Thank you all so much for the kind words and of course checking out the video, or the plugin! You’re all legends. It was such a great experience. I’m glad I brought my camera along for the journey! ❤❤❤

I know people feel patriotic towards their countries team in the world cup. But I feel the same when guys like you fly the guitar flag for us in England and the rest of GB. We are a world family but i am proud of you my boy. Keep it up. You ain't no imposter.

i think so many people were expecting it to be a super hi-gain plugin but I'm glad you spent the time on the clean amp. sounds amazing and I love the synth too. proper writing tools (edit): brownie points for the Jamiroquai lick

Thumbs up right from the start if only for Opeth's Closure. Great video!

I love when Bea does these behind the scenes type videos. Bea has a charm that’s undeniable. Great post!

Before you even get into the effects on this plugin, the amps sounds amazing. Neural is in a league of their own. Bought a bunch of them during their 50% off sale. Every one has a distinct voice. Every one of them is literally the best guitar sound I have ever heard. It's a great time to be a guitar player.

The fact that Ive been drifting towards playing Opeth styled tunes and just recently discovering you and feeling really inspired and to find you playing this opening riff, just feels like tile pieces aligning.

You are a huge inspiration for me Bea. I absolutely love the music you have been making, the gear demos and everything, been following from the early Dorje years, your tone is just amazing and to have that tone now with me feels immense. Kudos to you and the guys at Neural phenomenal job!! loving the plugin sooo much. Love from India❤

I bought this before I really knew what was in it. Man was I surprised. This is, by far, my favorite plug in. Ever. You get so much, it's not just a couple of guitar tones. I really really really encourage everyone to download the 30 day trial and play with it. I guarantee you'll buy it.

0:37 - Bea casually riffing "Closure" like it's nothing. My heart.

Deeper Underground is such a slept on riff! Great to hear it coming from you, Bea.

Neural Dsp - Please make such videos for all plugins.

Tried 5 or 6 of the neural plug-in’s and decided on Rabea’s. The range of tones is staggering. Love the Octaver. Undoubtedly the best I’ve ever heard. Haven’t even got into the synth yet. Awesome 👏🏻 🤘🏻👌🏻

❤

Hands down the best plugin I've ever used. The synth is amaaaazing BUT the two things that sold me in the first place are the fuzz and the octaver. Man, this package is more than I could have ever asked for. Thanks Bea and thanks Neural DSP 💚🙏

My gosh what an epic video! So proud of you and you deserve every opportunity that's been presented to you! Hearing you have cases of identity crisis at times was oddly humbling for me as I can relate in a few ways. Anyway, the plugin sounds amazing and I'm so happy you're finally getting the recognition you deserved all these years! Thanks for being you Bea, cheers!

Bought your plugin last week. I've never thought plugins were worth the trouble. How things have changed. It works very well. Now I just have to get the Synth to my liking. . Good for you. Neural is a great company. Nothing but a good experience, with them.

One of the most inspiring plugin in the past few years! Thank you very much!!

man, just bought it today and so far it’s my favorite plugin ever. I had to because it’s a small way to say “thank you Bea”, you make me fall in love with music AGAIN. Hope it will makes sense

huge thank you to rabea and neural dsp for making the best plugin in existence, ever. this plugin suite has completely changed how much i enjoy playing guitar forever. huge props man, and thank you

Just got archtype: Rabea, it’s my first neural product just really impressed 😇 great work to all involved 😎🎸

By far the most creative and fun Neural plugin. So many options to mangle sound. Its more sound design plugin than guitar plugin. Love it!

The whole thing is amazing but the SYNTH! The SYNTH! 🔥🤘🏻 love it

Im inmensly happy for you, Bea. Congratulations. You have inspired me so much in the last 5 years, you wouldn't belive (and Im sure that Im not the only one ho feels like that). Ode to the author became my favourite instrumental heavy music album and became you my guitar hero so please never feel like an impostor. Best hopes!

Bought that plugin. And WOOOOW. Such a great sounds. Really impressed with synth sounds. Can't stop playing, good job guys, all the best

Nobody is more deserving than you, Rabea! You've long been one of my favorite guitar players, not just on KZfaq, but in general. I bought this plugin last weekend and it haven't used anything else since, even my real amps/cabs. So many inspiring tones to be found. Great job Rabea and the fine folks at Neural DSP

My man, this plug-in has changed our life. We picked it up recently and have been having some of the most creative sessions to date. Cheers for making some black magic!

I don't regret 1 penny I spent on the RABEA Archetype....👌 Proud of this guy🙏. I got excited for him when this plug-in was announced...lol The song and promo video still gives me an emotional response. My taste in tone is very similar to BEA's so I instantly knew this was what I was spending my money on. The staff at Neural continue to kill it^ amazing job yall!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I fell in love with my first Neural plugin about a year ago and now have most of them. I never pull the trigger on on one until I check out Rebea’s thorough demo first. The Archetype: Rabea was a no brainer and the best to date.You think it can’t ever possibly be better but then Neural releases yet another killer plug-in. It’s a great time to be a guitarist! 🤘❤️🔥☄️🎸

Man played Closure and sent me back to 2003

That plugin has the best sound, in my opinion. Amazing!

