Pure Path
A Real alternative to IR's
Winner of a NAMM 2026 "Best in Show" Award, PurePath isn't just another load box or IR loader.
It's a fully analog, amplifier-driven speaker simulator with a mechanical reactive load— designed to deliver real amp feel without DSP, menus, or power cables.
For players who want the most realistic direct sound possible, PurePath is a breakthrough.
Designed by amp guru Bruce Egnater, Purepath features an all-new reactive load that physically simulates the movement and dynamic behaviour of a real guitar speaker. Unlike conventional resistive or digitally modelled loads, Purepath allows the amp to respond naturally, preserving that all-important feel, touch sensitivity, and output-stage interaction.
The integrated analogue cabinet DI is voiced to deliver a big, forward, punchy guitar sound that sits naturally in a mix. Connected to an audio interface, PA system or full-range monitors, it delivers a more cabinet-like response than traditional IR or DSP based solutions, with immediate attack and realistic dynamics.
Purepath has no IRs, menus, or software - it doesn’t even need a power supply.
It’s the zero-fuss solution for players who want to go direct, without losing natural, authentic amp feel.
Overview:
• Mechanical Reactive Load that emulates real speaker movement.
• Preserves amp dynamics, feel, and output stage interaction.

• NAMM Best in Show 2026
