Vypyr® Pro
Modeling Amplifier
Congratulations on the purchase of the most advanced modeling amplier 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 amplier 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 amplier, eect, stomp box, or in the rst position an instrument model.
e 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 ampliers in parallel. With up to 5 parameters to precisely control eects, multiple delay types and advanced features such as
MSDI (microphone simulated direct interface), direct output, eects loop, and MIDI control allow the professional player to create the rig
of their dreams inside a single combo amplier.
e 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 amplier. By using analog distortion, the VYPYR Pro’s digital processor has the amazing
ability to oer almost limitless combinations of additional stompboxes, “rack” eects, ampliers and now even instrument models. e
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. e VYPYR Pro also features an analog speaker and microphone simulated direct out for recording as
well.
With 500 presets available and dozens of dierent models of eects, reverbs, delays and ampliers, the VYPYR Pro is the most innovative
and advanced modeling amplier on the planet. Designed for the working musician by the musicians at Peavey Electronics, it is perhaps
the most versatile amp ever created.
e perfect companion for the VYPYR Pro, Peavey’s updated Sanpera® Pro Footcontroller unlocks all the power of the VYPYR Pro. e
Sanpera Pro’s dual expression pedals can be assigned to the default setting (volume on le, wah on right), and to 3 dierent stompbox or
eects parameters! e Sanpera Pro’s expression pedals are also range denable. e 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. e 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)

Power Sponge
e Power Sponge allows the user to adjust the natural clipping or distortion of the power amp section of
the amplier. is feature allows the amplier headroom to be raised or lowered, thus, allowing the amplier 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. e maximum attenuation capability of
this control can result in as low as 1% of the rated output power.

Tips for Creating & Editing Presets
•e dierent types of models are color coded. Amps are red, Instruments (M1 bay only) are yellow, stomp
boxes are orange and eects are blue.
•If there is already a model present, you can change either the type of currently chosen model or you can
change the overall type of model. For instance, if there is already an amp present, to change the type of amp
model, simply turn the dial to select a dierent amp and press the model encoder. To change the type of model,
push and release the MODE SELECT button, which changes the 4 model screens to MODEL TYPE SELECT
MODE.
•If there isn’t a model type present, there is no need to press the MODE SELECT button. Simply turning the
model encoder will automatically change the model screens to MODEL TYPE SELECT MODE.
•If a change in the order of the models is desired, press and hold the MODE SELECT button. e master LCD
screen will read “MODEL 1-4 SWAP MODEL POSITIONS”. In this mode, turning any of the 4 model encoders
will move that model back and forth within the preset order. For example, if there are 3 models chosen and the
M4 position is empty and you wish to add a new eect at the beginning of the signal chain, such as a compressor,
you would press and hold the MODEL SELECT button and use the 4th model bay’s encoder to move the empty
bay over to bay 1.
NOTE: ANY TIME A STOMPBOX OR AMP IS PRESENT, IT REPRESENTS A NEW PARALLEL SIGNAL
CHAIN. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE MODEL BAYS ARE STOMPBOX>AMP>STOMPBOX>AMP, AND THE
AMP IN BAY 2 IS BYPASSED, THEN YOU WILL NOT HEAR THE STOMPBOX IN BAY 1 BECAUSE THE
AMP THAT IT FEEDS IS TURNED OFF. SOME TRIAL AND ERROR WILL BE NECESSARY TO GET THE
HANG OF HOW THE SIGNAL CHAIN WORKS IN THE VYPYR PRO.
•To edit each model’s parameters, including amp models, press and release the cooresponding model’s encoder
(NOTE: pressing and holding the model encoders will bypass that model. is is shown on the model screen as
lower case letters). When the model is chosen, the corresponding screen is brighter, and the parameter encoders
can be turned to change the desired parameters. Anytime a parameter is tweaked, the master LCD screen will
show the name of the parameter as well as the value.
