Mercuriall Audio Software announces new guitar amp sim “Spark”!

Spark is a VST/AU/AAX plugin that models four Marshall® tube amplifiers, four guitar cabinets, four overdrive pedals and a set of the most common spatial effects.
Spark is the realization of all our latest achievements in the field of real-time electric circuits modeling. First of all, it’s a tube push-pull power amplifier that is working with a reactive load (guitar cabinet), with negative feedback and electric feed chains. This allowed us to implement a truly realistic poweramp saturation (very important for the majority of the Marshall®-based amps), realistic work of the Presence knob and made possible to take into account the influence of the output and power transformers.
We have considerably improved the cabinet section. Apart from the smooth positioning of microphones, we added an option to mix sound of two mics. This allows you to find pretty much any desired sound. There are four cabs and three microphones at your disposal.
Despite the fact that Spark is an amp and cab sim above all, we gave a lot of attention to the FX section. There is a Noise Gate at the input, as well as a number of pedals: there are currently four overdrives, implemented with our proprietary technology of the electric chain modeling. As for the spatial effects - there are Chorus, Delay and Reverb.
Spark’s UI continues our approach of simple usability at no expense to a wide functionality. All main actions require just a single click. We pay a lot of attention to the design, that passes a lot of iterations of adjustments and improvements, offering you a very simple and functional solution.
Spark is planned to be released in Q4 2016.

Looks very interesting. Will there be a demo or a free "lite" version to try?

We plan to have a certain demo version. As soon as I have more details, I will definitely share!

We are extremely happy to announce a cooperation between Mercuriall Audio Software and Panda Sound.
From now on, if you purchase selected products from Panda Sound, you will get a discount for Mercuriall's U530 and vice-versa.
Here is how you can get a discount:
  1. If you purchase Vo’Devil Stokes project session - which is specifically tailored for the U530 sound (), you will get a 20USD discount on the full version of U530 ().
  2. The same discount will work if you purchase U530 first. You will then be able to save 20USD on the Vo’Devil Stokes project session purchase.
This is just the first set of products - more will be announced as soon as new products are developed.
Stay tuned, friends!

Whatsup!
Here is a short sample of a clean sound you can get with Spark. Built-in chorus, reverb and delay were used. No processing on the guitar track. Some basic VSTs on Master.

How does it sound to you? =)

There's a lite version of U530 with next month's Computer Music. 
Sure hope it's less lite than the lite one at Mercuriall HQ 'cause those knobs don't turn.
