Three preamp voices and three power-amp responses make it easy to craft your own tones; and the built-in, three-preset Cab Rig allows you to load up your preferred impulse responses, which can be sent over USB, a balanced XLR output, or the 1/4" headphone output. Tap-tempo and an internal tuner ensure your sound is always on point, and with onboard MIDI I/O you can control all parameters, ensuring everything you need for your next studio session or awe-inspiring live performance is right at your fingertips.

- Two 1/4" speaker outputs, one for 8 ohms and one for 16 ohms
