The Laboga Mr Hector Suite from Aurora DSP rebuilds Laboga's Mr Hector amplifier in software and pairs it with its smaller sibling, The Beast. Mr Hector is the 100-watt high-gain head, while The Beast is a sharper 30-watt amp, and both sit inside a complete rig with pedals, cabinets and studio tools. It is aimed at guitarists who play heavy styles but still want clean and crunch tones from the same setup.

Key Features

• Four-pedal front end with overdrive, OctaFuzz, boost and six-band input EQ

FAQs

What is the difference between the two amps?

Mr Hector is the bigger, two-channel high-gain amp. The Beast is a smaller 30-watt design with three channels, voiced a little sharper and more compact.

Can I play through it without a DAW?

Yes, a standalone version is supplied where available, so you can practise and build tones outside a recording session.
