The V-AMP 3's 32 amp models are organized into four groups: CLEAN, BLUES, METAL and ROCK. Just twist the dedicated
dial to plug into unbelievably authentic simulations of the greatest British and American tube amps from the 1950s to today. You even get
models of uncommon—yet renowned—boutique tube amps! When you select an amp model, a speaker cabinet model is automatically selected. But
if you'd prefer a diff erent model, just go to EDIT>CABINETS, then use the BANK UP/DOWN buttons to navigate through all 15 options.
Just like on an actual guitar amp, you've got a three-band EQ, GAIN, REVERB, VOLUME and MASTER VOLUME dials. By holding the TAP button,
the TREBLE dial becomes a PRESENCE control. This enables the adjustment of a high-frequency fi lter that can add or remove a "shimmer" from the V-AMP 3's tone.
The V-AMP 3 gives you flanger, chorus, compression, delay and 12 other beautiful digital eff ects to apply to your sound.
Adjust the eff ect's level in the mix via the EFFECTS dial. To adjust effect parameters, you can rhythmically press the TAP button to alter
delay times or LFO speeds, or hold down the TAP button and twist the EFFECTS knob to access e.g. feedback or depth. By using a MIDI pedal,
such as the BEHRINGER FCB1010, you can access an additional Wah Wah effect. You can adjust the fi lter characteristic by entering EDIT mode,
selecting the DRIVE menu and turning the EFFECTS knob while holding the TAP button.
All of these elements have been combined into 125 different presets divided into 25 banks, accessible through the BANK UP/ BANK DOWN
buttons. Within each bank, you can press buttons A through E to explore its different presets. You can also create and save your own presets.
Start by selecting a preset, then making any changes you wish: amp, EQ, effect, etc. The preset LED will begin to flash, indicating that the
V-AMP 3 is ready to save your settings. To do this, hold the preset button down for about two seconds. Once the LED stops flashing, you have
saved the modified preset. On top of all this, the V-AMP 3 also features a built-in tuner and noise gate. In essence, it's a Swiss Army Knife for
the home recording enthusiast or gigging guitarist who can't seem to settle on one amp.
When using headphones, the V-AMP 3 will switch into Studio Mode 1 (S1). This stereo mode works well for both monitoring and recording with
effects, amp and speaker modeling. It doesn't apply the additional three-band EQ to the signal, but most recording programs have their own
EQ. In Studio Mode 2 (S2), the V-AMP 3 sends a signal with amp and speaker simulation, but only the right output has eff ects. You can
either record both left and right outputs to separate tracks, or record the "dry" left output while monitoring the right output.
Use Live Mode 2 to run the V-AMP 3 into the effects return inputs of 2 different guitar amps. This configuration does not feature speaker
simulation, allowing the amplifier's natural speaker sound to go unaltered. In this scenario, the amps would be mic'd on stage to get the
sound to the house speakers, and having a dedicated monitor would be less important. In Live Mode 3, you can send the left output to an amp's
eff ects return for onstage volume, while the right output sends signal to the main mixer for inclusion in the main house mix. Also note that
you can press the TAP key while turning the GAIN knob to adjust the input sensitivity to match the output of your guitar's pickups. If the
CLIP LED lights, the input's sensitivity should be reduced.
It's hard enough finding another virtual guitar amplifier with this much versatility, let alone one as economical as the V-AMP 3. This
go-anywhere, do-anything wonder will leave you reeling in your own creativity, with cash to spare for other gear you'll need along the way
to becoming a sonic titan both live and in your home studio.
