Product Description

This kit includes a vintage amplifier and custom speaker cabinets that can be mixed and matched between the

There is complete control over amps, cabinets, EQ, gain, and even room reverb, or you can load one of the 3 on-board presets (128 via MIDI) to get your exact sonic signature.

Four of the six cabinet impulse responses (IR) are high-quality the ABC Cab toggle switch allows you to choose your cab preferences

Create a computer model of the room in which your amplifier and cabinet will be located. The situation is the same as if you were tracking your amplifier in an environment where no reverb was present. An environment that reproduces the sound of a large, natural studio would appear best at maximum.

You can switch between preset volume levels and/or gain levels easily by using the Boost feature

Questions & Answers

Is anybody familiar with comparing the walrus to the strymon irridium side by side? There are a lot of similarities between the features. ?

The strymon sounds better to me than the, and I already have both. tried both models of amp, but I believe the Strymon model is close to the real thing. Plus it is very easy to use. To wrap it all up I have to admit, I like the xlr out on the Walrus, but most of the time, I use a QSC K8. I use the XLR output on it since it has 2 channels. In addition, I can use a monitor provided by the sound guy if I don't have my own.

Does it have the capability to drive studio headphones a little louder? Think it would be useful as a pedalboard for travel or practice?

My headphones are 50+ years old and I have resisted getting IEMs as I am new to playing without an amplifier. However, it drives my 50+ year old Koss Pro 4A headphones perfectly. I am listening to what is

This is an excellent simulator of amplifiers and cabinets

5/5

A used one had a lot of wear on it, so I returned it and received a There is nothing better than this. am very impressed with the amp sounds and you have great flexibility when it comes to mixing amps and cabs. I'm tempted to replace my cheap amp with a more expensive one after hearing this. My favorite part about this pedal is the way it It felt cheap compared to this one. I tried the Strymon Iridium. In addition, I find the sounds in this one more pleasing. This pedal is awesome!.

Has a good track record of completing Look somewhere else if you're expecting a pedal with a lot of gain, but if you'd like to experiment with very accurate modeling of three classic amplifiers, then this is the perfect pedal for you! It would be great if there were a way to disable the IRs so that you can run it in another cabsim

That would be my only change.

5/5

Although I am still learning how this works, it has made it possible for me to play live without an amplifier. Three weeks ago I played live for the first time without an amp, and I quickly discovered that small club equipment does not translate to plugging into a church board. As a result, I've used it once in church and it worked great. Having dialed something in and let it rip, I played through several of my favorite amps. In ear monitors might not be for me at first, but I'll let you know.
