MATRIX™ 100 Manual
Foreword
Thank you for choosing a Hughes & Kettner
®
product. With the MATRIX™ 100, you now
own a unique guitar-driven sound system that
offers everything you need to have a blast at
rehearsals and on stage. We factored the wishes
and suggestions of many guitarists into the
design of the MATRIX™ 100, aiming to turn
up a modern guitar amp that would stand as a
benchmark DFX amp. We accomplished what
we set out to achieve. No comparable amp
comes close to matching the MATRIX™’s sound
quality, fl exibility, performance and handling
convenience.
Your MATRIX™ 100’s nerve center is the inno-
vative Autostore FX MATRIX™. For the fi rst time,
an amp in this class is able to store individual
effect settings separately for every channel. And
it does this automatically, without requiring
additional programming steps. Finally, an
ingenious function has arrived that makes the
DFX amp a true gigging rig!
The MATRIX™ 100 is equipped with a digital
multi FX processor offering popular effects
such as REVERB, DELAY, CHORUS, FLANGER
and TREMOLO in remarkably high quality. Four
channels, a Current Feedback power amp and
12" RockDriver Ultra speakers, developed in a
joint effort with Celestion
®
, deliver the goods
– soul-stirring tone. When you power up and
plug in, you’ll hear 20 years of Hughes &
Kettner
®
amp engineering experience refl ected
in that tone.
Whether you opted for the combo or the head,
rest assured that the MATRIX™ delivers the kind
of inspiring response that is sure to supercharge
your playing while practicing and performing
on the big stage. You wanted it all – powerful
and G-force sound pressure, crystal-clear clean
sounds, creamy CRUNCH and lead tones, fi re-
breathing WARP sounds, and authentic effects.
Now you got it, in a great, easily handled
gigging amp to boot.
Here’s wishing you tons of fun with your new
MATRIX™ 100!
