NoAMP is a guitar plugin for Windows that turns Neural Amp Modeler captures into a full live looping pedalboard in a single window.
NoAMP loads .nam amp captures and cab IRs into a full pedalboard: tuner, compressor, chorus, phaser, tempo-synced delay, spring reverb and a wah and looper that will actually work with your hardware. You bring the captures and NoAMP makes the magic happen. Windows VST3 + standalone, $20 ($5 launch).
NoAMP is a modern pedalboard in one window but it’s missing one thing. That’s where you come in. You can load up any Neural Amp Modeler capture, so any amp anyone has ever captured can be your amp with a quick download. Then for maximum customization, you can load cab IRs and even drive captures to color everything. Around that sits a real pedalboard, tuner, compressor, an expressive wah, chorus, phaser, a tempo-synced delay, a spring reverb with an infinite freeze, and a looper built to work like the pedal on your floor off your own MIDI hardware. No chains of gateway plugins, no login, no cloud. The license is a plain offline file and every future update is free. It runs as a VST3 and as a standalone app on Windows. Made by one person who wanted the functionality, but not the aesthetic, of his real-life pedalboard.
Boilerplate is in the “About Ill Sea” box near the bottom.
- Loads your NAM captures for the amp, plus cab IRs and drive/fuzz captures in a Color slot in front of each amp.
- A full pedalboard around it: tuner, compressor, wah (no heel/toe click), chorus, phaser, tempo delay, spring reverb, looper.
- A guitar-style looper that runs off real MIDI footswitches, not a mouse.
- Two amp slots with folder-stepping arrows to audition a whole pack of captures hands-free.
- Peak-safe auto-leveling so captures land at consistent loudness (with a Raw switch for purists).
- Every pedal also ships as its own VST3 for DAW chains.
- Offline license, free updates forever, VST3 + standalone, Windows 64-bit.

Every guitar in these demos will be DI’d straight into NoAMP through a NAM capture, no amp in the room, no outboard. Landing soon.
A short screen-capture walkthrough with clean guitar. This box is the exact 16:9 spot the video will fill.
Ill Sea LLC makes the Illthy line of guitar plugins for people who like computers as much as they like guitars: lime and purple, Winamp-flavored, computer software on purpose. It is a one-person shop in Seattle. NoAMP is its flagship NAM loader; a full amps-included board, Illthy Pig, is on the way.
