfaces support high pixel density on both Windows and Mac OS systems to present you with the most enjoyable user experience on high DPI displays. Please refer to your manual to learn whether your DAW is HighDPI capable if you're working on Windows.
