Blackstar BEAMSOLO Overview

From Manufacturer

Capture your ideas whenever creativity strikes with the pocket-sized BEAM SOLO from Blackstar, a portable guitar and headphone amplifier loaded with over eight amps, 35 FX, 24 cabinet and mic combos, and nine room environments. With the unique, dynamic Light Beam display and intuitive SpeedDial control, you can easily shift through FX, adjust the patented ISF tone control, and more.

The BEAM SOLO connects directly to your guitar with the fixed and adjustable 1/4" plug. With In The Room CabRig technology built in, the BEAM SOLO makes your headphone experience far more immersive, simulating the sound of a real amp in a real physical space. XpressFX provides loads of quality FX to slap onto your signal, all easily accessed using the SpeedDial. The 3.5mm TRRS jack allows you to either connect standard headphones or a headset with mic attachment, allowing you to use the integrated USB-C multichannel audio interface to record both guitar and vocal ideas directly to your DAW. You can also engage in Bluetooth connections to stream your favorite media to your BEAM SOLO for practice. The BEAM SOLO provides up to six hours of battery life and can be charged or powered via USB-C. The BEAM SOLO includes a USB-C charging/data cable.

CabRig Technology
The BEAM SOLO features an advanced DSP speaker simulator that reproduces the sound and feel of a miked guitar cab in incredible detail. This includes In The Room technology, which creates the experience of standing next to an amp while you play, rather than the more studio focused tones of traditionally captured IRs.
XpressFX Control
XpressFX is a smart tracking control that adjusts multiple effects parameters simultaneously, giving you a fast, intuitive way to bring the sound in your head to life. XpressFX allows you to adjust the intensity of effects instantly using the SpeedDial, giving you smooth, responsive control over your sound.
Record Guitar and Vocals Together
Unlike most portable guitar and headphone amps, the BEAM SOLO sports the ability to record vocals along with instruments thanks to the onboard 3.5mm TRRS headset input/output, letting you plug in a headset with a mic attachment to record your song ideas easily and quickly to your favorite device. With built-in audio-interface capacity via USB-C and the integrated FX, you can use the BEAM SOLO as a convenient all-in-one music scratch pad.
