Behringer V-AMP 3 manual 4

VIRTUAL AMPLIFICATION V-AMP 3

List of Effects

ECHO		Delayed and filtered repetition of
		the input signal.
DELAY		Delays the input signal, with different
		tempo settings emulating an early
		reflections room effect on the repetitions
		producing an echo-like effect.
PING PONG		A delay effect 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 effect.
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 flanger 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 filter 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 effect
		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SMALL COMBO	Based on a small, simple amp originally
	made for beginners, but it’s no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-simplified 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,
	flat 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, flat southwestern name, featuring a
	post-gain tone control for
	ultra-customized distortion.

	Page 4 of 5
NUMETAL HD	Much like the NUMETAL GAIN, this amp
	produces an even higher gain sound.
	The tone controls are most effective
	with the gain knob cranked.
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,
	modified 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 riffs.
ULTIMATE PLUS	Those who find the ULTRAZONIC too
	tame will find 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 influence 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	Unlike the BRIT CLASS A, this amp had
15 W	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 effects or the speaker simulation.
	To activate the PREAMP BYPASS,
	press TAP and TUNER simultaneously.