•VERY IMPORTANT. With the Vypyr, delay and reverb are always available, they do not need to be chosen as
a stomp or eect model as is the case with other modeling amps. To change the settings to the delay and reverb,
including turning them o, press and release the DEL/REV EDIT button which is righ next to the TAP TEMPO
button. is will change the mode of the amp to QUICK EDIT DELAY/REVERB mode. In this mode, the 5
parameter encoder’s functions change from the top line of text to the bottom line of text. Turning the parameter encoders will change the Delay Level, Time Shi (delay times are set using the tap tempo button), Delay
Feedback, Reverb Room Size and Reverb Level. To turn o the delay or reverb, simply adjust the Delay Level or
Reverb Level down to 0.
VYPYR® Main Edit Menu
•To enter main menu, press inner preset button (2)
•Use outer bank wheel (1) to scroll through the following functions (these functions are described in
detail later in this owner’s manual):
•Load Preset
•Save Preset
•Rename Preset—Give an epic name to your creation.
•Rename Bank—Rename a group of presets, for instance a song name.
•Default Pedals—Assigns the wah and volume to the le or right on the Sanpera Pro, whatever
you prefer.
•Assign Pedals—Assign functions for the expression pedals on the optional Sanpera Pro footcon-
troller. In this menu you use the Main Inner and Outer encoders to edit, using the outer wheel to select
functions and the inner knob to assign values. e Model Bay encoders can also be used. To edit
using the Model Bay encoders, press the encoder that corresponds to the function you wish to edit, then
turn the encoder to set the value. e editable functions are as follows:
•Parameter select: e default is set to NOTHING. Scrolling this encoder you would
select what parameter to adjust with the expression pedal.
•Up Value: Select the value you want the parameter to be when the toe of the expression
pedal is UP.
•Down Value: Select the value you want the parameter to be when the toe of the expression pedal
is DOWN.
•Pedal/Parameter#: Each pedal can control up to 3 parameters, which can be almost any
thing in the preset. e parameter# is displayed as L PED A, L PED B, L PED C, R PED A,
R PED B and R PED C.
NOTE: A good example of how this works would be by using the delay. Set the Pedal/Parameter# setting
to L PED A, the Parameter Select to DELAY LEVEL, the Up Value to 0 and the Down Value to 90.
en press the INNER KNOB to save the setting. Now, when you play, rock the LEFT pedal back and
forth. You should hear the delay setting change per your adjustments. is method can be used to adjust
almost anything in the preset and the WYSIWYG knobs will display the changes in real time if applicable.
•Enable/Disable Midi Out: Enabling MIDI Out will allow the amp to send MIDI Program messages to
a specied MIDI Out Channel. By selecting this function, each preset can send a specic MIDI Program
message out to an external device. By using the Peavey AT- 200 guitar with an optional Feature Pack from
Antares, you can open up an almost limitless possibility of combinations of instruments and ampliers!
For more information on Feature Packs for the AT-200, please refer to www.autotuneforguitar.com.
•Midi Out Channel—Selects which MIDI channel the preset messages are sent to.
•Restore Preset—Restores presets to factory settings while leaving items in the Main Edit Menu un
changed.
•Factory Reset—Restores everything to factory settings, including items in the Main Edit Menu.
•Disable/Enable Demo—Toggles on/o the attract mode Light Show and allows for banks A-B to be
over-written.
•Delay Trails On/O—Toggles delay trails on/o. When trails are turned o, the delay trails will cut o
when changing presets.
•Reverb Trails OnO—Works in a similar fashion to the Delay trails, only with the Reverb.
•Show Version—Displays soware version.
Deep Edit Menu
Activate the Deep Edit Menu by pressing and holding the Delay/Reverb Edit button for 2 seconds. is menu
is actually a series of 4 Sub Menus, including Delay, Reverb, Input and Output menus. Pressing the corresponding Model encoder will activate the sub menu. In each menu, the Parameter Knobs are used to change settings.
In each menu the OUTER BANK WHEEL and INNER KNOB (except for the Reverb Menu) are also used for
various settings.
DELAY MENU
When the DELAY (Model 1) encoder is selected, the main LCD screen will display the Delay Type and Delay
Subdivision. e OUTER BANK WHEEL selects between Analog Delay, Digital Delay, Modulation Delay,
Multi-Tap Delay, Tape Delay and Tube Delay. e INNER KNOB selects between Quarter Note (default) and
Dotted Eighth Note. is corresponds to the delay setting in relation to what is set using the Tap Tempo Button.
