One Pedal, Endless Possibilities: Shape Your Sound with NAM player

NAM: The Heart of Your Tone

At the core of the NAM player is the Neural Amp Modeler (NAM), an open-source project developed by Steven Atkinson. NAM has rapidly become the gold standard in amplifier capture technology, renowned for its ability to deliver the most realistic and authentic amp tones available today. By leveraging advanced neural network algorithms, NAM faithfully replicates the nuanced characteristics of real amplifiers, providing a level of sound quality and responsiveness that sets it apart from other modeling technologies.

With the NAM player, you gain access to this cutting-edge technology in a dedicated hardware format. Its compact dimensions of 188 mm x 120 mm x 56 mm (7.4 in x 4.7 in x 2.2 in) allow it to fit seamlessly on any pedalboard, making it a space-saving yet powerful addition to your setup. The NAM player isn’t just an amp modeler—it’s a complete rig solution, powerful enough to perform with on stage without needing any additional effect units.

Explore every amplifier you’ve ever dreamed of, with countless free models available online—like those from tonehunt.org—and premium, high-quality captures from sites like amalgamcaptures.com. The open-source nature of NAM encourages a thriving community of creators and users, constantly expanding the library of available amp models.

Out of the box, the NAM player comes loaded with a solid foundation of high-quality, professionally captured amp models, so you’re ready to plug and play immediately. (Click here)

The best part? All of this runs simultaneously with ultra-low latency of under 1ms, ensuring a smooth and responsive playing experience.

Advanced IR Loader: Full Rig Signalchains at your fingertips

The NAM player features a powerful Impulse Response (IR) loader that supports IRs up to 4096 samples in length, providing incredibly detailed and accurate cabinet simulations.

It comes pre-loaded with a wide selection of standard cabinets and microphone combinations, so you have a rich palette of tones at your fingertips from the moment you start.
  • 1×12 closed EVM12 – E906/SM57
  • 2×12 open Alico – E906/SM57
  • 4×12 1960 G12M – E906/SM57

  • 4×12 V30 – E906/SM57
  • 8×10 SVT – D112/E906/SM57

To further refine your sound, the IR loader includes low-pass and high-pass filters, allowing you to fine-tune the frequency response to suit your specific needs. Whether you’re looking to tighten up the low end or smooth out the highs, these filters give you precise control over your tone shaping.

Flexible routing tips (Click for more…)

One of the standout features of the NAM player is its flexible hardware routing. This allows you to output a signal with the IR applied via the XLR output directly to the front-of-house (FOH) system, while simultaneously sending a signal without the IR through the line output to a power amp. This means you can deliver a fully processed tone to the audience and a raw signal to your on-stage equipment at the same time, without any additional gear. It’s perfect for live performances where you need different signal paths for FOH and stage monitoring.

60s Convolution Reverb: A World First in Hardware

Introducing the world’s only hardware-based Convolution Reverb with up to 60 seconds of reverb time. The NAM player comes equipped with a wide array of built-in reverb types, including classic halls, various spring reverbs, and plate reverbs.

You can also upload your own Reverb IRs, allowing you to take your favorite reverb from your DAW and use it directly on the NAM player. Export your preferred reverb plugin as IRs and bring your unique ambient sound wherever you go. This feature alone sets the NAM player apart, giving you endless possibilities to craft your soundscapes.

Additional FX: Expand Your Sonic Palette

Beyond its impressive reverb capabilities, the NAM player offers a suite of built-in ambient effects that further enhance your sound:

  • Delay: A high-quality digital delay with up to 2 seconds of delay time, offering everything from modern pristine echoes to vintage tape warmth. Adjustable high-pass and low-pass filters let you dial in the exact tone you need. The modulation feature adds that extra character, and at shorter delay times, you can even achieve chorus and flanger effects.
  • Tremolo: A classic tremolo effect with a carefully selected waveform for smooth, musical modulation. Perfect for adding rhythmic pulses or subtle movement to your playing.

Make Music Whenever You Want, and Be Silent Whenever You Want!

The NAM player’s Noise Gate / Suppressor is optimized for high-gain setups, offering precise control over unwanted noise while preserving your tone. With a threshold adjustable per preset, you can fine-tune the gate to suit different instruments and playing styles.

Instead of harsh gating at the threshold, the NAM player uses a gradual, exponential reduction in volume as the signal approaches the threshold. This allows your sustain and subtle dynamics to shine through, ensuring your playing retains its full character—even with the gate engaged. Play freely without unwanted noise, and enjoy the silence when you need it.

Additional Features: Tuner, Stage Mode, and More

To round off the package, the NAM player includes features that make it perfect for both studio and stage:

  • Precision Chromatic Tuner: With an accuracy of +/- 0.1 cent, the built-in tuner ensures your instrument is always perfectly in tune. It operates seamlessly with low latency, so you can tune up quickly and get back to playing without delays. Accessible via a long press on the footswitch, it’s ideal for live performances where every second counts. The adjustable pitch reference range from 430-450Hz caters to custom tuning preferences.
  • Stage Mode: Designed for live use, Stage Mode displays preset numbers and names in a large, easy-to-read font. Potentiometer inputs are deactivated to prevent accidental changes, and you can quickly scroll through presets using the rotary encoder.
  • 128 Customizable Presets: Store and recall your favorite sounds with ease. These presets can be accessed via MIDI, allowing seamless integration into your setup. Every parameter is also MIDI CC controllable, providing total flexibility to adjust and automate settings from any MIDI-compatible device.

Direct Access: Instantly Adjust Key Parameters

The NAM player’s user interface is designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind. Key parameters are accessible directly through dedicated kobs, allowing you to make quick adjustments on the fly without any hassle. For more in-depth control, the versatile parameter rotary encoder lets you fine-tune additional settings with just a twist.

What sets the NAM player apart is its lack of deep menu structures—everything you need is at your fingertips, laid out intuitively. You’ll have the entire system figured out in just a few minutes, even if you’ve never used digital effects before. No need to dig through manuals or get lost in confusing submenus. The NAM player makes powerful effects easy to control, so you can focus on your music, not the interface.
