Peavey announces new lower price on ReValver MKIII.V modeling software 09-Feb-12
Peavey tells us that musical-instrument retailers across North America voted their ReValver MKIII.V professional amplifier modeling software the Best New Software/Multimedia of 2011 in the annual Music & Sound Awards, presented by the Music & Sound Retailer. Peavey describe ReValver as a revolutionary amplifier modeling software that captures the true characteristics of vacuum tubes while allowing users unprecedented control over their tonality, configuration, tube types, and gain structures.
Hartley Peavey, founder and CEO of Peavey Electronics Corporation, told us, "ReValver amplifier modeling software is unique because it models the actual amp components, which unlocks entirely new levels of tone control. Where other modeling software only lets users adjust the tone controls on their virtual amps, with ReValver you can also change internal design features like tubes, power amp rectifiers, output transformers and tone stacks, as well as individual component values, which is probably a decade ahead of our nearest competition."
ReValver MK III.V features 20 amp models--including the Peavey 6505, 6505+, 3120, Classic, and ValveKing, as well as other popular amp models--plus 12 preamps, nine power amps, 778 speaker simulations, 32 effects and a VST Host Module for importing third-party software plug-ins. Peavey has announced that this software is now available for just $199.99 (U.S. MSRP).
Peavey say that unlocking ReValver's groundbreaking, deep-editing customization toolset is easy. By right-clicking on an amp model, users can "go inside" and adjust the amp's tones and components on the Tweak Module GUI. This allows users to modifynearly every imaginable tube and component parameters on all amplifier models. Users can also modify tube types, power amps, rectifiers, output transformers and tone stacks.
Readers of Guitar Player magazine voted ReValver MKIII amplifier-modeling software as the Best Home Studio Gear of 2009 in its annual Readers' Choice Awards. The software also won a Premier Gear Award from Premier Guitar magazine and Platinum and Value Awards from Future Music magazine.

I bet you're plugging straight into the sound card eh? Latency issues. Get a USB interface, such as the Line 6 UX2 or something like that... actually helps quite well.
hey can u please help me ? i have connected my guitar to the pc , opened the revalver program , and when i strike the strings , it takes some time untill i get the sound . seems i have some delay in it and dunno what should i do : (
I can. Real amps are still more organic, amp sims like these are just for recording. The scariest amp sim out there though is the AXE Fx. so sparkly....
can you get it as a stand alone or does it have to be as a plug-in? also if a plug in only, what softwares what it work with? only high end ones ex. logic, cubase, pro tools, or about any like audacity ect...?
Hi Cpttinituz, Thanks for asking, I'll try to explain a bit. Everything was recorded and mixed in Cubase SX. For this particular session, I just had two tracks. One for the backing tracks and another one for the ReValver takes. I didn't add any effects or plugins or anything. All you hear is what was recorded. No tricks here. For the "rhythm" excerpts though, I doubled and panned the guitars using ReValver because that's usually how guitars are recorded in the studio.
Hi Pascal, although i think the MKIII.V sounds great, i really would like to know how mixed this demo here.
Did you use any EQ's? How did you get the stereo spread (for instance, at sound sample #2), did you use something like vfxHaas? Did you use compressors, etc.
I mean if you show those demos to the public, it would be fair to tell the people what setup is used to compare this product with others. Besides that, i guess i could really learn a lot from you setup. Thanks.
a video with all types of tones is a bad idea. do a video for metal, and a vid for all the bluesy tones.
