SUPER FLAT
An original amp featuring a wide-range frequency response.
This amp type provides faithful reproduction of the connected bass’s own sound.
This is a great type for all kinds of connected instrument.
This produces a mild tone with a fat midrange, providing a sound that is per-
fect for fretless basses, including fretless electric and wood acoustic basses.
FLIP TOP
Models the Ampeg B-15 (1 x 15”). This amp provided the underpinning for many of the
most famous Motown hits.
It features a fat sound, while the amp’s compact cabinet produces a distinct contour.
Offers more nuances of your picking expression.
B MAN
Models the Fender Bassman 100 (4 x 12”).
This amp has been a favorite since the inception of electric basses. It features the sonic char-
acteristics of tube amps, whereby increasing the distortion slightly yields a fatter sound.
Offers a tone with boosted midrange fatness.
T.E
Models the Trace Elliot AH600SMX + 1048 (4 x 10”) + 1518 (1 x 15”). This amp was used
widely by rock bands in the 1980s. Its wide range, clear attack, and other features make it a
great amp for all kinds of performance situations.
Offers more attack.
BASS 360
Models the acoustic 360 (1 x 18”).
This amp was used in the ’70s not only by jazz bassists, but by funk and hard rock players
as well. The tone features a warm low end with a midrange that maintains a clear contour,
even with finger picking.
Offers more nuances of your picking expression.
SESSION
Models the SWR SM-400 + Goliath (4 x 10”) + Big Ben (1 x 18”). This tweeter-equipped amp
is representative of the “L.A. Sound” of the ’80s. It features a wide-range tone that balances
presence in the low end with a clear, open sound.
Offers a tight tone with a cut midrange.
CONCERT 810
Models the Ampeg SVT + 810E (8 x 10”).
This amp typifies the rock sound that relied heavily on combinations of high-output tube
amp sections and large-sized cabinets.
The characteristic sound is one of overwhelming low-frequency sound pressure.
Offers extra heavy bottom sound.
OCTAVE BASS
This original amp type creates sounds one octave below the input sounds and layers them
together to create a fatter bass sound.
* This function may not work properly when inputting chords; for example, sounds may not
play, or they may be played at incorrect pitches. Always input a single note.
This produces a more powerful, edgy octave sound.
