Fender’s FUSE software was the only way to edit presets on a generation of Mustang amps, and Fender discontinued it in March 2020. Plug, offa’s continuation of piorekf’s PLUG, is a desktop editor and preset librarian that talks to the amp over USB: amp models, effects, presets, saved to the amp or to disk.

- No AI use documented.
- caveats
- Linux-first (udev rule); packaged for Fedora, Debian multimedia and the AUR. Some Mustang v2 features are incomplete. No support for the later Mustang GT and LT, which use Bluetooth and the Fender Tone app.
