Just launched Amplitron on Product Hunt today — a free, open-source guitar amp simulator I built in C++17. Implements Schroeder reverb, biquad EQ, and tanh waveshaping from scratch. ~1.3ms latency. Linux/Mac/Windows. Check it out!

Congrats on the PH launch! I saw your earlier post about building this and it's cool to see it getting traction. Quick question - are you planning to add any kind of preset sharing between users? One thing I always wished amp sims had was an easy way to share signal chain configs, like 'here's my blues tone' as a one-click import. Also curious if the reverb implementation from your other post made it into this build or if that's still separate.
