Boardwalk puts six pedals on one screen in a fixed series order, patched together with cables. Each enclosure has its own knobs, its own footswitch and its own LED, so the thing you're looking at is the thing you'd be standing on.
Every pedal engages through a click-free crossfade, so switching one in or out mid-take doesn't pop — and a bypassed pedal is genuinely out of the path, not just turned down.
Linked-stereo compressor to even out the pick attack.
Pre-highpass into asymmetric clipping, with a tone control after it.
Chorus, flanger or phaser — mode-selectable on the box.
Resonant lowpass with an envelope-following auto-wah.
Analog-voiced feedback with stereo spread, and a SYNC switch that locks to host tempo.
Spring, hall or plate.
Each switch is wired to its pedal's bypass parameter, so your DAW can stomp for you on the way into a chorus.
A sun/moon toggle in the top rail. It's stored as a preference rather than a preset value, so it stays put while you audition sounds.
Brushed metal enclosures with corner screws, knurled knobs with printed tick scales, jewel LEDs, and 1/4" plug barrels on the cables.
The same take, before and after. Hit play, then flip between the raw signal and the plugin doing its thing — no reload, no gap.
Seven per style tile — enough to find the room you're in without scrolling past forty near-identical variants.
Save your own alongside them — they land in your user folder and survive updates.
Unzip, drop the .component into
~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components and the .vst3 into
~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3, then rescan in your DAW. It appears under
Award Audio Tools. A step-by-step INSTALL.txt is in the zip.
Virtual pedalboard — six stompboxes on one screen.
