Features

• Input: Use this jack to connect your instrument via a standard ¼” mono cable.
• Blend: Use this knob to mix between the Clean signal and the Distortion signal (Microtubes Engine).
• Treble: +-12dB at 5kHz. Use this knob to change the high content of the signal.
• Drive: This knob controls the amount of distortion that the Alpha·Omega Engine will deliver. It will cover a wide range of overdriven tones from subtle break up to overly distorted sounds.
• Bass: +-12dB at 80Hz. Use this knob to change the low-end content of the signal.
• Master/Mute: Use this knob to control the overall volume of the amplifier. Use this push knob button to mute the amplifier.
• Microtubes:Use this push button to turn on or off the Microtubes Engine to add natural compression, organic harmonic enhancement, and saturation ranging from mild overdrive to high gain bass rage.
• B3K/VMT: This push-button switch selects between two overdrive voicings: B3K® mode will deliver an aggressive, percussive sound while the VMT will bring up the mids for a warmer, more neutral character.
• Mids: +-12dB at 250, 500, 1.5k and 3kHz. These sliders control the mid content of the signal.
• Passive/Active: Use this push-button switch to change from passive to active mode. If your bass is active it can have a hotter signal making the amp to distort early (feel free to use if such additional distortion is desired).
• Compression: This knob controls the amount of dynamic compression added to the Alpha·Omega Engine. The make up gain is adjusted automatically. The compression can be turned off or assigned using the Darkglass Suite.
• Dimensions: Width: 23 cm / 9″, Length: 18 cm / 7”, Height: 7.1 cm / 2.75″, Weight: 2.4 kg / 5.3 lb
• Tone:This knob controls the high harmonic content of the Microtubes Engine via a variable low pass filter: crank it up for additional attack and definition or dim it down for a smoother sound, especially handy if already running bright clean EQ setting or cabinets with tweeters.
