AmpliTube Orange is an official collection of vintage and current Orange amplifiers and cabinets for AmpliTube Custom Shop, delivering faithful models of classic rock tones with flexible signal routing.
Purpose and Heritage
AmpliTube Orange brings the distinctive sound of Orange Amplifiers into the digital realm, offering guitarists, engineers, and producers authentic models of eight iconic amps and nine matching cabinets. The collection spans from vintage legends to modern favorites, capturing the raw, straight-ahead rock ‘n’ roll tone that has defined Orange’s reputation for over four decades.
Designed for use within AmpliTube Custom Shop, this collection lets you integrate genuine Orange gear into your existing virtual rig. Whether you are after a light squeeze of overdrive or a full-on distortion, these models deliver the characteristic Orange punch, making it a versatile tool for any rock-oriented production.
Key Capabilities
Each amp model is faithfully reproduced, down to the signature hieroglyphic control labels, ensuring an authentic playing experience. The included cabinet models offer a range of configurations, from single speaker combos to full stacks, allowing you to shape your tone precisely. With AmpliTube’s full-rig signal path, you can route your sound through tuner, pedalboard, amp, cabinet, microphone, room, and rack effects in any order.
The collection supports two separate signal paths that can be played simultaneously or combined to double the number of stomps, amps, cabinets, and rack effects, creating a monstrous rig. You can also mix Orange gear with other AmpliTube models to craft unique tones. Full MIDI compatibility means all knobs, controls, and presets can be assigned to a standard MIDI controller or IK’s foot controllers for hands-free operation.
Workflow Integration
AmpliTube Orange runs entirely within AmpliTube, so you get the complete signal flow: tuner, pedalboard, amp head, cabinet, microphone, room, rack effects, and output. This integration allows for extensive routing flexibility, letting you blend Orange’s vintage tone with other virtual gear in your setup. The two-path configuration is particularly useful for parallel processing or creating a layered, massive sound.
For live performance, MIDI compatibility enables seamless preset switching and real-time control over amp parameters. Whether you are recording in a studio or practicing at home, the plug-and-play nature of Orange amps translates directly to the software, giving you immediate access to their iconic sound without the need for physical hardware.
Practical Applications
This collection is ideal for rock, blues, and metal genres, where Orange’s driving overdrive and distortion shine. Guitarists can use it for songwriting, recording demos, or performing live with a DAW. Producers and engineers can employ the modelled cabinets to add authentic analog character to virtual mixes, while the flexible routing allows for creative sound design.
The variety of amps, from the Tiny Terror’s compact crunch to the Thunderverb’s massive low-end, covers a wide tonal spectrum, suitable for everything from subtle breakup to heavy riffing. With both vintage and modern models, it serves as a comprehensive toolkit for any musician seeking the legendary Orange sound in a software format.
