Presenting the all new DSM & Humboldt Simplifier MK-II, a fully analog Zero Watt Amplifier and Cabinet Simulator.
Carrying forward from the incredible success of the original Simplifier, the new Simplifier MK-II takes the analog amp simulation to a new stage of realism. Many more options, while keeping the instant touch and dynamics that only an all analog device can manage. All, in the same ultra compact footprint...
The Simplifier MKII is an all analog, zero-watt guitar amplifier with stereo reverb, fully packed
- Preamp with 3 amp types (MS Brit, USA, and AC Brit).
- Stereo FX loop Return.
- Stereo Reverb.
- Power amp simulation with Power amp Type, Power amp Drive, presence and resonance.
- Cabinet simulation with cab type and Speaker color for each channel.
- Two Balanced DI outs with ground lift.
- Powerful headphone amplifier with volume control and aux input.
The Simplifier MK-II features a redesigned layout for an easy understanding and connectivity, making it the cornerstone of your pedalboard rig. The MK-II also features a brand new heavy- duty all aluminium enclosure, with all metal switches for maximum endurance.
What's new in the MK-II?
Completely redesigned preamps with wider gain range and extremely dynamic behavior combined with the Power Amp drive control, and a new Speaker type knob.
Additionally, according to feedback from users of the original, one of the most desired features on the original Simplifier was a built in reverb, or at least a room control. The new Simplifier MK-II adds a side- chained digital PLATE reverb.
Preamp Section
The Simplifier MKII features a state of the art, low noise, and ultra versatile preamp that reproduces the character of 3 of the most iconic classic amplifiers.
Gain Knob
Sets the gain/overdrive of the preamp. It ranges from very clean (below noon), up to mid/high gain at full throttle.
Combine this gain with the power amp gain to achieve the desired level of compression and drive.
PreAmp Type
Selects the following Amp Types:
- AC BRIT: Classic AC30 top boost sparkly and three-dimensional sound, bridging the normal and bright channel. A true British heritage since the 60's
-
USA: Classic Bassman tones. Sweet and dynamic with a balanced response. By far the most used amp on studio recordings
- MS BRIT: Classic clean-to-crunch vintage plexi style amp with bridged hi/lo inputs. The sound that defined rock music.
Tone Stack
A key part of a tube amp sound and response is the tone stack behavior. The tone stack on the Simplifier is a genuine configurable three band classic amplifier topology, keeping the same feel, response and interaction of the original amp.
NOTE: On the AC BRIT type preamp, the MID control is disabled (as the original amp does not have a mid control)
Power Amp Section
The Power amp section models the behavior of a true push-pull all tube amp, including the compression, clipping, bias drift and variable frequency response that makes Tube power amps so special. The Power amp type selector now changes the whole topology of each power amp, changing the tube type, bias and feedback characteristics of each model.
Power Drive Knob
The power amp drive allows you to dial the perfect amount of power amp compression for that sweet-spot that only a tube amp can achieve. A Clip indicator will visually show when the virtual power tubes start clipping, helping you find the perfect balance between pre and power amp gain.
WEIGHT: 360 grs (0,8 lb)
Dimensions: 120 x 70 x 45 mm (4,7 x 2,7 x 1,8 inches)
Power supply requirements:
Voltage: 9 to 12V DC regulated
Connector: 2.1mm DC jack, Center negative
Current consumption: 150mA
Recommended supply current: 200mA and up
Outputs
Right and Left Balanced DI outputs: Low Impedance (150 Ohms) XLR outputs for left and right signals, with Ground Lift. These
outputs carry the final output with cabsim always ON. NOTE: The DI outs can withstand phantom power voltage without damage, but it will affect the quality of the sound, mainly causing low-end distortion and/or lack of bass frequencies. Make sure to have Phantom Power Off before using the unit.
Right ¼” Unbalanced out: Unbalanced TS output for right signal. You can Bypass the cabinet simulation for the Right side with the “Cabsim Bypass” switch. If Cabsim is Bypassed, the signal will include Preamp + FX loop + Reverb stages.
Left ¼” Unbalanced: Unbalanced TS output for Left signal. You can Bypass the whole device with the “Through” switch. If “Through” is selected, the signal will be taken from the input and buffered.
Input Impedance:
Input: 1Meg Ohm
L & R return: 1Meg Ohm
Output impedance:
Send: 1K Ohm
Unbalanced Outputs: 4.7K Ohms
Balanced Outputs: 100 Ohms
Headphone amp specs:
Power: 135mW into 32 Ohms.
* Use with 16, 32, 64 and 96 Ohm Headphones.
* Loss of power can occur with higher impedance headphones.

Let customers speak for us
Another company I was going to buy from took 3 months to get the item in stock when they said 2 weeks. AME had them listed as soon as they got the shipment.
I bought this combination to go with a Fractal FM9 and couldn’t be happier. This setup actually replaced a hand wired boutique amp! And what’s best is if I don’t use the FM9 I still have an awesome and light tube like Ami that takes pedals well. The people at AME audio ordered this for me and couldn’t have been more helpful. One very happy customer here!
Amazing pedal, have wanted one for years. Was worth the wait to get it at such a good price.
The service from Matt, was friendly and informative, received the amp in North Qld saved the Gig. Thanks again Matt.
Awesome pedal. Awesome service, fast overnight delivery. What else do you want?!
Obviously it seems to have been universally well reviewed, and it IS good. To me it has a unique timbre - a fuzz like quality but somehow sweeter. It’s versatile and I think you could find a good use for it in several genres and a cut through in any mix.
The BK Butler is arguably one of the best overdrives of all time, but it's huge, mains powered, noisy and desperately needs True Bypass.
The Venus is a BK Butler which is normal sized, runs off 9V (albeit with a noteworthy draw), true bypass and a couple of fun tweaks to make it even better.
Probably the ugliest pedal Ive ever seen, but aside from that, it's a no-brainer.
Thick fuzz fused to a screamer overdrive. I don’t really like tube screamers, but really like this pedal. A very playable fuzz/overdrive for anyone who wants a grittier tone. Thanks guys for a great pedal!!
What a great sounding pedal. Just used it in my pedal chain.
It is smooth responsive and breaks up with definition. Highly recommend.
Fantastic pedal sounds like Angus young. Brilliant .
Fast deliver pleasure to deal with
It's like my old Eden WT800 and Ampeg SVT heads got together, had a bastard love-child that won the genetic lottery, then blasted that child with some sort of mad scientist shrink ray! So small it fits in my accessories bag - I don't even need to get a separate bag/rack for it - and my ageing joints love that it's barely 2 kg. The controls are so simple and intuitive, yet there is a surprising range of usable tones in this this. Sounds great with my pedal board and it works awesome with my current band. I don't regret going with the Quilter Bass Block at all!
First Klon style pedal I’ve ever owned.. does the job beautifully and saved myself about five thousand dollars.!! Delivered prompt and efficiently within a few days…. No complaints here.
Bought the Quilter Superblock US as an easy to carry alternative to the 50w valve head I usually take to gigs and jams. Matched with a 1x12 cabinet it sounds great, big sound for such a small package. Very happy with this amp.
