V-AMP 2 1. INTRODUCTION Congratulations! The V-AMP 2 you have purchased is the revised version of the V-AMP—a state-of-the-art virtual guitar amplifier that has set new standards. Our ultimate aim in developing it was to create the authentic sound of classic amplifiers by means of “physical modeling” and to combine this with the latest DSP effects. The V-AMP 2 has a number of decisive advantages over its predecessor, the V-AMP: the number of amp simulations has been doubled, there are now five g

V-AMP 2 1.2 Before you begin Your V-AMP 2 was carefully packed before it left the factory to protect it from damage in transit. If there are signs of damage on the packaging, we recommend that you immediately examine the device itself for further signs of damage. In case of damage, do NOT return this device to us, but immediately notify your dealer and the transport company, as any entitlement to damages may otherwise be lost. A power supply unit which meets the necessary safety requirements is

V-AMP 2 1 The MASTER control determines the overall volume of the V-AMP 2. Apart from the AUX LEVEL control this is the only “conventional” control on the V-AMP 2. All the other controls are encoder-type rotary controls. 2 The VOLUME control is for the volume of the selected preset. 3 The BASS control in the EQ section is for raising or lowering the low-frequency range. 4 The MID control is for raising or lowering the mid-range frequencies. 5 TREBLE controls the high-frequency range of the act

V-AMP 2 10 This control is for selecting an effect or a combination of effects. This encoder-type rotary control is also surrounded by a ring of 16 LEDs. Each LED corresponds to one specific effects preset. 11 Using the REVERB control, you can add the reverb content of your choice to your overall sound. By turning it to the left until all the LEDs are off, you deactivate the reverb. To fade out the original signal, turn the control to the right until only the last LED lights up. The LED rings a

You can connect the LINE OUT outputs with balanced or unbalanced jack plugs. The left line output of the V-AMP 2 can be used to route the audio signal to a guitar amp with a mono input. Please note that the signal from the multi-effects processor will then not be available in stereo either. 20 The

V-AMP 2 In modes L1, L2 and L3, the additional 3-band EQ is set with the BASS, MID and TREBLE controls. As this EQ works globally, it has no effect on the settings of these three controls from the preset programming. If you plug in your headphones, the V-AMP 2 automatically selects S1 mode. 2.1 Selecting CONFIGURATION modes Your V-AMP 2 left the factory set in Studio 1 (S1) mode. To change modes, you have to switch to CONFIGURATION mode. To do this, press buttons B and D simultaneously. You ca

V-AMP 2 2.3 Recording A widely used recording application is to make a “dry” recording of the output signal while monitoring the signal with effects (“wet”). The advantage here is that you don’t have to make a final decision on what effect to use during mix-down. For this purpose connect the left output of the V-AMP 2 to the recording device, and use the right output for monitoring. If you have a MIDI foot controller, you can use it to control preset, bank and amp model changes. It’s also conven

Thus, you can also optimize the sound on the amp with TREBLE, MID and BASS of the global 3-band EQ. 2.5 Live set-up with P.A. system and your own monitor amp on stage This application is intended to give you your own guitar signal on stage so that you can have complete control of intentionally produced feedback, for example.

The two arrow keys (BANK UP und BANK DOWN) enable you to switch banks. The display on the V-AMP 2 always shows which bank has been selected. When you switch banks, the preset has to be called up by pressing one of the buttons A - E. An LED lights up to show you which preset in the respective bank has been activated. 3.2 Editing presets Editing presets is

If you want to get the most authentic sound out of this amp, keep the sound control on the V-AMP 2 in the mid- range. CLASSIC CLEAN: Back in the 80s, the Roland JC-120 was the preferred sound of Buzzy Feiten (guitarist with the Dave Weckl Band). The unique quality of this transistor amp’s sound is the way its brilliance cuts through any mix. It is ideal for the New Wave sound of the 80

FUZZ BOX: This sound is not actually based on any one amp, but on a particular fuzz box. Jimi Hendrix was one of the first guitarists to recognize the potential in this legendary broadband transistor distortion. The humming distortion sound of the FUZZ B

Pronounced use of the compressor (using the EFFECTS control) allows you to compress the overall dynamic range of the material. AUTO-WAH: The legendary wah-wah effect owes its fame mainly to Jimi Hendrix. Describing it is certainly more difficult than simply listening to Hendrix using it on Voodoo Chile.