Selecting Quarter Note will set the delay time to exactly what is tapped in. Selecting Dotted Eighth will set the
delay time to ¾ the tempo of what is tapped in. Use Dotted Eighth note when you want the same type of delay
used by David Gilmour or U2. To achieve this sound, you would play eighth notes in relation to the quarter
notes you have tapped in. With the Delay Level set at a high level, the delay will create a pleasing rhythmic pattern that will be immediately familiar to you!
• Parameter Knob Functions:
•P1—Delay Time Shi. Aer tapping in the desired tempo using the Tap Tempo button, use this encod er to “ne tune” the delay time to match the desired setting.
•P2—Delay Level. is encoder sets the volume of the delay in relation to the dry guitar signal.
•P3—Delay Feedback. is encoder sets the length of the Delay Feedback.
•P4—is encoder controls a dierent parameter depending on which delay is chosen.
• Analog Delay—Delay Tone
• Digital Delay—Delay Tone
• Modulation Delay—Modulation Rate
• Multi-Tap Delay—Tap 1 Echo Position
• Tape Delay—Delay Tone
• Tube Delay—Delay Tone
•P5—is encoder controls a dierent parameter depending on which delay is chosen.
• Analog Delay—N/A
• Digital Delay— N/A
• Modulation Delay—Modulation Depth
• Multi-Tap Delay—Tap 2 Echo Position
• Tape Delay—Tape Noise
• Tube Delay—Tube Drive
Deep Edit Menu cont.
REVERB MENU
When choosing the Reverb Menu, the main LCD screen will display the Reverb Type. ese include Cathedral,
Gated, Hall, Plate, Room, Spring and Tile.
• Parameter Knob Functions. Note: Since the Delay/Reverb edit mode uses the bottom row of text, the
Reverb Parameter knobs will go from right to le, just as they do in Delay/Reverb edit mode.
•P5—Reverb Level. Sets the volume of the Reverb in relation to the dry guitar signal.
•P4—Reverb Room Size. Adjusts the “size” of the virtual room creating the reverb sound.
•P3—is encoder is only active when Gated Reverb is chosen. In this mode, P3 controls the
Gated Hold Time, which adjusts how much time goes by before the reverb starts.
•P2—is encoder is only active when Gated Reverb is chosen. In this mode, P2 controls the
Gated reshold. e gated threshold sets the input level at which the reverb will turn on.
e reverb stays on as long as the input is above the threshold. When the input level falls
below the threshold, the reverb will remain on for the specied hold time and then turn o.
•P1—is encoder is not used for the Reverb menu.
INPUT MENU
When selecting the Input menu, the main LCD screen will display the Bright control setting as well as the Noise
Gate Type. e OUTER BANK WHEEL toggles between Bright on/o, while the INNER KNOB selects between the Noise Gate Types, which include Global Input Gate, Custom Input Gate & Custom Output Gate.
• Global Input Gate—is gate should be used when a certain instrument is used a lot of the time which
is causing noise, as in the case of most single coil equipped instruments. Presets that use the Global
Input Gate will share the same settings. If you change the settings for the Global Input Gate on any of the
presets that use it, the settings will also change for all the other presets that use this gate.
• Custom Input Gate—is gate operates exactly like the Global Input Gate, however the settings are
specic to each preset that uses it.
• Custom Output Gate—is gate’s settings are specic to each preset that uses it and should be used
when high gain amplier models are used. High gain ampliers intrinsically have a higher noise oor
than do clean ampliers.
• Parameter Knob Functions:
•P1—Volume Pedal Insert. is adjusts where in the signal chain the Sanpera Pro’s volume pedal
is inserted. Select AT AMP OUTPUT if you want to use the volume pedal as a master volume,
adjusting the volume of the entire amplier. Select AT GUITAR INPUT if you want to use the
volume pedal in the same way you would use your guitar’s volume knob. is is the most com mon usage of this feature.
