V-AMP
1. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! With the V-AMP you purchased a state-of-the-art virtual guitar amplifier that sets new standards
in preamp design. When developing the V-AMP our top-priority goal was to achieve the authentic sound of
classic amplifiers by means of physical modeling and combine it with latest DSP effects.
We accepted the challenge to create a device that will be considered revolutionary for years to come: Your
V-AMP is an all-purpose unit that gives you the authentic sound of specific amps and even speaker cabinets
without the transportation problems encountered with bulky amp/speaker stacks! Additionally, it provides
you with the audio features of state-of-the-art multi-effects processing. In a word: With the V-AMP we present
you with a sound tool that offers you anything you need in terms of guitar amplification.
BEHRINGER is an audio engineering company that has been successfully developing products for studio and
live applications for many years now. Our range of products includes microphones and a variety of 19" devices
(compressors, enhancers, gates, tube processors, headphone amps, digital effects devices, DI boxes, etc.)
as well as various monitoring and P.A. speakers plus professional live and recording consoles. And weve
packed all our technical expertise and know-how into your V-AMP.
To top it all, we asked experienced professional guitarists to create original artist presets for you. Just take a
look at the separate preset sheet for some inspiration!
We also set great store by flexibility, which has become a particularly important factor in the music business
over the past few years. Modern guitarists need to offer a broad range of sounds, but should still be able to play
in different kinds of applications at short notice: home recording, studio, live concerts. It is this particular
circumstance that has rendered huge amplifier stacks somewhat obsolete. With the V-AMP, on the other
hand, you have a maximum of features available in such a compact enclosure that you can set up or break
down your gear in seconds and have no problems controlling it.
Your V-AMP will be state-of-the-art for years to come, because we equipped it with an EPROM that can be
updated. In this way, we can keep working on new algorithms and considering your ideas and suggestions.
The resulting software updates will be made available for free on the Internet, so as to ensure that your V-AMP
will never be outdated.
Actions speak louder than words: Nothing will be more convincing than what you feel and hear when youll be
testing your V-AMP for the first time. You will experience a virtual next-generation guitar amplifier with astounding
features:
s Fantastic sound options that outshine anything a conventional guitar amp could offer.
s A perfect tube sound emulator that does not suffer from the drawbacks typically found in conventional tube
designs (short service life, heat production, mechanical stability).
s Latest DSP technology gives you an enormous variety of both classic and modern effect sounds.
s A rugged and compact enclosure that allows you to use your V-AMP anytime and anyplace.
1.1 The design concept
Weve designed the V-AMP to move ahead the world of digital guitar preamp design. From a technological
point of view, your V-AMP is absolutely state-of-the-art and its robust enclosure made of high-grade and
extremely durable ABS plastic material will make sure that your V-AMP will withstand even roughest handling
on the road.
1.2 Before you begin
