Neural DSP Mesa Boogie 2C+ plugin

Has anyone tried this plugin yet? I saw Rig Exchange has a couple of profiles from it already. They’re charging a hefty price for this plugin.

I haven't. But if you listen to pro-paid youtubers they will tell you it feels like the real amp. Just like they always do.

Is it a Profile or a Plug-in?

Usually there is a free trial right?

I tried the plugin last night and it does sound pretty authentic. More so than the Choptones profiles due to actually being able to control it. I know Mesa have had a hand in it somehow and it really feels like the lead tones were spot on. Even the Metallica capture setting sounds pretty close. A good plugin but as usual NDSP has overcharged for this at €99. I’ll buy it fully when it comes up on sale.
Also it took me a while to find the presence knob (round the back of the amp for some reason).

It needs IRs so you really benefit from it too. The 3 cabs and x many mics won’t help sell it. Happy to see this come out but damn lower the price and start packing more cabs.

They do have a trial and I was going to try it out for fun. However, they want you to register and set up a bullsh... iLok account.

They all do it. No matter if it is a amp sim or another plugin. They want to spam you until you open your wallet and then will spam you with their next product.

They were sending me click-bait emails before it was announced like it was some big secret. I thought it was a new profiler or something. A plugin?
