Vypyr® Pro
Modeling Amplifier
Congratulations on the purchase of the most advanced modeling amplifier to date! Peavey® introduces its newest member of the VYPYR Series, the VYPYR PRO 100. As the name implies, the VYPYR PRO is an amp featuring professional-grade tone and features, in a unique and intuitive layout. Because of the advanced dual processor design, the VYPYR Pro can run up to four amplifier models in parallel. Using the VYPYR Pro’s unique architecture, the VYPYR is capable of designing a variety of signal path combinations. Four module bays each with their own distinct LCD can be assigned to an amplifier, effect, stomp box, or in the first position an instrument model.
The modules can be assigned in any order, allowing the user the ability to create the exact rig they desire, even if they desire to run two or up to four amplifiers in parallel. With up to 5 parameters to precisely control effects, multiple delay types and advanced features such as MSDI (microphone simulated direct interface), direct output, effects loop, and MIDI control allow the professional player to create the rig of their dreams inside a single combo amplifier.
The VYPYR Pro continues the tradition of appropriate technology using 4 stages of patented TransTube® analog gain to create the most realistic tube sounding distortion in any modeling amplifier. By using analog distortion, the VYPYR Pro’s digital processor has the amazing ability to offer almost limitless combinations of additional stompboxes, “rack” effects, amplifiers and now even instrument models. The result is an overall better and cleaner tone.
Recording is a mainstay of the VYPYR Pro design. With the most advanced USB audio system in any VYPYR, the Pro was designed from the beginning for home recording. The VYPYR Pro also features an analog speaker and microphone simulated direct out for recording as well.
With 500 presets available and dozens of different models of effects, reverbs, delays and amplifiers, the VYPYR Pro is the most innovative and advanced modeling amplifier on the planet. Designed for the working musician by the musicians at Peavey Electronics, it is perhaps the most versatile amp ever created.
The perfect companion for the VYPYR Pro, Peavey’s updated Sanpera® Pro Footcontroller unlocks all the power of the VYPYR Pro. The Sanpera Pro’s dual expression pedals can be assigned to the default setting (volume on left, wah on right), and to 3 different stompbox or effects parameters! The Sanpera Pro’s expression pedals are also range definable. The footcontroller also features a boost switch, tap tempo, a chromatic tuner, and looper controls that allow users to generate multi-track loops.
AT-200™ integration is a key part of the VYPYR Pro design. The MIDI output allows the VYPYR Pro to communicate with Peavey’s revolutionary AT-200 guitar in order to change presets inside the guitar with one simple VYPYR Pro button press (requires an AT-200 guitar loaded with one of the optional feature packs, available at www.autotuneforguitar.com)

Plug in your instrument here.
2Model Bay Displays
In “Mode Select” mode displays the available model types (Instrument {model bay 1 only}, Amp, Stomp Box and Effects). In normal mode displays the selected models.
3Mode Select Button
Allows the user to switch into Mode Select mode. Holding the Mode Select Button down for 2 seconds changes the Model Select Knobs to Signal Chain Select Mode. In this mode, you can change the order that the models are in, simply by turning the knobs. This is particularly handy when you have forgotten to add a certain model in model bay 1. With Signal Chain Select Mode, you would then move the other 3 models to the right, leaving Model Bay 1 empty and ready for you to add the model you wish to add.
4Model Select Knobs
Allows user to scroll through Modules and Modes.
5Tap Tempo Control/Tuner Selector/Cancel
Tapping this button sets the delay time for the Delay effect. Holding this button down activates the tuner function. In most instances, this button can be used to cancel out of a menu.

17 AC Power Inlet
This is the receptacle for an IEC line cord, which provides AC power to the unit. Connect the line cord to this connector to provide power to the unit. Damage to the equipment may result if improper
line voltage is used. Never break off the ground pin on any equipment. It is provided for your safety. If the outlet used does not have a ground pin, a suitable grounding adapter should be used and the third wire should be grounded properly. To prevent the risk of shock or fire hazard, always make sure that the amplifier and all associated equipment is properly grounded.
NOTE: FOR UK ONLY
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: (1) The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal which is marked by the letter E, or by the Earth symbol, or coloured green or green and yellow. (2) The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N, or the colour black. (3) The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L, or the colour red.
To avoid the risk of electrical shock, do not place fingers or any other objects into empty tube sockets while power is being supplied to unit.
18Power Sponge
The Power Sponge allows the user to adjust the natural clipping or distortion of the power amp section of the amplifier. This feature allows the amplifier headroom to be raised or lowered, thus, allowing the amplifier to be “pushed” at a much lower volume. At a setting of 100%, the amp will have greater clean headroom; at 50%, the amp will begin to distort at the same volume. The maximum attenuation capability of this control can result in as low as 1% of the rated output power.
19MICROPHONE SIMULATED DIRECT INTERFACE - MSDI™
Peavey’s exclusive MSDI™ simulates the sound of a microphone placed approximately 8” from a loudspeaker cone, allowing the user to send an accurate, good quality signal to the mixing console without any acoustic spill from other instruments on stage. This is a non-powered output and safe for use with any mixing console. This output can also be used for recording.
20Speaker Engage/Defeat Switch
This effectively disconnects the speaker, and enables the user to monitor their playing using the signal from either the MSDI™ or USB outputs.
