Sarban Amp is a digital guitar amplifier developed by George Nerantzis in collaboration with guitarist Nikos Sarbanis. It’s built for players who want a focused, old-school thrash sound with fast response, tight low end and clear mids. The design stays simple so you can get to the tone immediately without wading through menus.

Core Amp Tone

A high-gain circuit voiced for downpicking, fast alternate picking and classic metal rhythm work. Punchy midrange, solid palm-mutes and no harsh top.

Integrated Tools

Booster, ideal for tightening the front end without excessive brightness.
Gate, tuned for clean stops and precise chugging under high gain.

Cabinet Section

Comes with IRs captured from SM Custom Cabinets loaded with Celestion V30s, recorded at Mousiki Paleta Studio using a clean, controlled signal chain. Multiple voicings available for different mixes.

Built for Real Playability

Developed directly with guitarist Nikos Sarbanis to make sure the tone reacts to real hands, not presets. What you play is what comes out, from riffs to leads.

Simple Interface, Mix-Ready Results

No unnecessary options. Just the core amp, essential tools and cabinets that sit in a mix immediately.

VST3 for Windows, macOS build coming soon.

Questions:

1. What sort of copy protection do you use?
2. How many IRs are included in the product?

Sounds great in the video, btw.

Thanks so much for checking it out, really glad you liked the sound.

The plugin doesn’t use intrusive copy protection. There’s no iLok or online activation, you just install it and you’re ready to go. This keeps things quick and hassle-free for legitimate users.

The current version includes 3 carefully-shot impulse responses that cover the core tonal range of the amp, the same ones used in the demo video. More IRs are planned for future updates as the library expands.

If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out.
