Introduction
Welcome!
Thank you for purchasing the VOX Valvetronix Pro VTX150 Neodymium
modeling guitar amplifier.
To help you get the most out of your new amplifier, please read this manual
carefully.
Get ready to enjoy amazing guitar tones from your new VTX150 Neodymium.
Main features
• This amp uses the VOX Valve Reactor power amp circuit featuring the EL84
(6BQ5) vacuum tube that amps such as the VOX AC30 use as their power tube,
generating real tube amp sounds that reproduces the feel and tone of the
original amplifier.
• Sophisticated modeling technology is used to provide forty-four different amp
models.
• Twenty-five high-quality effects are built-in. You can use up to four effects
including noise reduction simultaneously (or up to five effects if you use
“multiple effects”).
• You can create a sound using the desired amp and effect, and save it in the
memory as one of eight programs (two banks x four channels). Programs can
be switched while you perform, either from the top panel or from a foot switch
connected to the rear panel (Channel Select mode). For each amp model, three
preset programs—Basic, Effect and Song—are provided, giving you a total of
132 programs (Preset mode). The song programs reproduce the tones of classic
hits played by famous guitarists.
• Manual mode lets you use the VTX150 Neodymium as a conventional guitar
amp. The physical positions of the actual knobs will be applied to the sound.
• By connecting an optional (separately sold) VC-12SV foot controller or VFS5
foot switch, you can use your foot to switch programs, turn effects on/off, or
use tap tempo to set the delay time or modulation speed. If a VC-12SV foot
controller is connected, you’ll be able to save and access a total of 16 programs,
as well as control a wah pedal or volume pedal, further expanding your live
performance possibilities.
• The power level control lets you adjust the output wattage of the power amp.
• An extension speaker output jack is provided. By connecting your favorite
guitar speaker cabinet (150W 8 ohms), you can obtain up to 300W of output
power.
