Blackstar Amplification HT-5C El Manual Del Propietario página 8

Features
The HT-5 is the ultimate studio and practice amp, packing all the great tone and
innovative features of the award-winning HT valve pedals into a two channel,
footswitchable valve amp format. The patented ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) circuit
gives you infinite adjustment over the characteristics of the tone control network
and takes you from the USA to the UK and anywhere in between. So now you can
effectively design your own tone and finally find 'the sound in your head'.
In making the HT-5 ideally suited to home and studio use, the aim was to develop
a valve amp which sounded full and toneful even at the lowest volume level. With
this in mind the Blackstar design team designed a brand new valve power amplifier
topology. The HT-5 power amplifier is a low powered push-pull design which
produces the crunch and break-up characteristics of a traditional 100W output
stage but at a much lower volume. This is achieved by the use of a 12BH7 dual
triode in push-pull configuration producing 5 Watts output, which is rich in valve
harmonics and compression.
The HT-5 also has a fully specified stereo speaker emulated output which further
enhances the studio credentials and allows any guitarist to get amazing valve
tone straight to tape or disk, or through headphones. It also features the unique
4x12/1x12 voicing switch allowing you to change the tonal characteristics of the
emulated signal between two emulated cabinet types.
The stereo speaker emulated output can be used at the same time as the internal
speaker/extension cab, providing headphone free monitoring or the choice to blend
a mic'd speaker and emulated signal together for unrivalled usability when recording
at home or in the studio. In addition the speaker output can be turned off for 'silent'
practice or recording.
Add to this an effects loop with switchable level, 16Ω and 8Ω speaker outputs
which allow you to run the amp into an external speaker cabinet of your choice, a
stereo MP3/Line in allowing you to jam along to your favourite tracks and you have
everything you need for recording or practising.
