Welcome to the World’s Most Inspiring Guitar Studio

Paradise Guitar Studio is our first end-to-end virtual studio for guitar. With jaw-droppingly authentic amp emulations, classic mic and speaker pairings, and a rack full of studio and stompbox effects, you’ll get the best recorded tones of your life in seconds.

Plug in to Award-Winning UAD Amp Emulations

With our best amp emulations — including the acclaimed UAD Dream ’65, Enigmatic ’82, and more — Paradise is like being in a room full of iconic gear. Enjoy rich vintage tones, with all the touch-sensitivity and tube “sag” that pro guitarists pine for. Whether you need jangly cleans, natural overdrive, or rare boutique sounds, you can dial in whatever your track calls for.

Enjoy Dozens of Cabinet and Mic Combinations

Elevate any of the amps in Paradise with a selection of cabinets and mics, perfectly matched to make your recordings sound as if they were captured by a pro engineer in a world-class studio. Explore 35 different combinations, curated by our own guitar connoisseurs and audio scientists, for nearly limitless tone shaping.

Explore Over 25 Pro Studio Effects and Stompboxes

We modeled your favorite stompboxes and studio effects, so you can craft an entire signal chain in a single plug-in. From iconic overdrive pedals and choruses, to classic 1176 compression, plate and spring reverbs, tape delays, and more — it all works together so you can stop digging for cables and stay in your zone.

Find Amazing Tones Fast

No more patch cables or endless tone chasing. When you pull up Paradise in your DAW, you’ll find deep control when you need it, or a simple drag-and-drop workflow that allows you to spend more time creating and less time menu diving. And with flexible routing — including pre or post effects — you’ll find inspiring tones instantly.

This is a stunning array of guitar tones that are instantly usable. The worst part about Paradise Guitar Studio is I'm not going to get much sleep now!

Paradise Guitar Studio is like having access to a dream studio but without the fuss of moving big heavy amps around, or messing with mics and cables.

Paradise Guitar Studio is an entire rig in the box. I was able to dial in a sound right away with little effort.

    Great but no preset change via MIDI

    PGS sounds great but it can't be used as a live guitar rig as there is no way to change presets via MIDI unfortunately

    Almost Perfect

    So easy to put one of these in each guitar track and start creating. Sounds great, faithful to the original gear in sound and control interaction. However, there are some gaps that can hopefully be filled in future updates…

    Biggest one being a lack of modern or high gain amps. Would love to see a JCM800, Rockerverb or 5150.

    The Right Stuff

    UA nailed it with this plugin suite. The problem with most amp sim plugins is that they have these strange and imagined effects racks which aren’t intuitive for guitar players who are used to real amps with real effects pedals. The paradise guitar studio smashes the competition by giving you exceptional sims of real classic amps that we know and love as well as sims of real classic pedals so you can actually build out your tone like you would on the physical amps and pedals that you are used to. This makes getting the tone you are looking for completely intuitive for guitar players and sound engineers. Fantastic!
