The Sonatina Orchestra Module puts the Orchestral samples by Mattias Westlund into a single VST Module for greater convenience. The whole ‘Rompler’ weighs in at a touch over 1 gig and since each instrument loads separately it should never take over 250 megs of memory (the choir is big). Most instruments use about 50 megs.
There are 20+ instruments including a soloist for every major instrument except the Viola and Double Bass. There are sections for all the important instruments including the Viola and Double Bass. Articulations include Pizzicato for the string sections and Staccato for the strings, brass and flute sections. There is also plenty of percussion along with a piano, harp and choir.

Sonata is a VST soft-synth for strong single-shot leads and pads. The distinctive character of Sonata makes it adept at strings and lots of simple subtractive sounds, while also specializing in sparkly and glassy mallet sounds, deep basses, and warm and rich mid-range chromatic inventions.
Sonata features two separate but similarly controlled generators, one for the sound’s immediate attack and another for the fundamental tone. Both consist of rich harmonic spectra which are filtered to provide desired overtones. Each possesses its own exponential decay envelopes for amplitude and filter, and its own ADSR envelope.
The output from these is then fed into a little black box—a complex setup of delay devices set relatively for each note that creates a complex comb-filtering effect. This stage shapes the sound, emphasizing desired frequencies and providing richer post-filter overtones, similar to the way an instrument’s body will influence its sound.
There are three global effects: a cross delay, distortion, and a reverb.

SoftDrive GV is a virtual-analog model of the Marshall “Guv’nor” and “Guv’nor GV-2 Plus” guitar distortion effects. The Guv’nor is a solid-state distortion pedal first issued in 1989 to recreate the sound of a cranked up Marshall stack in a small stomp-box format. It became rather popular in the 90’s and is still used widely nowadays for its quality high-gain sound and a its tonal versatility. It was re-issued in the early 2000 in an updated housing and incorporating a new “Deep” control to mimic the effect of a JCM2000’s “Deep” switch.
This VST model is a tribute to the original effect and models the circuits of both the “vanilla” Guv’nor and its modern GV-2 variant.
SoftDrive GV expands on the original design and brings in new possibilities unthinkable of outside of the digital realm. In the spirit of my prior creations, this plug-in also features a few things to visualize what’s going on inside the box.
UI Controls
The effect’s controls are broken down into 4 sections:
- Six control knobs of the original analog effect.
- Four switches to toggle different stages.
- Four sliders to tune the physical parameters.
- Four buttons on top to control the VST plug-in.
1. Knobs:
- Gain – input gain, also affects the pre-emphasis filters.
- Level – output attenuation, frequency-dependent (see “Bright”).
- Deep – low-end resonance, also gives a slight top-end boost (GV-2 only).
- Bass – low frequencies in the output signal.
- Mid – middle frequencies in the output signal.
- Treble – high frequencies in the output signal.
2. Switches:
- Mode – switch between GV-1 and GV-2 circuit models.
- LEDs – toggle the LED clipping stage of the circuit.
- Bright – toggle the treble roll-off of the “Level” control (The famous “C22 Mod”).
- Power – toggle the whole effect on/off.
3. Sliders:
- Voltage – power supply voltage (the default is 9v).
- Fidelity – Op-Amp’s open-loop gain non-linearly from 100 to 200000 (default is 200000).
- Scale – “time scale” of the model, effectively shifts the frequency response.
- Mix – dry/wet mix.
4. Buttons:
- About.
- Check for updates.
- Toggle HQ mode (oversampling).
- Toggle Stereo mode.
UI Visualization
The plug-in UI has 2 areas that visualize the model:
1. Overdrive Stages – features an icon for each stage where saturation occurs:
- OpAmp A.
- OpAmp B.
- LEDs.
2. Filtering Stages – features two logarithmic plots that show the amplitude-frequency characteristics of the filtering stages:
- Pre (Input filter + OpAmpA + OpAmpB).
- Post (Tonestack + Deep + Output filter).
Installation
Unzip the archive and put the “AXP SoftDrive GV.dll” or “AXP SoftDrive GV x64.dll” to your VST folder. Make sure to select the one appropriate for your system (Win32 or x64).
Notes
- Enabling the HQ (oversampling) mode introduces an 8 sample delay. It won’t be compensated by the DAW. It will be fixed in future releases.
- This plug-in requires the Windows Imaging Component library. It’s included in all Windows versions starting with Windows XP SP3. If you are using Windows XP SP2, you can get it as a stand-alone library here.
- It is my hobby to develop VST audio effect models. I’m not getting paid for it and I use my own limited spare time to do this work. If you like my projects and would want to encourage the future work please consider doing something from the following:

