V-AMP3
List of Effects
ECHO		Delayed and fi ltered repetition of the
		input signal.
DELAY		Delays the input signal, with diff erent tempo
		settings emulating an early refl ections
		room eff ect on the repetitions producing an
		echo-like eff ect.
PING PONG		A delay eff ect that alternates between the left
		and right channel/speaker.
PHASER		A second, phase-shifted signal is added to the
		audio signal, creating a wave-like eff ect.
FLANGER		Similar to a phaser in the fact that it produces
		wave-like modulation to the guitar tone.
CHORUS		Adds a slightly modulated off-key element to the
		original signal.
PHASER & DELAY		Phaser and delay combined.
FLANGER & DELAY		Combines fl anger and delay.
CHORUS & DELAY		Combines signal delay with chorus.
COMPRESSOR		Limits the dynamic range of the audio
		material, increasing sustain and giving notes a
		crisper quality.
CHORUS & COMP		Combines chorus and compression.
AUTO WAH		Alters a fi lter frequency automatically depending
		on the signal’s magnitude, giving notes a vowel
		sound-like quality.
TREMOLO		Volume is continuously modulated up and down
		to an adjustable tempo.
ROTARY		Simulation of the classic organ eff ect normally
		produced by speakers rotating at slow or fast
		speed inside a speaker cabinet.
NOISE GATE		Removes or reduces noise or other interference
		by muting the signal during breaks.

List of Amps

CLEAN

TUBE PREAMP	Tube amps add warmth to all kinds
	of sounds. By default, this amp
	model does not use a speaker
	simulation, and can be used with
	vocals, but adding a speaker cab
	produces good clean tones.
SMALL COMBO	Based on a small, simple amp
	originally made for beginners, but
	it’s no ”Tender Chump!“ With plenty
	of gain, it rewards you with
	compression and rich distortion.
CLASSIC CLEAN	Shake it up with this model—ideal
	for the New Wave sound of the 80s
	that is making a comeback today.
TWEED COMBO	A close cousin of the SMALL COMBO
	model, this super-simplifi ed
	model will toughen up your tone
	blow by blow!
CLEAN V-AMP	This model gives you the squeaky
	cleans of the CLASSIC CLEAN, but
	with the cutting power of one of
	the most famous British amps of
	all time. You’ll believe in miracles
	when you hear this ”plexi“ thing.
CALIFORNIA CLEAN	Based on the clean channel of a
	certain amp sharing a name with a
	big, fl at southwestern land form.
BLACK TWIN	Modeled after a famous 1960s 2x12
	combo amp that was exceptionally
	loud with low distortion.
CUSTOM CLEAN	Simulation of the clean channel
	from a very expensive boutique
	amp whose name rhymes with
	”stumble“. Loves compression.
BLUES
AMERICAN	Based on a timeless 60s 4x10
	combo originally intended as a
	bass amp but embraced by electric
	blues rockers.
FUZZ BOX	Not based on an amp, but a
	distortion box that debuted in the
	60s and provided ”big fuzz“ for 90s
	grunge bands.
DELUXE BLUES	A synthesis of the AMERICAN and
	the BLACK TWIN, giving you a
	greater EQ range.
V-AMP DRIVE	This simulation is based on a
	more modern high-gain lead amp
	that’ll make you wanna boogie.
	This produces a smooth and precise
	tone with plenty of drive, making it
	ideal for lead guitar work.
BRIT BLUES	Based on an amp that was
	considered the “cream” of the crop
	in the psychedelic 60s. Try it with a
	2 x 12" speaker simulation.
V-CRUNCH	Ideal for modern blues or jazz.
	Its sound is subtle, but crunchy
	and dynamic.
CUSTOM BLUES	Like the BRIT BLUES, but capable
	of a thick boutique distortion tone
	when the GAIN is cranked!
BRIT CLASSIC 50 W	50 W blues breaker sibling of our
	Brit Classic model with extensively
	widened sound range.
METAL
NUMETAL GAIN	Based on a 90s amp also bearing
	that big, fl at southwestern name,
	featuring a post-gain tone control
	for ultra-customized distortion.
NUMETAL HD	Much like the NUMETAL GAIN,
	this amp produces an even higher
	gain sound. The tone controls
	are most eff ective with the gain
	knob cranked.

	Page 4 of 5
SAVAGE BEAST	Half-English, so to speak, this
	model has extreme power and
	is therefore highly popular with
	heavy metal guitarists.
CUSTOM HI GAIN	Based on a variation of the BRIT
	BLUES, modifi ed by a famous
	eruption-inducing guitarist’s
	technician. Great midrange without
	the mud!
BRIT HI GAIN	Modeled after a big, bad stacked
	British amp renowned for its
	distorted sounds, but also great on
	low-gain settings.
MODERN HI GAIN	Another model with post-gain
	EQ, this amp can easily go
	from fuzzed-out grunge to
	laser-guided shredding.
NEW! ULTRAZONIC	New, aggressive, in-your-face
	hi-gain sound similar to the crunch
	channel of the BUGERA 333XL.
	Excellent for detuned, palm-muted,
	fast rhythm guitar riff s.
ULTIMATE PLUS	Those who fi nd the ULTRAZONIC
	too tame will fi nd enough gain
	here for an overdose, and nearly
	endless sustain.
ROCK
NEW! ROCK 59SL	Stands out for its extremely
	dynamic rock sound, dishing out
	fat clean tone as well as solid
	crunch. Here both input channels
	are bridged for parallel operation.
BRIT CLASS A	Simulation of an iconic double-
	wide British amp that helped a
	quartet of longhairs cause mass
	panic in the 1960s.
NEW! HI BRIT 100	Modeled after a custom high-watt
	amp that’ll have your audience
	wondering, ”How do you think
	he does it?“
CUSTOM CLASS A	Simulates an amp sharing a
	name with an obese Asian deity.
	Renowned for its warm sound
	combined with irresistible tube
	distortion. Although the original
	amp does not have a mid control,
	we have given the capability of
	suiting the midrange to your taste.
NEW! AMBER 120	Based on an amp that brings
	citrus-laden goodness to mind.
	Perfect for vintage distortion
	freaks. If you crank the gain,
	the preamp tone controls greatly
	infl uence the sound.
CLASS A NORM	This amp is characterized by its
	mild distortion and sounds almost
	like hi-fi . If there’s any match for
	this amp, we ain’t found it!
BRIT CLASSIC	Based on the second channel of our
	59SL amp model, this one provides
	a slightly darker range of clean and
	crunch sounds.
BRITISH CLASS A 15 W	Unlike the BRIT CLASS A, this amp
	had only one 12" speaker and
	produced a warmer sound. Tip:
	to make this simulation sound as
	authentic as possible, leave the
	BASS and MID controls in middle
	position and adjust the TREBLE
	control only.
PREAMP BYPASS	In this setting, no amp simulation
	is selected. This makes it possible,
	for example, to play through an
	external guitar preamp and only
	use the eff ects or the speaker
	simulation. To activate the PREAMP
	BYPASS, press TAP and TUNER
	simultaneously.
