ULTRA-G GI100
The ULTRA-G is based on the proven BEHRINGER OT-1 transformer, which
ensures crystal-clear, distortion-free sound and a wide, linear frequency re-
sponse. In addition, it can be powered by the consoles phantom power or by an
internal battery. The battery is automatically disconnected when phantom
power is present to preserve battery life.
+ In order to avoid damage to your loudspeakers, always mute the
corresponding channel on the consoles before connecting the
GI100. The same applies when switching between phantom and
battery power.
The GI100 features a switchable speaker simulation, developed in collaboration
with renowned amp designer Jürgen Rath, which adds the sound of a 4x12"
cabinet to your direct guitar signal at the touch of a button. Analog speaker
simulations, offering the possibility to get a typical guitar cabinet sound to tape
or to a PA without the necessity of cabinets or microphones, have been
available since the mid-80s. Since then, the appeal of instant sound via
simulation as a means of reducing equipment and hassle has continuously
grown. Having developed a great deal of convincing guitar gear with various
manufacturers, Jürgen Rath was an obvious choice for us in developing our
VIRTUAL 4x12" CABINET speaker simulation. In the words of Germanys top
specialty publication GITARRE & BASS, The Virtual Cabinet delivers an
authentic 4x12 simulation with impressive sound, cutting power and clear
reproduction. (Michael Dommers, 8/97)
