For decades, the guitarist’s quest for the perfect tone has been a journey of compromise. You find an amp simulator with a great feel, but you can’t use your favorite third-party stompbox plugins. You build a dream pedalboard in your DAW, but the workflow is clunky and disconnected from your amp. What if you could finally break free from those limitations?
What if your amp simulator wasn’t a closed box, but an open, limitless universe for your creativity?
Meet Blue Cat’s Axiom V2, the next-generation multi-effects and amp simulation platform. Axiom is far more than just another amp modeler; it’s a complete, customizable sonic environment for your guitar or bass. Built on the powerhouse engine of our acclaimed Destructor plugin, Axiom offers an infinite number of exceptional tones and, for the first time, gives you the freedom to build the rig of your dreams using virtually any plugin you own.
Your Entire Plugin Folder is Now Your Pedalboard
This is the feature that changes everything. Axiom’s open architecture allows you to load any of your favorite third-party VST, VST3, or Audio Unit plugins at any point in the signal chain.
- Place your go-to boutique compressor plugin before the amp.
- Insert a unique granular delay from another developer into the post-effects section.
- Load your entire collection of IRs (Impulse Responses) into the built-in loader.
- Stack multiple distortion VSTs to create a sound no single pedal could achieve.
With Axiom, your creative potential is no longer limited by one developer’s ecosystem. Your signal chain is bound only by your imagination.
The Heart of Your Tone: Dual Amp Channels & World-Class Modeling
At its core, Axiom delivers an authentic playing feel and unparalleled tonal control, thanks to its versatile, Destructor-powered engine.
- Two Fully Independent Amp Channels: Run two complete amp simulation channels in parallel, each with its own pre and post-effects. Blend a clean, sparkling amp with a high-gain monster for massive, layered tones, or pan them for a huge stereo image. The possibilities are endless.
- Deep Amp Customization: Don’t just pick a preset. Dive into the amp editor and tweak everything from the preamp and power amp saturation to the tone stack and cabinet simulation. This is not a black box—you have full control over every component that shapes your sound.
- Hundreds of Presets to Start: If you’d rather just plug in and play, Axiom comes loaded with hundreds of professionally designed presets for electric guitar, acoustic guitar, and bass, covering every genre imaginable.
A World-Class Effects Suite, Built-In
Beyond its open architecture, Axiom comes armed with a massive arsenal of over 100 high-quality effects. Even more, it includes integrated versions of four acclaimed Blue Cat Audio plugins, giving you a complete studio’s worth of creative tools:
- Late Replies: Go beyond simple delay and reverb. Create sprawling, rhythmic echoes, deep ambient washes, and intricate sequenced effects.
- Destructor: Want to design your own signature distortion or fuzz pedal? Use the built-in Destructor to build it from the ground up.
- Re-Guitar: Magically transform the pickups of your guitar on the fly. Make a single-coil sound like a humbucker, or dial in the perfect piezo tone for your acoustic guitar.
- Miaow Wah: From classic crybaby sounds to funky auto-wah and modern, LFO-driven filter sweeps, it’s all here.
New in Version 2.2: Constantly Evolving for the Modern Musician
Axiom is a living platform, and the latest update brings powerful new features for performance, production, and workflow:
- Advanced Wah Modulation: The built-in Miaow Wah now includes a new LFO for creating rhythmic, host-synced filter effects.
- Perfect Studio & Live Sync: With new MIDI Clock and MIDI Timecode (MTC) send and receive, you can perfectly synchronize Axiom’s looper, sequencer, and transport with external hardware, drum machines, and other software.
- Streamlined Pedalboard: Select exactly which plugins appear in the EZ view to keep your interface clean and focused on the effects you need most.
- Advanced MIDI Routing: A new MIDI loopback port allows for complex routing scenarios, sending MIDI from hosted plugins back to Axiom’s input.
From Studio to Stage: Your All-In-One Solution
Axiom seamlessly transitions from a recording plugin to a powerful standalone application for live performance or practice.
- Standalone Performance: Load Axiom on your laptop, connect your audio interface, and take your exact studio tone to the stage.
- Integrated Tools: Play along with a built-in audio player for backing tracks, keep time with a metronome or virtual drum machine, and capture ideas instantly with a MIDI-controllable looper.
- Zero Latency: Experience an immediate, responsive playing feel that rivals the best hardware.
