TapDelay

This creative delay effect unit can be used to create interesting and unusual delay effects thanks to the 8 totally independent taps. You can create groov-ing rhythm patterns by combining more taps with a specific time signature, and you can mix this up with psychedelic reverse tape effects you are able to set for each tap.

The TapDelay is actually 8 delays in one single unit, and it is possible to set time, timbre, and level for each of them. In addition, you can globally control with single knobs parameters for all the 8 taps simultaneously, like time, dry/wet mix and feedback amount.

Controls:

• TIME: globally shifts the delay time of all the 8 taps. This is a relative control, when set at the center position (1x) it does not alter the time that has been setup on each Tap, when set to minimum (0.25x) it divides all times by four and when set to max (4x) it multiply all times by four. Use it to globally change the delay tempo without changing the relations between all taps.

• MIX: globally adjust the effect mix between the Dry signal and all the 8 delay taps.

• FEEDBACK: globally adjust the amount of feedback the delay will have. When set at maximum, the delay will be sustaining itself.

• TAP: use these buttons to select which one among the 8 delay taps you’re going to edit with next controls

• LEVEL: sets the audio level for the selected delay tap.• TIME: sets the delay time for the selected tap. It can be shown in

milliseconds or in musical divisions, depending on the BPM Sync switch position.

• FILTER: sets the timbre for the selected delay tap, darker at minimum and brighter at maximum.

• REVERSE: enable this button to transform the selected delay tap from normal to reverse. When set to reverse a delay tap will sound like a reversed tape loop.

• LINK: enable this button to make a changes to the above mentioned parameters to apply to all the 8 taps at the same time.

• BPM SYNC: allows the effect to synchronize to the project tempo.

Rezo

A unique effect that can add synth-like drones and sustaining resonances to your parts. Make your guitar sound like a sitar or like a synth-drone to cre-ate sonic resonances to sing on and control the notes with your controller to create arpeggios and steps while playing.

You have 4 resonating voices that can be tuned independently from note E0 to note B7, in half tone steps. For example, if you want to create a resonating C Major chord, just set the first three voices to C3, E3 and G3.

By moving the All slider you can shift the recently created Chord without changing the intervals between the voices.

You can set the desired voice note by note number or by frequency in Hz.

Controls:

• 1-4 SLIDERS: sets the pitch for each resonating voice.• 1-4 VALUE DISPLAY: displays which note each voice is tuned on.• NOTE/FREQUENCY SWITCH: turn On this switch to have the tuning of

each voice displayed as a note. Turn this Off to have the tuning of each voice to be displayed as frequency in Hz.

• ALL: shifts all resonating notes by the same amount keeping relative intervals between voices identical.

• RES: sets the amount of resonance for each voice, from min to max. When set to max the note will sustain by itself, when set to min the voice will not be resonating

• SCALE: the Rezo is setup by default to span over a chromatic scale when you set the resonating voices, meaning that all half tones are possible. If you want to set another scale and want to remove notes from the chromatic scale just open this menu and leave on only the notes you need.

• FILTER: determines the brightness of the resonating voices, from dark (lower positions) to bright (upper positions).

• MIX: sets the amount of resonating notes you want to hear. When the control is at min you’ll only hear the original sound, when fully up you’ll only hear the effected sound.

• OUT: the resonating notes can become very loud. Use this control to adjust the overall output level of the Rezonator.

Controls:

• DEPTH: sets the depth of the volume swell, in dB. By default the depth is at max position, meaning that the volume will start from silence. By lowering this control you’ll make the effect to start the swell phase from a level which is higher than silence, up to min position that makes the effect to have no action.

• SENS: this control sets the sensitivity for the Swell to recognize a new note or chord and therefore start a new Swell cycle. Set it higher if you want the Swell cycle to start even at the beginning of softer passages, or set it lower if you want the Swell cycle to only start for louder strikes.

• TIME: sets the length of the Swell cycle. During the Swell cycle (time the swell takes to “open” the power LED becomes red (it is normally green). This helps to immediately recognize when the swell is trig-gered.

• BPM SYNC: allows the effect to synchronize to the project tempo mak-ing the swell time to be specified in musical figures.

Acoustic Sim

Turn your electric guitar into an acoustic guitar with the Acoustic Sim! Mix three guitar body styles with three types of top end to dial in your acoustic sound. Equalize the result with a 2-band post EQ.

Controls:

• SOURCE: select the type of pickup you are using: single coil or hum-bucker.

• BODY: choose between three types of acoustic guitar bodies: 1: dread-nought body. 2: 12-string guitar body. 3: Classical guitar body.

