RIFFAMP

Your guitar amp,
in the browser.

Plug in and play through neural amp captures, cab IRs, and a full pedalboard — controlled from a web page, powered by a tiny native engine that delivers real sub-10 ms latency.

Browser UI, native engine

The browser is a great place for an interface and a terrible place for real-time audio. So RiffAmp splits the two: the controls live on a web page; a small native helper owns the audio path and talks to it over a local connection.

01

Install the helper

A ~2 MB native app. It runs quietly in your tray and owns the low-latency audio path to your interface.

02

Open the UI

The helper serves its own page locally — knobs, pedalboard, tuner, and practice tools, all in your browser.

03

Play

Guitar in, amp out, at the latency a native driver gives you — not what a browser sandbox allows.

Everything for a practice rig

Neural amp + cab

Load NAM captures and cabinet impulse responses. Bring your own or grab thousands from the community.

Pedalboard

Compressor, drive, chorus, delay, reverb — placeable before or after the amp, reorderable.

Tuner

Fast, accurate pitch detection on your clean input — works even while the amp path is muted.

Metronome

Sample-accurate click on the same low-latency path, with tap tempo and accents.

Drum machine

A step-sequencer groove box that shares the metronome tempo. Save and switch grooves.

Picking trainer

Real-time onset analysis tells you if you're actually playing 16ths — or slipping into triplets — at speed.
