Blue Cat AcouFiend is a unique virtual feedback simulator, designed for electric guitarists. Perfect for adding searing feedback out of your lead solo, AcouFiend enables you to add feedback to your playing at any volume level, even when plugged in directly using amplifier simulators. Where this would not be traditionally possible without standing in front of a stack of overdriven amplifiers, AcouFiend makes it easy. Entirely flexible and customisable, AcouFiend lets you choose the sensitivity of the triggering along with adjusting the fade in and out times and even the generated harmonic of your feedback. Creating harmonised feedback with your playing is as simple as turning one dial!
Controllable via MIDI, AcouFiend lets you use external hardware controllers to modulate any parameter. Ideal for guitarists using MIDI foot controllers to blend the level of your AcouFiend feedback in and out for certain sections of your performance seamlessly. Not just suitable for electric guitar, AcouFiend has been designed to work with several different instruments from keys, synths and even vocals.
Blue Cat Axiom is a unique approach to guitar multi-effects modelling, offering a plethora of built-in amps and effects with third-party plug-in hosting capabilities. The next generation of guitar multi-effects modelling, Axiom is an entire world of signal chain possibilities within one plug-in. Employing over 70 high-quality amplifier and effects models with deep customisation parameters for each model, you can create any tone you need for any style or genre from classic funk clean to modern high-gain metal. An infinite number of possibilities awaits you, with two parallel signal paths which can be mixed and blended between, each path contains 16 pre and 16 post-effects to add some extra spice to your tone. Master input and output sections are onboard to allow you to create global changes to both parallel paths where adding limiters or dynamics processors will help to achieve a smooth and professional sound.
Employing deep customisation throughout, you can even create your own amplifier and effects models from scratch with complete control over the tone should you not be able to find the right sound for your project. Not limited to what's inside the plug-in, Axiom lets you load third-party plug-ins within the FX slots to expand Axiom's capabilities with limitless potential. Whether you want to load your favourite mixing EQ plug-in to sculpt and shape your tone or whether you want to load in an entirely separate guitar amplifier suite and use the processing within Axiom to create a unique and customised tone is entirely up to you. And because playing alone is not so much fun, we have added a tools section with 3 additional slots to load virtual instruments: add a metronome, a drum machine, a sequencer or your keyboardist's favourite synthesizer there to get it mixed with your guitar.
The Blue Cat Destructor is a flexible and powerful amplifier and distortion modelling plug-in. Capable of simulating everything from classic, hardware analog distortion pedals and outboard gear to pristine and clean digital distortion, Destructor is the perfect solution for electric guitar and bass players and mixing engineers looking for a suite of different tones for a variety of different applications.

Internal processing ensures that Hot Tuna does not interfere with other plug-ins within your signal chain and can be bypassed, muted or dimmed when not in use. Perfect for studio musicians, Hot Tuna is a streamlined and simple plug-in that keeps you in tune without needing to use external hardware or pedals, removing clutter from your setup.

A unique topology design ensures that when used on its own as a multi-effect, Blue Cat Late Replies offers a huge range of creativity. Featuring two delay lines, each with eight tapped sequences lets you craft interesting and highly-musical, rhythmic delays to add depth and dimension to any sound. Boasting 30 built-in effects to further manipulate your delay lines, you can inject everything from compression, waveshaping, bit crushing or use the seven-band EQ to reshape your delay to fit any mix or genre.