• TOP: choose between three types of top end response. Although types A, B, C have originally been designed to match their respective 1, 2, 3, bodies, you can experiment with any cross combination.

• MIX: mixes the acoustic sound with the magnetic pickup sound. When Mix is set to 0, you get a filtered version of your dry signal, without any body and top end applied. When Mix is set to 10, you get the acoustic sound only. Turn Mix from 10 downwards to progres-sively add the mid frequencies of the magnetic pickup.

• BASS: increases/decreases overall bass frequencies.• TREBLE: increases/decreases overall treble frequencies.

IMPORTANT: In order to obtain a satisfying acoustic sound, you should bypass the amp and cabinet sections by pressing the power icon on these two sections.

2.1 Clean

American Clean MKIII

This is a model of the clean channel from a popular and sought after American amplifier. The signature tone can be heard on many albums and many stages around the world. Experience a sparkling clean with the capa-bility for a touch of crunch when cranked up.

This beautiful amp is crystal clear but can also deliver edgy sounds by push-ing the Master volume, and can deliver a nice preamp crunch tone when Rhythm 2 is engaged.

This amp is extremely versatile you can really get many types of clean or edgy tones from its incredibly flexible preamplifier. By selecting two differ-ent preamp shapes (Rhythm 2), and by adapting the tone with the Shift and Deep switches, you can really shape your clean/edgy sound in almost all possible ways. Add the final 5 band graphic EQ and the tonal possibilities are really wide. But be careful, this is not a ‘set and forget’ amp. Being it extremely versatile it can of course be set to a tone that could be totally far from what is needed on that part. It needs a degree of experimentation and experience before you can really master it!

2.3 Lead

American Lead MKIII

This is the lead channel of a renowned three-channel American amplifier, known for excelling at both clean and lead sounds. This channel can be big and aggressive when you want some California crunch and you can get smooth, tasty sustained lead sounds too.

This amp is extremely versatile, you can really get almost any type of sound from its incredibly flexible preamplifier. By calibrating the various gain stages (Volume -> Lead Drive -> Master), by selecting two different preamp shapes (Rhythm 2), and by adapting the tone with the SHIFT switches, you can really shape your driven sound in almost all possible ways. Add the final 5 band graphic EQ and the tonal possibilities are really endless. But be careful, this is not a ‘set and forget’ amp. Being it extremely versatile it can of course be set to a tone that could be totally far from what is needed on that part. It needs a degree of experimentation and experience before you can really master it!

Controls:

• LEAD DRIVE: sets the amount of gain of the lead stage. Increase this to have more sustaining distortion and decrease it to get a more edgy and crunchy type of distortion.

• VOLUME: sets the gain of the initial stage. This is the gain that comes before all others in the amp signal path.

• MASTER: sets the power amp level. This is the latest level in the amp signal path. Setting high gains in the preamp (Volume and Lead Drive) and also setting Master to a very high level can result in an overly pushed sound that could be difficult to obtain a good sound. Keep this at high levels only if Volume and Lead drive are not so high.

• TREBLE: sets the amount of high frequencies on the sound.

Brit 8000

The new Brit 8000 is based upon the early 80s JCM800, the amp that although most think of the Plexi’s as the defining tone of a pushed Marshall, in reality it’s the JCM800 that people are hearing. The JCM800 was the first departure from the Plexi format designed for players who desired a “hotter” front end and more control over the overall output volume. The result? More preamp overdrive and crunch at controllable volumes.

Brit Silver

Based on the 1987 Marshall Silver Jubilee commemorating the 25th anniver-sary of the Marshall company, the Brit Silver features the 3-gain mode of the preamp circuit “clean”, Rhythm Clip and Lead. The Silver Jubilee was also the first Marshall to feature an output power section that could be switched from full to 1/2 power, thus providing that JCM800 tone at reasonable volumes. The Brit Silver faithfully recreates the original Silver Jubilee down to every minute detail for hyper-real authentic Marshall tone.

Brit Valve Pre

Rounding out the new Brit series of amps is a preamp model based on the Marshall JMP-1 valve preamp. The JMP-1 was Marshall’s first foray into the world of MIDI control with Marshall tone. It allows players to sculpt the tones they want, then save those tone presets for recall by MIDI control at any time. It’s one of the most simple preamps, very straight forward. It has the staple Marshall controls like Volume, Gain, Bass, Middle, Treble and Presence. It features a bass shift, 2 overdrive channels, and 2 clean channels. For its ease of use and its “ready to go” sound character, it quickly became one of the most iconic Guitar preamps of the era. Almost 90% of the pro players at the time had a JMP-1 in their rack of toys.