Sooo cool to see this come together, as well as a little sneak peek inside Neural :) Been playing the plugin for a day so far and MAN.. there is SO MUCH to it and I love every single bit of it so far! Can't wait to fine-tune and also accidentally find fun sounds to use.

Rabea, please do a cover of Jamiroquai's deeper underground with this sick sound. I was instantly addicted to it. That would be just mental! Lovin it!❤️😍

Rabea's making ofs are easily some of my favorite vids on KZfaq. Congrats on creating this unreal plug-in!

Very cool to see the process!

You're one of the BEST guitarist ive ever heard and ive been listening to music for nearly 50 years.. You definitely deserve your own plug in. Chalkteeth forever. Peace man.

That spontaneous Jamiroquai riffage in the middle put a smile on my face. Good start to the morning.

I am so excited to learn Neural DSP chose to work with you, and was hoping they would. It was a great decision and you deserve this spot light! Can’t wait to check out your new plug-in and congratulations Bea!!! 🤘🏻

2:12 - Going Deeper Underground Nice one R!

Just got the plugin and I've been having a blast and this drops the same day! I've been comparing all Neural plugins and yours is by far the most versatile in my opinion as well as sounding the most musical- great job guys! Plus it looks badass

I love this plug-in - such great tones! The synth alone is worth the cost and my favorite guitar tone in the plug-in is "Buttery". I just can't help but hear you say "Buttery" in your accent every time I use it! Great job on this plug-in.

Humble and great player. You are exactly where you supposed to be. Thumbs up for the music and the plug in.

Your music is a revelation of a decade to me!

Amazing to see success happen to a genuinely humble and kind person. Congrats Rabea!

Neural DSP & Darkglass, just two sides of the same KICKASS!! Finland🤘🇫🇮 (Proud neighbor 🇳🇴😬)

I grabbed this plugin some time ago and I can easily say it is my favourite by far. Honestly, the hi gain amp is one I don't touch (a bit too much for my preference) but I can't get enough of the other two, and tinkering with presets to my own taste. THere's loads of stuff I haven't discovered, but you can see how much work and care was put into this. Seeing this "making of" now simply acknowledges everything. It is an incredible piece dude. COngratulations to you and the Neural team for putting this together, truly amazing.

Awesome stuff! Also, this video was timely - it reminded me that I wanted to pick up the plugin while it was on sale. Managed to slide in on the last day.

just bought the archetype plugin, it's awesome. love the doubler and transpose features, the synth sounds are pretty wild. the presets are many and also sound great. very easy to just plug and play with minimal tweaking. amazing job man.

OK so just watched the first 55 seconds of it and heard some clean Opeth run. Not a bad start my man :)

I don't want to brag too much about this but this is by far the best plugin they ever made. it is so versatile. it sounds so incredibly amazing.

So good to see how and where the plugins are made. Have been super curious to see where some of the videos have been made, so was great to see behind the scenes with that too.

It was amazing to watch the process. And thanks to the developers for implementing that last minute arpegiator change.

I bought this yesterday. Very impressive indeed!

Hey Bea, being a bridge between Victory and Neural how about trying to push a Victory Suite? Would be amazing to have their main lineup all in one plugin.

I just got one a couple of days ago, totally blown away with the sound quality. The presets are awesome, starting by the default setting, and the interface they chose is so nice. But what’s more important is that the amps feel alive. I have a Kraken V4 btw, which I love, so I can brag a bit that i can compare against the amp. 🐙

My Strat says, “Thank you!” Finally, there is a plug-in that makes my Strat sound fantastic! 🎸

Love this!

lovely plugin for a lovely dude/player! all in mate!

I tested your plugin for a week before pulling the trigger on it on Black Friday( Also got the Toneking lol) and I love it. It's super diverse. The Synth is mental, and it totally changed everything for me. I tend to play in my Rental Appartment, and beeing ably to get gnarly at 2 am with only my Headphones kinda makes playing the guitar Fun again.

Two monitors: Elden Ring on one, Reaper with Archetype: Rabea on the other. I really don't have any reason to leave my room or interact with other people in real life ever again. Killed it with this one dude

You deserve the recognition and success man! Best Regards and Best Wishes for 2023! Later: Busted a gut laughing at open bottles of liquid on a mixing desk with all that equipment and I was hoping to see the fro in a hair net back in manufacturing :)

Of all of my sims, this is my goto. I have 4 NeuralsDSPs, SGear, Helix and Amplitube, but Archetype: Rabea is both my OD and Clean choice. What a great job on this video and this plugin.

