Where are the tubes?
Ask any guitarist what they want
most from an amp and they’ll answer
with a single word — TONE. That quest
for tone drove us to develop our family
of VIRTUBE ampliers. Our proprietary
VTC (Virtual Tube Circuitry) gives these
amazing amps their in-your-face tube-amp
tone. Amps with such rich, harmonic
character and buttery tube-like goodness,
you’ll wonder where we hid the tubes.
All VIRTUBE amps have
split-personalities: one that features
dulcet-clean output, and one that drives
your tone with an aggressive punch
that only tubes, or our VTC modeling,
can generate. So when the time comes,
you’ll be ready for everything from
mellow blues to metal mayhem.
Revolutionary VTC Technology
The secret behind VIRTUBE’s incredible
sound is our VTC Tube Modeling
processor, which exudes the very essence
of tube saturation and compression.
But VTC does so much more than just
generate a cheap copy of a specic amp
character. It accurately emulates the
interaction between classic tube stages,
responding to the subtle tonal changes
that occur when one stage hands the
signal o the next. The resulting signal
is rich in harmonic content and far more
true to the nature of tube amps.

Two-Channel Operation
VIRTUBE’s Clean channel is elegant
in its simplicity. The sound is open
and uncolored and can be tailored to
your needs by Volume and the analog
passive equalizer. The Overdrive channel
features Gain, Volume, Bass, Treble and
our proprietary Contour control, with its
radical midrange sweep. All this versatility
enables you to artfully dene your
“perfect” tone, from traditional to scooped
modern and anything in-between.
Digital FX
All VIRTUBE models, with the exception
of the VT15CD, come with state-of-the-art
eects — and not some cheap-and-cheesy
reverb chip, but a full-blown 24-bit digital
eects processor with 16 great-sounding
reverbs, choruses, angers and delays.
This tasty collection of eects is a musthave for any guitarist and includes room,
stage, concert and cathedral reverbs,
slap-back and medium echoes, two long
delays, plus slow and fast modulation
eects — all right at your ngertips.
Handmade Speakers
It takes a special speaker to
handle all this incredible technology,
tube-like tone and brutal output
power. That’s why we t each VIRTUBE
combo with handmade, heavy-duty
BUGERA Vintage Guitar speakers.
These babies were custom-designed and
handcrafted specically for the VIRTUBE
Series, and are ideally suited for classic
sound reproduction.
Get Connected
Whether you’re recording or just
jamming on your latest ri, you need the
right connections — VIRTUBE really has
you covered. The PHONES/LINE OUT B
jack is much more than just a place for
your headphones to call home. As the
name implies, this jack can also be used
to send your guitar signal, with speaker
simulation, to another amp or mixer.*
When the PHONES/ LINE OUT B jack is in
use, the internal loudspeaker is muted,
allowing you to crank your guitar into the
wee morning hours, without bothering
the neighbors.
If you’d like to play along with
previously recorded tracks, just plug
the output of your CD/Tape/mp3 deck
into the CD IN/LINE OUT A jack. This jack
also serves a second purpose, providing
yet another Line Out, this time without
speaker simulation.*
* Note: Use a standard ¼" TS cable to connect this
line-level signal to the destination device. If a hum is
detected, or the cable run is more than a few feet, you
may get better results using a Direct Injection box, like
our DI100 or DI20.
