VOX Valve Reactor for true tube power amp sound and
feel
The AD15VT and AD30VT feature our patented VOX Valve Reactor found on all
Valvetronix products. The Valve Reactor circuit uses a 12AX7 triode vacuum tube
together with an actual low-wattage tube power amp circuit, a virtual output
transformer and a dummy speaker circuit that simulates the impedance changes of
a real speaker. It also reconfigures itself so that its characteristics are the
same as the amps it’s modeling (class A, class AB, negative feedback circuit,
etc.) This means that all of the nuances of the original amp model including
sound, feel, distortion and presence are reproduced accurately.
Eleven realistic amp models using sophisticated modeling technology
A total of eleven coveted amp types are provided. Starting
with the classic AC30 and ranging from vintage to modern, hi-gain to clean, a
variety of amp models are built-in, giving you an incredible range of
sound-creating potential. Selecting the amp model and adjusting the tone
controls is as intuitive as it gets – just turn the knobs!
Eleven high-quality effects cover the basics
Nine standard effects indispensable for any
guitarist are built-in. These include auto wah, compressor, phaser, chorus,
flanger, tremolo, rotary, delay and reverb. With the addition of
combination-type effects, you have a total of eleven effects to choose from.
Each effect lets you adjust several parameters. There’s also a Tap button that
makes it easy to set the delay time or modulation speed.
Save your user programs in CH1 or CH2
Channel Select mode lets you save two of your own programs, including the
combination of amp and effect settings. You can access either channel at a
touch, for immediate switching while you play.
Easily select the classic sound for each amp type
The new Preset mode gives you a tonal starting point for each amp model. You can
enter Preset mode at the touch of a button, and then simply choose an amp model
to automatically get the preset sound for that amp. Select a Preset, modify it
and save it into CH1 or CH2.
Manual mode lets you hear your exact sound settings
In Manual mode, the sound you’re hearing will be exactly what the knob settings
indicate – just as on a conventional amp. It’s visually intuitive, so it’s quick
and easy to create just the sound you’re looking for.
Convenient line/headphone jack for home recording or late-night practicing
You can connect the line/headphone jack to your mixer, multi-track recorder or
headphones. Since the character of the cabinet is also added to this signal, the
sound will have a sense of “air” and depth even when you’re listening through
headphones or recording direct.
Adjust the output wattage of the power amp
The AD30VT lets you adjust the output wattage from 1~30W, so you can lower the
volume without losing the sense of drive that’s unique to tube amps. You can get
the great distinctive tube sound at a volume that’s appropriate for any
location.
Footswitchable control
If the optional VFS2 dual foot switch is connected, you can use it to switch
between user programs (CH1, CH2) or to bypass the effect. Alternatively, you can
choose to have the footswitch activate Manual mode instead of Effect Bypass,
which gives you hands-free switching between three different sounds (the two
user programs and the Manual settings) for convenience during a live
performance.
