The Savage 120 Amplifier plugin captures the essence of ENGL's iconic metal amplifier renowned for delivering powerful and aggressive tones. Celebrated by influential metal guitarists like Gary Holt of Exodus and bands such as Dimmu Borgir, Sodom, and Primal Fear, this amplifier has earned a reputation for its commanding presence in heavy music. The plugin offers musicians the ability to access this legendary sound within their digital audio workstations, ensuring authentic metal tone production.

Developed by Brainworx exclusively for UAD hardware and Apollo interfaces, the Savage 120 plugin is an accurate emulation of the original tube amplifier. It features four distinct channels including Clean, Crunch 1, Crunch 2, and Lead, each with its own three-band EQ and gain controls. Users can shape their sound with various tone-shaping options like Rough/Smooth modes, sensitivity and bright switches, lead boost, contour, and hi-balance controls, providing extensive sonic flexibility for different metal styles.

The plugin also includes 100 advanced impulse responses to cover a wide range of tones from high-gain aggression to smooth, creamy cleans. A comprehensive effects rack enhances the experience with tools like lo-fi delay, noise gate, and adjustable filters, while features such as physical input impedance and Unison technology allow precise control over gain staging. This combination of authentic amp modeling and versatile features makes the Savage 120 plugin a powerful tool for metal guitarists seeking to craft their signature sound.