SoftAmp PSA is a virtual-analog guitar pre-amp supplemented with noise gate and compressor, all modeled after famous guitar gear that needs no introduction.
At its core there are 5 distortion stages. First three are based on op-amps with zener diodes in the feedback chain, while the last two are just op-amps being overdriven into saturation. They are followed by tonestack, speaker simulator and an output level control. Each overdrive stage has a distinct frequency shaping quality according to their names. See the EQ plot in the bottom right corner for details.
All stages are modeled as nonlinear filters with their outputs depending on both the frequency and the amplitude of the input signal. It gives the most accurate digital representation, compared to cascaded filter/static waveshaper approach.
In addition to the basic controls, there are two more knobs that control the speaker simulator parameters – Shape and Rolloff. With both knobs at 0, the speaker simulator is completely bypassed (for example, to be used with external impulse loader).
Giving even finer control over the gain structure, there are two more buttons – Asymmetric and Soft-Clip. The former applies to the zener diode stages and replaces the default 4.7v/4.7v zener pair with intentionally unbalanced 3.3v/4.7v pair to saturate the signal with even harmonics. The more the first three stages are overdriven, the more pronounced is the effect. See the clipping LED indicators to have a feel of which stage gets the most saturation from the signal. The Soft-Clip function applies to the two overdriven op-amps and changes their open-loop gain from 1 million to just 200. This effectively makes the transition from linear to saturated region much more softer, making the distortion less harsh and also helping the fading notes sound smoother.
The PSI Denoiser noise gate has a handy “Learn” function. Don’t play anything on your guitar and hit the Learn button. As soon as the LED goes off, the gate threshold would be automatically set to your noise level. The noise gate is applied directly to the input signal.
The Squeezo Range compressor is applied to the signal right before entering the PSA pre-amp. It’s a very nonlinear, but musical sounding device. It acts as both upward and downward compressor depending on the gain and bias setting. In the original device those controls were not available for user adjustment.

SoftAmp GT is a virtual emulation of a well-known analog guitar amplifier simulator stomp-box. The prototype is a solid state circuit that uses op-amps to saturate the signal and moderate filtering to shape the tone throughout the signal path. The speaker simulation is achieved by a steep low-pass filter as well as some middle-frequency manipulation to resemble different microphone positions. All controls of the original device are faithfully reproduced in this plug-in in addition to some unique ones described below.
AMP – general amplifier family:
- Tweed – classic American clean-sound amps.
- British – crunch and moderate gain.
- California – modern hi-gain amp with a deep low-end.
MOD – gain structure of the amplifier:
- Clean.
- Hi-gain.
- Hot wired (same as hi-gain but with a high-freq boost).
MIC – virtual microphone position:
- Classic – far from the speaker.
- Center – the most bright setting.
- Off-axis – slightly offset microphone that provides smoothed high-freq response.
The original stomp-box was somewhat criticized for having a symmetrical hard-clipping saturation and there were a lot of attempts to modify the circuit to provide smoother tube-like sound by the community. Variations included using different op-amps and using a bipolar transistor to introduce the asymmetrical clipping. This plug-in takes this concept further by introducing a special control:
CLIP – clipping mode:
- Normal – standard hard-clipping modeled after the TLC2262 op-amp.
- Soft – abstract symmetric soft-clipping stage.
- Triode – virtual 12AU7 triode stage.
The most interesting is the Triode setting. It effectively replaces every op-amp in the circuit with a triode stage accurately modeled using the same engine used in the SoftAmp 3OD plug-in. It will perform asymmetric soft-cliping with dynamic behaviour that depends on the tube overdrive level that will produce a moderate amount of even harmonics. The overall difference is subtle, but it’s there. A good test would be listening to the effect applied to the sinusoidal input.
Another option is a very efficient 16x oversampling that has a non-obvious side-effect in addition to its main purpose (getting rid of the aliasing caused by the highly nonlinear distortion). Since the filters in this plug-in are digitized using the bilinear transform they exhibit a degrading matching with the analog prototypes with the frequencies approaching the Nyquist limit. Oversampling effectively shifts this frequency out of the sonic range thus greatly improving the filters’ performance at the sampling rates below or equal to 48000Hz.
SoftAmp GT also allows you to disable the embedded speaker simulation, so you can use your favourite speaker simulator plug-in with good impulses.
The last feature is the mono/stereo switch. It allows you to cut the CPU consumption in half when you don’t need both channels.
The GUI includes transfer function scopes for the three main clipping stages (there are more, but they are mostly operating in the linear range). There’s also a bode plot for pre- and post-filters, including the speaker simulation frequency response.
There are a number of presets that provide you a good starting point to experiment with this plug-in.
