A Tight switch adds articulation, ensuring the amp remains responsive and focused even at higher gain settings. The Dirty channel also includes a footswitchable volume control, making it easy to toggle between rhythm and lead levels without compromising tone. Advanced Connectivity and Tone Shaping The Gain Baby 100 offers a variety of features to enhance your tone and integrate seamlessly with modern setups. A buffered FX loop ensures compatibility with pedalboards, maintaining signal integrity and consistency. The amp also includes a direct output for external impulse response (IR) or cabinet simulation, making it perfect for both live performances and studio recording. Additional tone-shaping options include a 3-band EQ for the Dirty channel and a Tight switch allowing players to sculpt their sound with precision.
