Features
Since our launch in 2007, Blackstar has led the way in the innovation of guitar
amplification. The Dept.10 AMPED 3 represents the culmination of years of technical
research and development. AMPED 3 has an intuitive control set like a traditional
amp, but the versatility of programmability and Pro Digital Technology.
AMPED 3 is a 100W, no compromise floorboard amp capable of delivering the tone
and feel of traditional valve amps. The six unique preamp voices provide a vast
range of sounds and characters, from jangly cleans, to soaring leads and in-your-
face rhythm tones. Combined with a built-in boost pedal and two studio quality
reverb options, AMPED 3 gives you the freedom to endlessly shape and refine your
tone. Save and recall your favourite sounds simply and easily with the press of a
footswitch, courtesy of the user programmable amplifier patches. But it doesn't end
there; MIDI control, 9V pedal power outputs and a fully featured FX loop make your
AMPED 3 the ever-expandable hub for your pedalboard.
Via the Response control, AMPED 3 offers three distinctly different power valve
responses. The power valve responses (EL84, EL34, 6L6) deliver the response,
dynamics, sag and break up characteristics of their analogue counterparts. The
three responses can be delivered at 100W of power at either 8 or 16 Ohms,
switchable down to 20W or 1W, in a compact package that fits in your gig bag.
CabRig is Blackstar's next-generation DSP speaker simulator and creates a
fundamental shift in the accessibility of professional recording and performing.
CabRig awards musicians the ability to access previously unattainable technology,
that has long been reserved for professional sound engineers and producers.
The CabRig outputs enable you to get the sound in your head from any speaker
including headphones, studio monitors and front of house. AMPED 3 can also be
used as an audio interface, recording the same tones you use live straight into your
computer via USB-C.
