Integrated Amplifier Modeling

Vintage and Modern Amp Models: There is really no need to have numerous vintage or modern amplifiers in storage or cluttering up space. The Millennium's unique Integrated Amplifier modeling puts almost every amplifiers tone under the hood. This feature gives you re-creations of many great Amplifiers including: Vintage Vox™ AC-30 top boosts, mid 70s’ Marshalls™ Master lead, Mesa Boogie™ Dual Rectifier stack and combos and Mark II stack and combo, Matchless™ DC-30s and Fender™ Twins and Soldano™ SLOs. To call up any of these Amplifier modelings, simply press any one of the 5 Amplifier Model buttons on the front panel and the selected Amplifier model is instantly called up.

Johnson Amplifier Models: The Johnson Amplifier Models offer amplifier tones that you never thought possible out of stock (un-modified) amplifiers. We at Johnson Amplification have basically taken the best of all Amplifiers and performed the custom mods on them. This means that you can now have the custom Marshall™ with the higher gain stages, or that Soldano™ with more low end, yet remains ultra quiet. And, if having these custom amp modifications were not enough, the Johnson Amplifier custom modules give you the ability to combine two Amplifier paths on the right and the left at the same time to produce “mammoth” guitar tones when a Morphing Expression pedal is assigned.

A-B channel switching: To give each modeled Amplifier in the Millennium even more flexibility, we have included A-B channel switching in each of the Amp models. This is a great function to use for adding distortion or boosting for solos. The A-B channel selector is conveniently located on the front panel of the Millennium and can be given expression pedal assignment for quick switching on the floor or via a MIDI device.
