Archetype: Petrucci by Neural DSP is a comprehensive guitar amp and effects suite crafted to capture the versatility and precision of John Petrucci’s signature sound. Designed with modern recording and performance in mind, it delivers crystal-clear cleans, tight, articulate rhythm tones, and fluid high-gain leads in a streamlined interface that’s easy to navigate.

Precision tools like a noise gate and flexible EQ help you fine-tune your signal for mix-ready results.
