Flying Haggis - Virtual Guitar Amp
Standalone + VST/AU plugin | Windows & OS X
New low price of $29 (previously $99).
Flying Haggis is a great sounding, expressive virtual guitar amp with a no-nonsense design and a character all of its own. Rather than follow the current trend of simulating existing hardware, Dave (our technical architect) designed this amp the old fashioned way - using his ears. And since Dave likes playing blues & rock, that's what Flying Haggis is really good at.
Flying Haggis received a Guitarist Choice award from Guitarist magazine, with a rating of 4.5/5.
There are NO sound clips here. You wouldn't go into your local music shop and ask to listen to recordings of their amps - you'd pick up a guitar, plug in and start strumming. So go ahead - download the Flying Haggis demo, plug in your guitar, and get playing. Then you can truly appreciate what a responsive little amp this is.
Why Flying Haggis?
After days searching for a suitably impressive name with which to embellish our finest amp, we had it narrowed down to DGA10FXi or Flying Haggis. Since we believe this business takes itself all too seriously sometimes, we went with the latter for a bit of a laugh.
Flying Haggis - play him and enjoy.

MIDI Control
If you prefer to control your audio software with hardware knobs or sliders, Flying Haggis can make you happy there too. Thanks to db audioware's easy-to-use MIDI Learn feature, it's simple to map any on-screen control to your favourite external MIDI control surface.
And if live performing is your thing, just hook up a MIDI pedalboard to remotely switch banks & presets, or tweak settings in realtime.
Totally Believable
For any skeptics who doubt the existence of flying haggis - we offer absolute proof in the form of a high resolution photo of the litle guy, snapped as he soared above Dave's keyboard one misty morning. A copy of the snapshot is taped to the amp for your viewing pleasure.
We rest our case.
