Recording your guitar or bass amplifier in silence has always been the purpose of the Torpedo
products, but with the Torpedo Reload Two Notes has striven to gather together all of the major
functions and products you may need in a recording room:

Hi-Z instrument DI so you can record you guitar’s signal directly;
The most transparent power attenuator and loadbox with multi-impedance input and
continuous volume setting, from a minimal attenuation to 0dB. Two Notes creates the RE-
ACT™
 technology;
re-amplifying interface with a special function to perfectly adjust the level sent from the
audio interface to the amplifier. Two notes creates the REPLAY™ and MATCH™ functions.

Record your guitar using the DI, send the signal back to your amp using REPLAY™, drive your
amplifier the way it should be driven and lower the level or simply make it silent with RE-ACT™,
record the signal from the load box, and even use your own microphones and cabinets for a 3rd take -
all simultaneously if needed!

This product has been thoroughly tested in professional studio and stage environments
and is the alternative many musicians have been waiting for to professionally capture the
sounds of their amplified instruments. The Torpedo Reload coupled with Torpedo Wall of
Sound will bring you the elusive sound of the greatest recording studios and producers,
anytime, anywhere.
