    Hi, I'm working on my live looping setup and it's gonna be all in the box on my Win10 laptop. I need a light CPU amp sim for nice clean tone. Could you guys recommend me some?

    What is heavy CPU for me? I have Amplitube 4 and it eats around 12%. That's too much, I need that power for other plugins.

    Thanks!

    Though is designed for metal tones, TSE X50 2 is very light on CPU and RAM and sounds very good. You can have nice clean tones tweaking a bit. It has few effects but the ones included sounds nice (stereo delay for instance, you'll very likely want it for clean tones)
    Overloud TH3 also has low CPU usage, loads of presets and effects, but eats a lot of RAM.

    For clean tones Scuffam (I'll never learn that name properly) S-Gear seems to be great, but it also eats quite CPU, I'd say less than Amplitube 4, but it's been a while since I last tested it.
