Laboga Diamond Sound Suite: Boutique Amp Sims for Authentic Guitar Tone

The Laboga Diamond Sound Suite by Aurora DSP offers two meticulously modeled amp simulators inspired by boutique, hand-wired amplifiers from the Polish brand Laboga. Designed for guitarists seeking detailed control and realistic tone, these amp sims deliver a range of sounds from mid-heavy classic drive to tight, modern distortion.

Distinct Amp Models for Versatile Guitar Sounds

The suite includes two amps with unique characteristics. The first amp features a focused, mid-forward tone with a slightly spongier feel and a simple layout, making it ideal for classic rock, blues, and edge-of-breakup textures. It emphasizes feel and saturation with lower overall gain. The second amp is more modern and flexible, offering three gain modes: DS, Low Gain, and High Gain. This covers everything from clean-ish grit to tight high-gain distortion, with an open, controlled response and tighter low end.

Comprehensive Effects and Utility Modules

Beyond the amp sims, the suite provides four cabinets, four speakers, a pedalboard, a studio rack, an effects section, and useful utilities such as a gate and transpose function. Effects include:

  • Classic Chorus: Adds rich, shimmering depth by subtly doubling and detuning signals, perfect for widening guitars, lush synths, or dreamy vocals.
  • Waveform Tremolo: Modulates volume rhythmically with selectable waveforms from sine to square, enabling vintage pulse or experimental stutter effects.
  • Ping Pong Delay: Creates stereo feedback delay that moves repetitive sounds between left and right channels, adding spatial dimension.
  • Aurora Reverb: Offers versatile reverb settings from small rooms to vast caves with simple controls.

Guitar Tone Rack: Advanced Signal Chain for Refined Sound

The Guitar Tone Rack is a dedicated signal chain combining analog modeling and digital processing to produce punchy and refined guitar tones. It includes:

  • A classic 10-band graphic EQ with +/- 12dB gain, proportional Q, VU meters, and a drive module for vintage saturation.
  • An advanced signal processor to enhance low-end definition, add high-end clarity, and adjust overall feel.
  • A legendary FET compressor/limiter known for fast attack and transparent compression, ideal for punchy dynamics.
  • An optical tube-based compressor with warm, smooth character and slow attack/release for natural compression.
  • A final stage EQ for full mix control.
  • A built-in tuner supporting even the lowest guitar tunings for accurate pitch.

Additional Features and Compatibility

The suite also offers a Studio Environment Listening option in the standalone app, simulating the sonic ambiance of a recording studio—headphones recommended. It supports complete MIDI compatibility, allowing seamless integration with various MIDI devices.
