Next Level Amplification
Be ready for everything. The B|Amp is a smart amplifier. It features a unique signal path which allows for complete control over all of the parameters that help you get the bass sound that’s perfect for you and ideal for where you’re playing. No other bass amplifier on the market can manage both the speaker, amplifier, and the overall system like the Bergantino B|Amp can. There is an excess of features that make the B|Amp stand out. First of all, the B|Amp uses a embedded DSP system to control the amplification stage. After this you will be able to control a 4-Band EQ, program filters, utilise the variable-ratio compressor, tune, and then push the signal through the on-board multi-effects unit. It all adds up to a professional and powerful amplification set up that is perfect for any stage, studio, or style.
Fully Customisable
Always be at the cutting edge. The B|Amp is fitted with a USB port meaning you can update and customise the on-board computing to suit your needs. Upgrade the software and expand the system architecture – the B|Amp will always be performing at its best. This level of software support also means that you can update and change custom speaker profiles. Load the profiles in quickly and efficiently and always be ready for whatever the gig throws at you.
Deep Tone Shaping
Filters, EQ’s, and effects. The performative edge of the professional bassist. On-board the B|Amp’s powerful computer there are enough parameters for you to get the perfect tone. The multifunction tone controls offer up a powerful and accurate 4-Band EQ that is perfect for sculpting your ideal tone or from attenuating a venue’s troublesome frequencies. With a +/- 9Db variable on Bass, Lo-Mid, Hi-Mid, Treble settings, you can easily craft your tone to perfection.
The programmable filters offer further tone craft. The Bright switch adds an edge to your sound in 1Db increments up to +12Db, the high pass filter adds bite and the feed back filter helps prevent noise from interfering from your performances. You can even use the overdrive and distortion effects to really dial in the perfect tone.
