WHAT IS A REACTIVE LOAD?
The Reactive Load is a passive analog model of an actual speaker cabinet. It is comprised of resistive, inductive, and capacitive elements and has each of its various elements
arranged in empirically derived proportions so as to generate the exact response a popular 8 ohm 4x12 speaker cabinet presents at the output of a guitar or bass amplier. As a result,
the Reactive Load is able to produce the same non-linear impedance vs frequency characteristics as a typical speaker cabinet. The amplier then responds exactly as it would to a
real speaker cabinet. The signal produced at the Line-Out is then a scaled down electrical duplicate of the signal the amp normally delivers to a speaker. Even more impressively, it
results in the guitar retaining the same feel and dynamics.
