bx_rockrack V3 Player is a free guitar amplifier emulation plugin from Brainworx, distributed via Plugin Alliance. It provides access to eight high-fidelity amp models including emulations of Marshall JCM 800, ENGL 530, and Mesa Boogie Rect-O-Verb, along with 26 factory presets and a set of cabinet impulse responses. The Player edition includes all amp models but locks parameter controls, requiring the paid full version for complete editing capability. It is available in VST, VST3, AU and AAX formats across macOS and Windows. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionA native Apple Silicon build of bx_rockrack V3 Player is available and has been confirmed running on community Macs. To get the native AU plugin, visit the Plugin Alliance download page at plugin-alliance.com and sign in to your account (or create a free account if you do not yet have one). Download the macOS installer from the bx_rockrack V3 Player product page — Plugin Alliance automatically serves the current build, which includes native Apple Silicon support as of version 3.8 (released March 2022). Uninstall your old Intel version (remove the .component file from /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/ or use your DAW's plugin manager to disable it), then run the installer. After installation, restart your DAW and rescan for plugins. Your existing AU preset banks will carry over without any manual migration. The native version will deliver noticeably lower CPU usage and longer battery life compared to running under Rosetta.