Red Pig

This gem from the 60s is based on the Marshall Major 200 “Pig” (as it was nicknamed) made famous by players like Ritchie Blackmore, Jimmy Page, Joe Perry and at times Stevie Ray Vaughan. It was originally produced for play-ers who needed more stage volume and sported a full 200 watts powered by KT88 power tubes.

2.4 Bass

360Bass Preamp

This amp toured and recorded for years with one of the biggest and bold rock bands ever. Classic rock tones are a natural with this amp, but it is also known for being used by one of the most famous jazz bassists of all time. Show no quarter and make your bass kill with this amp-solid state but loud and proud.

When paired with its Matching cabined (1x18” Horn Bass) it can sound really dark when compared to today’s bass amps, but that’s the magic of it!

Controls:

• BRIGHT: boosts brilliance of the preamp, especially when the Volume control is kept low.

• VOLUME: sets the overall volume of the amp. Set it low for pure and clean tones and push it for driven sounds.

• TREBLE: sets the amount of mid and high frequencies on the sound.• BASS: sets the amount of low frequencies on the sound.• RANGE: forms a semi-parametric midrange equalizer together with

Effect. Use the Range control to select the center frequency of the mid frequency equalization process among 5 positions.

• EFFECT: forms a semi-parametric midrange equalizer together with Range. Use Effect boost or cut the midrange frequencies selected with the Range control.

• FUZZ: turns On the built-in Fuzz effect.• GAIN: sets the output volume of the Fuzz effect.• ATTACK: sets the type of Fuzz effect that is applied. When set to Min

the sound is similar to a smooth overdrive, when moved toward max the sound gets more aggressive and fuzzy.

This model has a flatter frequency response than most other dynamic mics. This mic is highly regarded as a guitar mic and used widely in studios all over the world.

Page 112: AmpliTube 4 Deluxe Gear Models

4 - Microphones 112

AmpliTube 4 Deluxe Gear Models

Dynamic 609

This is a model of a faithful and popular microphone used daily in many studios and can be found “hanging around” there or on stages everywhere. This dynamic microphone can deliver honest yet punchy sounds. Can result in very mid-rangey sounds at times, but this is sometimes what you want, especially when combined with a warmer condenser microphone.

4.2 Condenser

Condenser 84

No microphone collection would be complete without a great small dia-phragm condenser mic. This model is based on the standard for small dia-phragm mics. As with any good small condenser mic, the 84 provides a clean clear picture of the guitar tone.

Page 114: AmpliTube 4 Deluxe Gear Models

4 - Microphones 114

AmpliTube 4 Deluxe Gear Models

Condenser 87

This is a model of one of the most popular large diaphragm mics ever. It can be found in any large recording studio mic locker. Because of its excellent frequency response curve, the 87 has become the go-to mic when needing a clean, flattering sound.

Chapter 5 Rack Effects

5.1 Delay & Reverb

Digital Delay

This advanced delay modeled effect can add a variety of depth to the sound, by providing five different delay modes. The delay can also be synched to the host tempo providing even more flexibility.

Controls:

• MODE: sets the output mode of the Delay effect; Stereo, Left/Right, Mono, Left/Center/Right, and Doubler.

• DELAY TIME: sets the time between the echoes, from 1 ms to 2000 ms.• BPM SYNC: allows the effect to synchronize to the project tempo and

changes the Rate control to beat values.• FEEDBACK: changes the amount of time that the delay repeats, from

0% to 100%.• FILTER: sets the low pass filter for the delay effect, from 200 Hz to

20 kHz. When set to mid values it gives a nice warmth to the delay timbre.

• MIX: adjusts the amount of wet sound with the dry sound, from 0% to 100%.

• OUT LEVEL: sets the output level of the effect, from -15 dB to +15 dB.

Page 122: AmpliTube 4 Deluxe Gear Models

5 - Rack Effects 122

AmpliTube 4 Deluxe Gear Models

Digital Reverb

This digital reverb is capable of adding small amount of space to a signal or creating a huge hall around the instrument.

Controls:

• DECAY TIME: sets the length of the reverb, from 0.60 seconds to 14.00 seconds.

• DENSITY: sets the number of reflections generated by the reverb, from 0 to 99.

• COLOUR: sets the reverb coloration from dark to light, from 2 kHz to 20 kHz.

• MIX: adjusts the amount of wet sound with the dry sound, from 0% to 100%.

