Features of the AD50VT2-XL include:
Eleven amp sounds. Sophisticated
modelling technology is used to provide eleven different amps,
including classic vintage amps of the past, costly, modern high-end
amps and high-gain hybrids, all accessible at the turn of a knob. These
new models include Glass, modelled on the Clean channel of a
collectable 100-Watt head named the Overdrive Special; Funked, modeled
on a classic American black-faced 2x12 combo; Buzzsaw, inspired by the
British-made 50-Watt head that created the sounds of ‘70s hard rock and
metal; Crunched, based on a very rare modded VOX AC30/6TBX Top Boost
combo, adding new hot-rodded gain levels and EQ; Thrashed, modelled on
a 1983, all tube, single channel, master volume 100-Watt head; Raged,
based on the high gain channel of a modern, all-tube 100 Watter, with
boosted bass and mid frequencies and even more gain; Modern, a still
higher gain modification to the “Modern High Gain” channel, with
scooped EQ; Fluid, the UK Modern setting with maximum gain and
mid-range EQ, modified to emphasize a vocal-like tone for legato-style
playing; Molten, based on VOX’s US Hi-Gain model but capable of even
more powerful, heavily saturated sounds, with an Octave effect mixed
into the preset; Black, a version of the UK Modern mutated to Class A,
rather than Class AB; and Damaged, rooted in VOX’s US Hi-Gain model
with more gain and a completely re-voiced and modified EQ to be thicker
and darker.
Eleven high-quality effects are built
in, including compressor, delay, reverb, compressor & chorus,
compressor & phaser, chorus & delay, chorus & reverb,
flanger & reverb, tremolo & reverb, and rotary & reverb,
plus Noise Reduction. New for the XL series is an Octave effect for
massive lead tones. Effect parameters are fully adjustable and a Tap
button makes it easy to set your delay time or modulation speed.
Store amp and effect settings.
Store your favourite amp and effect settings as a program, containing
two different settings (CH1 and CH2). Switch between these settings
from the top panel, or by using the optional VFS2 foot switch connected
to the rear panel. In addition, there is a preset program for each amp
type.
Manual mode. In Manual mode the sound you hear reflects the
physical settings of the knobs. You’re in control. Connect an optional VFS2 dual foot switch (sold
separately) to switch programs or bypass effects. A power level control
(not available on AD15VT-XL) adjusts the output wattage of the power
amp. This means that even when the master volume is turned up all the
way to drive the Valve Reactor power amp, you can adjust the volume
without losing any tone.