Your plugin is a God sent for me. Sounds great, have a lot of presets. No longer have to look anywhere else

Thanks for the behind the scenes video Rabea. You are a gent! Keep doing what you are doing. And now I have seen this, I realize I should have got the plug-in during the Black Friday sales - for the synth module alone. Haha.

Thanks for the insight Rabea! Playing sounds killer as always brotha!!!

Freakin Awesome you get to be in the Fact-Ory! Awesome Standalone Sim ! Get to watch how my Quad Was made!!!!

Cool vid! The neural HQ looks pretty flash and it was great to have a wide view of the plugin unveil venue. That video/tune is absolute fire.

This is awesome. I tested it last week. Haven't had this much fun with my Strat for ages. Bought it yesterday. Thanks

It’s really great to see you Rock out and perform in your videos. We seem to have entered another “shoe gaze” performance wave where chops equals sterile stage performances and I greatly appreciate seeing the music flow through and from you. Your tone(s) are Sick! You are destined for Greatness!

0:33 I WAS NOT EXPECTING CLOSURE HAHAHAHAHAH LOVE THIS GUY

Have been following you for years and just WOW! Congrats an all your success.

I’ve played through many amps but I never quite fell in love with my old hand-me-down Fender Strat until I played it through the clean amp in your plugin. I was lucky to get it on sale for Black Friday but I gladly would have paid full price if I knew it could make this dusty guitar sing. You really did nail the clean amp on this one

Opeth ftw

When you dropped ‘Deeper Underground’ I was sold 😂

Could you somehow convince them to make the synth into a standalone pedal? That would be great!

Nice one Rabea ! I love the plugin - truly is versatile. You are an inspiration !!

What a wholesome video :) Thanks for sharing your experience, so psyched for the plugin!

Congratulations! Really nice to see behind the scenes of all of the process. Amazing. 👏🏻👏🏻

LOVE this how its made type video. Loving the plugin! I have Plini, Gojira, Abasi, Wong, and Nolly, so I felt I could wait until Black Friday to buy Rabea. I bought it for the transposer and the doubler, but I have been loving the synth and general clean and distortion tones. It might be my new go-to!

Behind the scenes look, awesome!

The Don't Get Me Wong... Boy does it groove

this was awesome man. saving up for the moment and will definitely get your archetype !

Archetype Rabea is absolutely brilliant. Even without the amazing synth, it easily beats any of the other brands that I used to use ;) I added the Toneking Imperial and feel like a kid in a candystore. I don't know how, but Neural makes their amp sims feel extremely natural. Love dialing in roomsound to the signal which is really a secret sauce for me.

I really hope this gets an X version when they finally drop the OS update for QC… I use the rabea archetype more than anything else. It’s so good. I use a lot of synths and being able to sound design with guitar is so awesome, wouldn’t mind at all if they incorporated even more synthesizer utilities. I want serum in a guitar amp. lol

FINALLYYYYY!!!!! the wait it's over let the shred begins

Great plug-in best ambient and clean tones of all the neural stuff

You reminded me to listen to Deep Underground again! Happy for your success fella!

Your fro is almost as iconic as slashes top hat at this point 🤫

Oh man! So awesome! Congrats! Can’t wait to check it out! Gonna be a great addition to the studio along side the super kraken. :)

Jamiroquai?!

Way cool, so happy for you, cheers from Texas! 🤟😺🤟

This is so inspiring! ♥️ What a beautiful collaboration and the results are out of this world. I might be showing my age here, but I imagine Matt Bellamy would be hugely into this 🔥

So amazing to see so many of your successes dude! Have followed you from the early days and this is so well-deserved. Keep it going man! 🤘

Love the plugin!!

I own almost every neural plugin and yours is handsdown my favorite ... Cant point my finger on it ... But if i had to take a wild guess id say its the cabs

Awesome! Congratulations, Rabea, you deserve it!

I could have waited for Black Friday and got it cheaper, but I bought it on launch day because screw waiting. Still a go-to and I really think it will be a timeless classic.

I can't say that this is the most "complete" Archetype so far (I'm not in love with amp 3, even though it sounds okay IMO), but I would happily pay for just the pedals, cabs, amp 1 and amp 2! Amp 2 is simply the best sounding mid-gain, vintage sounding amp sim I've tried. It's goddamn spectacular! The fuzz is also the best ITB fuzz ever (IMO, ofc). Amp 1 is the best clean/crunch/fendery amp sim I've heard from Neural, as well. The synth is just the icing on the cake. It has the cleanest, and quickest, pitch-tracking I've tried (and it sounds sweet af). Considering all of of this, and that the high-gain amp sim market is so insanely over-saturated, I don't care that amp 3 is a bit weaker than the rest of the plug-in, this is still the best amp sim I've tried. Amazing work guys! 🙌

9:03 i like the way he surprises himself with the power chord

Bought the plugin...and then found out I also need a new PC to be able to run it :D Oh well....will buy one eventualy. Good job with the video, guys, love it.
