Chris Benson designed the Monarch while working as an amp technician in Portland, Oregon. Word spread, the wait list grew, and it became the amp players spent years trying to get their hands on.
The Mixwave Benson Monarch captures that amp in full, with American and British voicing modes, the Monarch cabinet, and a complete suite of Benson pedals: Germanium Boost, Germanium Fuzz, Preamp, and Tall Bird Reverb — plus two brand new additions, the Florist Chorus and Delay.
One amp. Endless tone. Try it free for 14 days.

Designed but never built.

The VT-15 takes the VT5 and VT7 even further for a more enhanced experience — a more utilitarian design with added mid range control in a channel strip format.
Free for owners of both. Available now.

For decades, Electro-Harmonix pedals have defined the sound across all genres. From the fuzz that powered generations of players to the chorus, flanger, and delay that became sonic signatures, these are the pedals behind the records you know by heart.

The Mixwave × Electro-Harmonix Pedal Suite captures each one with obsessive accuracy, preserving every nuance of the original hardware in a complete plugin bundle built for modern production.

The bundle includes the Big Muff Pi Suite, Classic, Ram’s Head, and Russian, alongside the Small Clone Chorus, Electric Mistress Flanger, and Deluxe Memory Man Analog Delay.

Six pedals. Fifty years of sound. Zero compromise.

When the @mixwave x @dwfearn_hazelriggindustries VT-15 came out, I knew this was the box that would give me that vibe/color, pleasurable EQ curve control and the lush dynamic control I needed. It makes the perfect combination for all of my buses. Essentially, what I have now is an entire VT-15 console where all tracks are running through and being tamed in the final stages to bring about more life and enhancement.

There’s absolutely no going back now.

The VT-15 has its own unique tonal character that makes your digital tracks scream “hardware analog sound.” And for people mixing in the box, this is absolutely huge.

The introductory sale is still live on the site AND owners of VT-5 and VT-7 get the VT-15 FREE !

Grab the trial to witness the greatness yourself and push your tracks into the warm, lush analog sound they deserve.

In this demonstration, I show you how I bring about my clients mix to life. Artist @justjoshalldayy - song (unreleased ) @avengedsevenfold - Unwind the Chainsaw.

Kent Crawley pairs the Electric Mistress with the Benson Monarch. Two classics, one signal chain.

The @ehx BIG MUFF is the perfect type of distortion to add a whole new layer of complexity to your guitar tone.

MixWave Benson Monarch Collection

I’ve played through a lot of amp plugins over the years, but this one immediately felt different.
The new Benson collection doesn’t just “sound good.” It reacts like a real amp.
The pick attack, the compression, the harmonic bloom when you lean into notes… it has that addictive feel where you stop thinking about plugins and just keep playing.
Every sound you hear in this track was done entirely with the Benson collection.
No real amps. No extra amp sims. Just the Benson Monarch Collection.

Breakup tones feel incredibly alive, and when pushed, the sustain and harmonics have that rich, responsive Benson character that makes every phrase feel bigger and more expressive.
The Delay and modulation effects are also insanely musical subtle, warm, and inspiring in a way that naturally changes how you play.
Honestly one of the few plugin releases lately that made me forget I was playing digital.
Huge respect to the team for this one.
