UAD Chandler GAV19T

Developed by Brainworx, the Chandler Limited GAV19T Amplifier plug-in for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces is an exacting emulation of this ultra-responsive, dual EL84-powered boutique guitar amplifier:

• Inspired by British classics such as Vox and Marshall — and lesser-known gems from Watkins and Selmer — the Chandler Limited GAV19T Amplifier goes beyond a simple "clone," offering infinitely tweakable, three-dimensional tones that brim with character.
• Use your Apollo to track through a class-A, all-tube, boutique amplifier "in the box," or re-amp your sounds with any UAD-2 hardware.
• Audition 75 different Recording Chains hands-free with a selection of mics, cabinets, and high-end outboard gear.
• Fine-tune your sounds with an onboard FX Rack, including noise gate, EQ filter controls, and host-syncable lo-fi delay.
• Tweak the tube power amp and preamp sections for unlimited sonic possibilities.

Chandler Limited — A Legacy of Tone

For over a decade, Chandler Limited has produced a stunning lineup of handcrafted mic preamps, EQs, and compressors from their storefront shop in Iowa. The company's dual EL84-powered, 19-watt, class-A Chandler Limited GAV19T Amplifier continues their unsurpassed dedication to tone and ingenious circuit designs that combine vintage flavors with hip tone sculpting options.

Choose from 75 Recording Chains

The Chandler Limited GAV19T Amplifier plug-in offers features not found on the original hardware, greatly adding to its versatility. The FX Rack sports an onboard noise gate, host-syncable lo-fi delay, Power Soak, and pre/post switchable EQ filter controls. But it's the 75 Recording Chain presets that give you the ultimate in flexibility. Captured through Brainworx's ultra-rare Neve VXS 72 console, you can audition your sounds through a variety of vintage mics, cabinets, and outboard gear. You can even scroll through Recording Chains in one, two, or four bar increments — keeping your hands on your instrument while auditioning tones.

Dial-in Tube Preamp Dynamics

Use the Input and Bias controls to tweak the GAV19T Amplifier plug-in's tube preamp section. These controls not only offer myriad tonal shades, they also greatly influence the amp's interaction and response with your playing touch. Play harder, and the Chandler gushes with dynamic, touch-sensitive grind, or lighten up your attack, and the tones morph into sparkling clean textures.