• OUT LEVEL: sets the output level of the effect, from -15 dB to +15 dB.

Page 123: AmpliTube 4 Deluxe Gear Models

5 - Rack Effects 123

AmpliTube 4 Deluxe Gear Models

Tap Delay

This creative delay effect unit can be used to create interesting and unusual delay effects thanks to the 8 totally independent taps. You can create groov-ing rhythm patterns by combining more taps with a specific time signature, and you can mix this up with psychedelic reverse tape effects you are able to set for each tap.

The TapDelay is actually 8 delays in one single unit, and it allows you to set time, timbre and level for each one of these units. In addition, you can glob-ally control with single knobs parameters for all the 8 taps at the same time, like time, dry/wet mix and feedback amount.

Controls:

• TIME: globally shifts the delay time of all the 8 taps. This is a relative control that works in this way:• When set at the center position (1x) it does not alter the time that

has been setup on each tap.• When set to minimum (0.25x) it divides all times by four. • When set to max (4x) it multiply all times by four. Use it to globally change the delay tempo without changing the rela-tions between all taps.

• MIX: globally adjust the effect mix between the Dry signal and all the 8 delay taps.

• FEEDBACK: globally adjust the amount of feedback the delay will have. When set at maximum, the delay with be sustaining itself.

• TAP: use these buttons to select which one among the 8 delay taps you’re going to edit with next controls.

• LEVEL: sets the audio level for the selected delay tap.• TIME: sets the delay time for the selected tap. It can be shown in

milliseconds or in musical divisions, depending on the BPM Sync switch position.

• TAPS DISPLAY: shows each Tap as a vertical bar. The horizontal position of the bar represent the delay time, the height of the bar represent the audio level.

• FILTER: sets the timbre for the selected delay tap, darker at minimum and brighter at maximum.

• REVERSE: enable this button to transform the selected delay tap from normal to reverse. When set to reverse a delay tap will sound like a reversed tape loop.

• LINK: enable this button to make a change you do on the above men-tioned parameters to apply to all the 8 taps at the same time.

• BPM SYNC: allows the effect to synchronize to the project tempo.

Controls:

• DRIVE: controls the amount of signal that is input into the effect, set-ting the compression level.

• ATTACK: controls the amount of time that the compressor takes to react to the audio signal.

• RELEASE: controls the amount of time that the compressor takes to return to normal gain after some compression has occurred.

• RATIO: controls the strength of the compression. Higher values will result in a more evident effect.

• OUT LEVEL: sets the output level of the effect, from -15 dB to +15 dB.

5.3 Filter

Rezo

This rack model is a unique effect that can add synth-like drones and sus-taining resonances to your parts. Make your guitar sound like a sitar or like a synth-drone to create sonic resonances to sing on and control the notes with your controller to create arpeggios and steps while playing.

You have 4 resonating voices that can be tuned independently from note E0 to note B7, in half tone steps. For example, if you want to create a resonating C Major chord, just set the first three voices to C3, E3 and G3.

By moving the All slider you can shift the recently created Chord without changing the intervals between the voices.

You can set the desired voice note by note number of by frequency in Hz.

• 1-4 SLIDERS: sets the pitch for each resonating voice.• 1-4 VALUE DISPLAY: displays which note each voice is tuned on.• NOTE/FREQUENCY SWITCH: turn on this switch to have the tuning of

each voice displayed as a note. Turn this off to have the tuning of each voice to be displayed as frequency in Hz.

• ALL: shifts all resonating notes by the same amount keeping relative intervals between voices identical.

• RES: sets the amount of resonance for each voice, from min to max. When set to max the note will sustain by itself, when set to min the voice will not be resonating.

• SCALE: the Rezonator is setup by default to span over a chromatic scale when you set the resonating voices, meaning that all half tones are possible. If you want to set another scale and want to remove notes from the chromatic scale just open this menu and leave on only the notes you need.

• FILTER: determines the brightness of the resonating voices, from dark (lower positions) to bright (upper positions).

• MIX: sets the amount of resonating notes you want to hear. When the control is at min you’ll only hear the original sound, when fully up you’ll only hear the effected sound.

• OUT: the resonating notes can become very loud use this control to adjust the overall output level of the Rezonator.

Step Filter

This is a powerful and deep beat sync filter effect. You will be able to apply Low/High and Band pass analog modeled filtering on freely customizable patterns to add groove and rhythmic pulsing to your parts. This will make your guitars and bass parts to sound like a rhythmic synth, if you want it.

Controls:

• CUTOFF: sets the center cutoff frequency of the filter. This is the cutoff frequency the filter will have when the steps are set to half position.

