Audio-Assault Grind Machine II v1.2 / v1.3 WiN MacOSX

Grind Machine II is the reincarnation of our legendary metal tone monster “Grind Machine”! Reconstructed from the ground up, Grind Machine II delivers a streamlined workflow and improved realism!

Our proprietary IMPACT engine emulates the microdynamic movements of real speakers, adding a sense of realism not commonly found in amp modelers. The included assortment of brutal amps can be paired with the included cabinet collection, allowing you to hone your perfect tone quickly!

Layout
Grind Machine II’s streamlined GUI places all controls at your fingertips in one screen. This keeps you focused on dialing in the right tone, and helps you avoid getting lost in a sea of options. The intuitive layout mimics the familiar workflow of most guitar amps, making Grind Machine II easy to use right out of the box.

Input Section
The input section features a noise gate and preamp bypass section.

The included Gate has a default threshold of -150dbfs, but can reach as high as 0dbfs to suit all your creative gating needs.
The PRE switch bypasses the preamp section, allowing use of Grind Machine II’s Cab section. This allows you to use Grind Machine as an IR loader, allowing you to take advantage of our proprietary Impact Engine with any amp sim you wish to use!
The TIGHT switch turns on a booster circuit, tightening the low end and smoothing the high gain.

Preamps
Grind Machine II provides a wide variety of high gain amp flavors!

90210 emulates the legendary american high gain of choice.
Acutronix is an original designed clean preamp tone which compresses naturally at higher gain settings while still retaining a clean tone.
Ak-45 is an original design high gain preamp tone that can drive you down the Rocky Mountain Way straight to the Highway To Hell!
Bassmaster is based on a legendary bass amp adopted by guitarists in the 60’s. This same amp inspired Jim Marshall’s JTM45 amp.
