the power to start recording a molten
magnum opus in no time!
Turn your home into a hit

Hook the V-AMP3 up to your computer

line inputs of UCA222, and switch its direct
monitoring function on. Then connect
the UCA222 USB cable to your computer.
You can monitor the signal with the
UCA222’s headphone jack. (This is also a
great way to jam along with the MP3’s on
your computer).
From there, the amazing energyXT2.5
DAW (digital audio workstation) makes it
easy to manipulate your audio and MIDI

or web-ready recordings. energyXT2.5
includes its own multi-FX processor,
built-in synthesizers and a drum machine,

or UMX series, or programmed in
step-write mode. To learn more about

Any classic you like
The V-AMP 3’s 32 amp models are
organized into four groups: CLEAN,
BLUES, METAL and ROCK. Just twist the
dedicated dial to plug into unbelievably
authentic simulations of the greatest
British and American tube amps from the
1950s to today. You even get models of
uncommon—yet renowned—boutique
tube amps! When you select an amp
model, a speaker cabinet model is
automatically selected. But if you’d prefer a
di erent model, just go to EDIT>CABINETS,
then use the BANK UP/DOWN buttons to
navigate through all 15 options.
Just like on an actual guitar amp,
you’ve got a three-band EQ, GAIN,
REVERB, VOLUME and MASTER VOLUME
dials. By holding the TAP button, the
TREBLE dial becomes a PRESENCE
control. This enables the adjustment
of a high-frequency  lter that can
add or remove a ”shimmer“ from the
V-AMP 3’s tone.
