Overview

Black Rooster Audio‘s guitar amp head emulation meticulously modeled after a very versatile, yet uniquely sounding low wattage amplifier the Black Rooster Audio Cypress TT-15 comes to you at an unbeatable price point: It‘s free! With its no-nonsense approach and only six intuitive controls, the Cypress TT-15 will help to get the job done right away, no matter if you‘re looking for clean through crunchy guitar tones or if you want to achieve biting, distorted lead sounds. We also included a simple 2x12 cabinet simulation that can be bypassed if you prefer other solutions or if you‘re feeding into an external power amp/cabinet stage.

Features

Authentic circuit emulation

Our real time SPICE type component based circuit simulation approach allows to authentically capture the sound and feel of the analog counterpart in all nuances. Every crucial part of the head, including pre- and power amp tube stages, the tone filter and the output transformer have been faithfully modeled and matched.

SSE2 optimized code

DSP operations are pipelined using the SSE2 instruction set. This ensures highest possible 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 poly-phase design. The oversampling is auto-adjusted to your session‘s sample rate to save valuable CPU power while offering the most transparent sound possible.

HighDPI / Retina support

All our plug-Ins support high pixel density on Mac OSX and Windows to bring you the most enjoyable user experience on high DPI displays. Please refer to your manual to find whether your DAW is HighDPI capable if you‘re working on Windows.

it’s really close to the real Orange Amp by Fabrizio (2025-10-09)

Amp sims by Michael Campos (2025-10-09)

"I have an old orange 100 watts Rockerverb MkII that I can’t really crank anymore. This amp does a good job of getting me to that sound in my head. I wish there was a clean sound too but that’s alright because it’s free!"

Amp Sims by Michael James (2025-10-09)

"I like this amp sim. I have an Rockerverb MkII that I couldn’t really turn on because it’s 100 watts and I have kids now. This gets me really close to the sound I have in my head. "

This is one of the best amps for punk music by Eegoal (2025-10-08)

"I was able to easily get Avril Lavigne's guitar tone with this amp, and it's also perfect for pop and rock."

Excelente emulación!! by Isaias (2025-10-08)

"Me agrada el sonido que puedo realizar con este emulador, desde algo que apenas caliente hasta un sonido bien saturado... no soy guitarrista dedicado al 100%"

Tiny Terror by AlpacArtist (2025-10-08)

"It has one of the highest plug [&] play and versatility factor out there. Capable of creating cool vintage tones without adjusting many parameters. Add you favorite third party IR's and you're ready to cover a lot of ground including bass guitars!!"