•P2—Wah Intensity—With the Vypyr Pro, even the Wah pedal’s intensity can be adjusted! You
could even use the other expression pedal to adjust the intensity, eectively giving you 2 dierent
sounding wah pedals for a given preset!
•P3—Noise Gate Input reshold. Controls the input sensitivity of the noise gate.
•P4— Noise Gate Output Decay. Controls the decay of the noise gate.
•P5— Noise Gate Output Attenuation. Controls the level of the noise reduction employed by the
noise gate. e more noise that is apparent in the sound, the higher this control must be set to
make it go away.
Deep Edit Menu cont.
OUTPUT MENU
When this menu is selected, the main LCD screen will display the status of the Boost feature, as well as the
MIDI program message to be sent via MIDI for that particular preset. Using the OUTER BANK WHEEL will
toggle between Boost on/o. e INNER KNOB controls what MIDI program# message is sent via MIDI.
•P1—Boost Level. No preset Boost level here on the Vypyr Pro, you can program it per preset! Here
you can set the boost for anything in between a 2.65dB and 9dB boost.
•P2—Looper Level. Purchasing the optional Sanpera Pro footcontroller enables you to use the onboard
multi-overdubbing Looper. Each time you add a loop, the level of that loop’s playback can be adjusted
here to anything between -18dB to +6.6dB.
•P3—Presence control. e Presence control can be set per preset on the Vypyr Pro! is controls the
high end damping factor of the power amp, adding high end to the overall signal.
•P4—Resonance control. e Resonance control operates in a similar fashion to the Presence control,
but instead of high end it controls low end. e Resonance control will add the low end thump you
desire when using high gain palm muting techniques.
•P5—Master Volume. is is an incredibly handy feature to have in a modeling amp. Frequently, vol ume levels between presets can be tricky to get exactly how you want them, since stage level can vary
so much in relation to practice level. Typically, the remedy for this would be to adjust the POST GAIN
control of the amplier model. However, this is not ideal because adjusting the POST GAIN control
also aects the sound of the amplier model, particularly in lower power models. By using this Master
Volume control, the volume level between presets can be adjusted without compromising the tone of
the amplier model!
NOTE: In Deep Edit Mode, the Tap Tempo cannot be used as the CANCEL button. To exit the Deep Edit
Menu, simply tap the Delay/Reverb Edit button.

Looper Function
e Sanpera Pro unlocks the Vypyr Pro’s looper, which features unlimited overdubs! ere’s so much you can do
with the looper, so give it a try and have fun.
To start a loop, press down on the REC/PLAY button and hold it. e recording starts and stops when you li
your foot o the button. is is far more accurate than starting the recording when you press down. e looper
lasts 30 seconds which is usually enough time for a phrase. When you are ready to end the loop recording, press
down on the switch. Again, the recording will stop and playback will immediately begin when you li UP on
the switch.
Now, you have choices! Either you can play along with your recorded phrase, stop the playback, or begin adding to it. Pressing STOP will end the playback, pressing REC/PLAY will start it again. If you want to add to the
phrase, you can just press REC/PLAY again to begin recording an overdub. NOTE: You are only recording to
the looper with the LED above the REC/PLAY button is lit RED. When that LED is lit green, then you in PLAYBACK mode and not recording anything. e LED above the STOP button indicates if there is a loop in memory. Holding down the STOP button will erase the loop so that you can start over.
With the Vypyr Pro’s looper, you can erase the last loop you created if you are unhappy with it. However, because of how the looper works, you must erase the last loop BEFORE it goes through an entire playback cycle.
In other words, if you record an overdub, then press the REC/PLAY button to end the recording and continue
playback, you have until the loop plays all the way through to erase the last loop. To do this, you must press the
REC/PLAY and STOP buttons at the same time. If the loop starts over, then it commits the last loop to memory
and it cannot be erased.
ere is no limit to the number of overdubs that you can add!
A key feature to use with the looper is the LOOPER VOLUME (page 19, OUTPUT MENU, P2). Each time you
record a loop, it will record it at the level specied in that preset. is is so you can plan ahead for a performance
situation and commit to the looper each part at the level you desire.
HAVE FUN!!
