Angel Artista is the TH-U expansion library, created by Choptones, seeking to recreate the sound of an authentic Engl E651 Artist Edition* all-tube head. The original design was based on the E650 Ritchie Blackmore amps, modded for Doug Aldrich back in 2005. It was supposed to feature a few modifications, such as EL34 tubes in the power amp stage; increased dynamics and unmatched tone was the mission. Choptones capture includes 193 rigs created with the following gear:
