Carl Martin Ampster Tube Guitar Amp Speaker Sim DI Effects Pedal Black

The Carl Martin Ampster, a single tube driven amp/speaker simulator that can either supplement your amp or replace it, is a fully analog unit with controls that are the same as your amplifier with the addition of a mute switch, a speaker selection switch and a voicing switch. The Ampster reacts to your playing in the same way your full size amp does, giving you the same organic feel with zero latency. It is housed in a solid metal box with the standard EQ (Bass Middle Treble), pre and post volume/gain controls (Master and Gain) plus a Presence Control. There is a Mute Switch and a Cabinet Switch with an LED Indicator light ( Red for a 2x12 Open Backed Cab, and Green for a 4x12 Closed Back Cab). On the back of the pedal you will find a Ground Lift and a Voicing Switch (a subtle low end cap controlled voicing adjustment). Input, Link (output to your amp or powered speaker) Balanced DI (XLR output to go to a mixing or recording console), a Send and Return for those specific effects that shouldn’t be in front of the amp, a Remote Input for use with digital or analog effect controllers like the Carl Martin Octaswitch ‘The Strip�?and your standard 9V 1A power input. Plug your guitar straight in, or plug your pedal board into the input jack, choose your output and open your ears to a surprisingly big round clean sound, or by adjusting the Gain, that decidedly British Overdrive sound for which Carl Martin has become so well known.
