What is Amp Farm?
Amp Farm is an amp modeler plug-in. It offers more than a dozen different amp models, dozens of diverse cabinet models, and selectable mic models to produce a wide variety of guitar tones. Amp Farm was introduced in the year 1998 as a Pro Tools TDM plug-in and became extremely popular on a multitude of award-winning records and soundtracks. Due to popular demand, we made Amp Farm available as a 64-bit Native plug-in in AAX, AU, and VST plug-in formats.
What changed in Amp Farm between TDM and Native AAX versions? Are there any new amp models?
Our design goal was to provide 100% session compatibility and ensure that older projects open smoothly in Pro Tools 11 and higher. For this reason, we kept the Amp Farm AAX feature set unchanged. However, the AAX version now supports sampling rates up to 192 kHz, which was not possible with the older TDM version.
What DAWs does Amp Farm 4.0 work with?
Amp Farm 4.0 works with a wide variety of 64-bit DAWs that support AAX, AU, or VST plug-in formats.

What are your plans for an AAX DSP version of Amp Farm?
We plan to release the plug-in on the AAX Native platform initially and evaluate demand for AAX DSP subsequently.
Will Amp Farm AAX work with 32-bit DAW applications, such as Pro Tools 10?
Amp Farm AAX is a 64bit plug-in and thus only works with DAWs that support the 64-bit format, for example Pro Tools 11 or higher.
When will Amp Farm be available and how much does it cost?
Amp Farm is available now in the Line 6 online store. It costs $199 for the full retail version.
I own Amp Farm TDM version 3. Is there an upgrade path to the AAX version?
Yes. Registered Amp Farm TDM 3.x customers can upgrade to version 4.0 for $49. Please note that the upgrade will replace (void) the version 3 license.
I found a really old and dusty Amp Farm 1.0 installer floppy disk. Can I upgrade that to Amp Farm 4.0?
Please contact Line 6 customer support and we will assess your request.
