Klevgrand gets into the amp simulator game with Stark
Cabs, rooms and pedals onboard
Klevgrand has announced Stark, an amp sim that also features cabinet, room and effects pedal configurations.
Each component processes audio separately, so any number of amp, cab and room combinations are possible.
Klevgrand claims that Stark is unique due to the deployment of its own algorithms and not the more common convolution and FFT approach to amp modelling.
It also maintains that its own algorithms provide a “more natural response to dynamics over the whole frequency spectrum”, plus allowing greater fine-tuning over each individual profile.
Stark is available on desktop in VST, AU and AAX formats, and is currently on special offer for $39.99 (normally $79.99). An iPad AUv3 version is also available for $9.99 (normally $19.99). Check out the Klevgrand website for more details.
Klevgrand Stark features
- 10 cabinets of various sizes and sound
- FX Board with four slots (14 effects available)
- Six room types with configuration options
- Plenty of factory presets covering most genres and styles
- Ultra low latency

“A wealth of features not seen before in a Klon-style pedal”: Walrus Audio’s Voyager MKII overdrive/preamp takes Centaur stage – equipped with footswitchable parametric mids, it promising “mythical magic” and absolute clarity
I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
