A-PEX AM-10 Mixer Preamp Profiles for NAM
Raw vintage color with gritty harmonics and a forward, energetic midrange.
$24.99
Vintage tone. Raw character. Forward energy.
The AM-10 is not about clean transparency — it’s about adding attitude to your signal.
With its classic mixer circuit design, it introduces harmonic richness, subtle saturation, and a slightly gritty edge that brings sources forward in a mix.
Audio Demo
Compare the original hardware signal and the NAM profile across a range of sources — bass, guitar, synth, and more.
Each example demonstrates how closely the profile captures the tone, dynamics, and harmonic response of the hardware.
The NAM and hardware samples are gain-matched to allow for a more accurate evaluation of the capture’s fidelity.
For additional context, a dry (unprocessed) version is also included.

Gain Staging Advice
Our captures are pre-calibrated at -18 dBFS input level.
For best results, we recommend feeding the plugin with an input signal close to -18 dBFS.
Due to gain reduction during the profiling process, the output level of a loaded profile may be slightly lower than the original input signal.
Please adjust the Output control to match your source level or to reach your preferred listening volume.

Derek –
I’m tired of ‘transparent’ preamps. Sometimes you just need a signal to bite through the speakers, and the AM-10 does exactly that. I ran a dull-sounding snare and a thin male vocal through this profile, and it instantly added that gritty, forward energy that makes a track feel alive. Total game changer for my workflow.
