Features
In the seven years since its launch, Blackstar has led the way in the innovation of
guitar amplification. ID:Core represents the culmination of more than seven years
technical Research and Development. These amps have an intuitive control set like
a traditional amp, but have the versatility of programmability. The unique controls
allow you, the guitarist, to custom design your own sound.
The Voice control has six different settings – Clean Warm, Clean Bright, Crunch,
Super Crunch, OD 1, OD 2. When used together with Blackstar's patented ISF
control you can get the exact tone you're thinking of.
The effects section delivers studio quality Super Wide Stereo modulation, delay and
reverb effects simultaneously that you can store with your sound.
Deep editing and storing of patches is simple using the Blackstar INSIDER software.
Patches can be shared, uploaded and downloaded via the online community. The
USB connector also allows you to record from your amp directly to your computer.
An emulated output and MP3/line input complete the package.
By using the unique Voice control and the patented ISF, ID:Core Series amplifiers
allow unparalleled flexibility and ease of use, enabling you to design the sound in
your head and deliver it at home, in the studio or in rehearsal.