• STEP BAR: click on the Steps to set each step level. You can also draw a curve while holding the mouse while dragging over multiple steps.

• RES: sets the center resonance of the filter. This is the resonance amount the filter will have when the steps are set to half position.

• DEPTH: sets how deep the filter is modulated by the steps.• HP/BP/LP: sets which kind of filter will be used: HP: high pass, BP:

band pass, LP: low pass• 12/24: sets the steepness of the filter, 12 dB/oct will be softer, 24 dB/

oct will be steeper.• DEST: sets what is modulated by the steps between filter Cutoff and/

or filter Resonance. At full minimum position only Cutoff frequency is modulated, at max position only Resonance is modulated.

• DIVISION: sets what time interval each step represent.• STEPS: sets the number of steps the cycle will consist of.• MODE: When set to Free the cycle will be continuous and will always

cover all the steps that are specified in the Steps parameter. When set to Strike the cycle will re-start each time a chord or a note is played.

• SWING: increase this control to give to the steps a swing type quan-tization.

• BPM SYNC: allows the effect to synchronize to the project tempo.

Harmonator

The Harmonator is an advanced harmonizing effect with three separate voices, each with independent harmony, level and pan. By entering the key and scale that the instrument is playing, the harmonator analyzes the input signal and track the three independent voices to the correct music key and scale (figure 10.17).

figure 10.17

Controls:

• KEY: controls the key and type of scale that will be used by the har-monizer as a reference. If you’re playing a solo in E major set this to E Major, from C to B.

• SCALE: changes the scale of the harmonizer, including Major, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Minor, and Locrian.

• VOICE: controls the properties of each of the 3 voices of the harmo-nizer.• 1: selects voice 1 for editing.• 2: selects voice 2 for editing.• 3: selects voice 3 for editing.

• INTERVAL: changes the interval of the selected voice, from low octave to up octave.

• LEVEL: independently adjusts the level of each of the 3 voices, from 0 to 100.

• PAN: independently adjusts the panning of each of the 3 voices, from 1.0L to 1.0R.

• DRY PAN: adjusts the panning of the dry signal independently from the harmonized voices, from 1.0L to 1.0R.

• MIX: blends the harmonized voice with the original voice, from 0% to 100%.

Step Slicer

Add programmed rhythmic parts to your power chords and phrases with this powerful and creative beat synced slicing effect. It can be setup to cre-ate anything from the most amazing tremolos to the most complex rhythm effects that always stay in perfect sync with the beat.

It contains two independent stepping engines, one for Level and one for Pan, so you can create independent patterns for level and panning within the same synched effect.

Controls:

• LEVEL: sets the amount of level modulation the steps will give. At min position the steps will not have effect, at maximum the steps range will be full.

• STEP BAR: click on the Steps to set each step level. You can also draw a curve while holding the mouse while dragging over multiple steps.

• RAMP: sets the steepness of the level change between steps. Set it at lower positions to get a more gate-like effect, or set it to higher posi-tions to get a smoother effect.

• DIVISION: sets what time interval each step represents.• STEPS: sets the number of steps the cycle will consist of.• VOLUME: select this to work on the Volume steps pattern.• PAN: select this to work on the Panning steps pattern.• MODE: When set to Free, the cycle will be continuous and will cover

all the steps that are specified in the Steps parameter. When set to Strike, the cycle will re-start each time a chord or a note is played.

• SWING: increase this control to give to the steps a swing type quan-tization.

• BPM SYNC: allows the effect to synchronize to the project tempo.

Swell

This is an “auto volume” swell processor that can automatically create fan-tastic swell effects while playing without any manual intervention. Use it subtly to add groove to your rhythm parts or use it with deeper settings to create dreaming pads or string-like sounds.

Controls:

• DEPTH: sets the depth of the volume swell, in dB. By default the depth is at max position, meaning that the volume will start from silence. By lowering this control you’ll make the effect to start the swell phase from a level which is higher than silence, up to min position that makes the effect to have no action.

• SENS: this control sets the sensitivity for the Swell to recognize a new note or chord and therefore start a new Swell cycle. Set it higher if you want the Swell cycle to start even at the beginning of softer passages, or set it lower if you want the Swell cycle to only start for louder strikes.

• TIME: sets the length of the Swell cycle. • SWELL: this LED goes On during the Swell phase.• OPEN: this LED goes On when the Swell phase has finished.• BPM SYNC: allows the effect to synchronize to the project tempo mak-

ing the swell time to be specified in musical figures.
