Description

The incredible sound quality you'll experience with the VT20X is driven by VET (Virtual Elements Technology). Instead of simply imitating the final output of the original amplifier, VET dives deeper, modelling right down to the intricate details of components and circuits. This way, VET faithfully mirrors the distinctive features of the original amp in its most authentic form. Multi-stage tube amp The AD50VTis loud enough for full band use. The Celestion 70-80 12"speaker can offer traditional British clean or overdriven tones. Arear panel power amp level control allows you to reduce the output power of the AD50VTall the way from 50 watts to one watt.

Whether you choose to use the effects, use your own pedals, or process after recording using plug‑ins, this little amp works really well in the studio, particularly if you're prepared to use a mic, rather than go for the DI option — though the latter doesn't sound bad if you need to keep the levels down.The AD15VT follows a "chrome" theme, in fact, one magazine ad campaign from Vox used the theme, "Go Chrome or Go Home." Chrome plated Vox logos and a chrome plated steel grill highlighted this theme. The incredible sound quality you'll experience with the VT40X is driven by VET (Virtual Elements Technology). Instead of simply imitating the final output of the original amplifier, VET dives deeper, modelling right down to the intricate details of components and circuits. This way, VET faithfully mirrors the distinctive features of the original amp in its most authentic form. Multi-stage tube amp This hybrid physical modelling, valve and solid-state design, presented in a classic AC30-style format, aims to offer the best of all possible worlds. How far does it succeed? The AD15VTis not loud enough for gigging, but it is a very versatile practice amp. Thepower amp level control that allows you to reduce the output wattage of the power amp that is common to the AD30VT, AD50VT, and AD100VT is not included in the AD15VT.

The amp makes the right sounds at sensible levels, and it's adjustable enough to do some serious tone shaping without making life complicated. It has a rather less loose‑sounding bass end than the AD30VT that I still use, and I preferred its general tonality to that of the VT30 model, which I found sounded a hint 'unyielding'.The Tone Room editor/librarian software is designed for use with the VT20X and VT40X. Beyond conventional amp and effect editing, this software allows you to tweak parameters in such depth that it's akin to crafting your very own musical instrument. Once you've successfully transformed your ideal sound into reality, you can save up to three of your customised amps/effects within the amp. Besides Windows and Mac versions, Tone Room is also available for iOS, offering you the flexibility to edit on almost any device. Up to 20 true-to-life amp models Finally, there's the reverb, which is pretty limited in that you can't vary the decay time, but sounds absolutely right for use with a guitar amplifier. The Spring emulation is especially effective. All three variations have a hint of spring-like flutter, but on an electric guitar they sound quite authentic. Summing Up To the right of this area on the control panel is the modulation effects section, where Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo or Rotary effects can be chosen. These have Speed and Depth controls, with the option of controlling Speed via the external pedal, if connected. When the Rotary effect is being controlled in this way, the speed ramps up and down gradually, as it does with the real thing. The intricate modelling technology, a legacy of the Valvetronix series, provides an exhaustive range of varied amp sounds. With 11 amp models (extended to 20 types when using the editor/librarian software), you can recreate the sound of some of the most coveted tube amps amongst guitarists, encompassing elusive vintage amps and high-end boutique amps. Models of the newest high-gain amps are also incorporated, delivering the versatility you require for a spectrum of playing styles and genres. On-board effects

Everything about the Valvetronix is extremely intuitive. It utilises familiar guitar-amp controls (Gain, Volume, Treble, Middle, Bass, Presence and Master volume), augmented by a rotary Amp Type selector switch, plus dedicated effects sections that each have controls very similar to what you'd expect on a simple stomp box. The Vox Valvetronix series artfully marries state-of-the-art digital technology with timeless analogue circuitry, integrating authentic vacuum tubes into the structure. Models like VT20X and VT40X utilise a Valvetronix preamp within their multi-stage amplification circuit. This circuit faithfully mirrors the unique distortion, swift response, and tonal characteristics that are exclusive to classic tube amps and simply cannot be duplicated by digital technology in isolation. Analogue and digital in perfect harmony The Vox VT20X is not just another guitar amp. It's a comprehensive tool that offers guitarists a full palette of sounds and tones. From the clarity of high tones to the depth of lows, this amp ensures that every note you play resonates with precision and quality.

The Brit amp co revamps an old favourite

There are few surprises in the effects section, though the U-Vibe and Octave settings in the pedal section are rather unexpected. These work much like their pedal equivalents, so when using the Octave (octave divider) setting you need to play monophonically. U-Vibe is based on the Univibe pedal and sounds like a hybrid of phasing and modulated EQ -- perfect for those slow Hendrix numbers. Effects are pivotal in moulding your sound. The VT20X and VT40X offer four distortion and dynamics effects for placement before the amp stage, four spatial-type effects such as flanger and delay, and four reverbs, totalling to 12 in-built effects. Alongside Noise Reduction, you can employ up to four effects concurrently. Furthermore, each effect comes with multiple parameters, offering you the liberty to instantly achieve your desired sound. A handy tap switch is also included, facilitating easy setting of delay time or modulation speed. Up to 30 presets
