Description
The HT Venue line is famous for combining class-leading boutique cleans with modern high gain overdrives without compromise, all in a single gig and studio friendly unit. The HT Range gives you every clean and overdrive reference tone you need for any performance.
Separate tone networks for Clean & OD channels, plus the Patented ISF (Infinite Shape Feature), let you fine tune your tones. CabRig, Blackstar`s world-class DSP speaker simulator comes as standard, which allows you to choose between hundreds of different cabinet, mic, mic placement and room settings. These settings can be saved and stored into three presets which can be recalled directly from the amplifier. Switch into standby mode for ‘silent’ recording or silent stage use. Inside the chassis Blackstar have made more enhancements to MK III, upgraded components and an all-new customisable reverb make these the best HT Venue ever.
There’s beauty in the details too, we’ve introduced high quality mini toggle switches, premium covering and fret, plus a metal plate logo. Footswitchable modes and modern connectivity make these amps perfect for studio or stage.
Key Features
- ISF Control – Dial in a blend of American & British Amp Tones. The ISF control is continuously variable between all the traditional responses allowing you to effectively design your own sound.
- CabRig Simulator Technology – CabRig is the next-generation DSP speaker simulator that reproduces the sound and feel of a mic’d up guitar cab in incredible detail. CabRig’s new advanced algorithm can simulate a speaker cabinet and room with effectively zero latency, no phase mismatch and much more flexibility than an IR snapshot. Deep-dive using the accompanying software to capture the incredible tones via USB/XLR out or headphones.
