Putting just the right glaze on your guitar or bass guitar sound is a real treat. Effects pedals today are a far cry from the three-dial step pad models many of us knew in our youth. Manufacturers have been pushing the envelope to expand the scope of these footswitches and the six and four stringers of the world are the beneficiaries. Pedals today offer more sound versatility, function and greater ease of operation. Plus, most of them look darn cool as well.
One of the biggest technological advancements that's been embraced by effects pedals is operational consolidation. Today, instead of a string of connected pedals for the sounds you need you have these multi-operational units that can offer you them all in one pedal. It's a win-win all across the board. Not only is it all-in-one convenience but it's less gear and less clutter at your feet when you're on stage.
Renowned German audio manufacturer Behringer is very much on board with the revolution. Their line of V-AMP are packed with multiple and amp and speaker simulation models that mean you can emulate classic sounds created on classic gear. Dial away to get authentic simulations of the best British and American tube amps of the last fifty years. With each amp comes a select matching speaker cab, but you can mix and match between the two for unique combos. Further, your "super" pedal is a guitar amp in itself and just like one would it has a three-band EQ, Gain, Reverb, Volume and Master Volume dials to additionally customize the pairing you've selected.
The effects dial will turn you into a kid in a candy store. Fifteen effects are at your fingertips, including flanger, chorus , compression, delay and more. These pedals also feature an edit mode where can filter the characteristics of each effect and the tap button will alter delay times or LFO speeds. Enjoy and explore all of the pedal's 125 different presets or create and save your own. A built-in tuner and noise gate strengthen Behringer V AMP guitar pedals being identified as multi-function effects components that offer you more with less. Direct MIDI interface connectors and idealized stage and studio operating configurations are added bonuses as well and offer real practicality when tailoring your sound for a particular setting.
When you weigh these pedals as a whole it's natural to summarize them as being more than just pedals. Just as Behringer describes them, they are go-anywhere and do-anything wonders that'll have you reeling in your own creativity. Now take stock of the fact that purchasing one will cost far less than what you'd expect for such a wealth of performance features and it's surprising your not one your way to your nearest retailer already.
