Information
To go further...
- Dynamic Response Modeling: Amps equipped with Tube Logic technology simulate the dynamic response of tube amps, including how they react to the guitarist's playing dynamics and the gradual saturation of the signal when pushed at high volume.
- Tube Behavior Simulation: This technology models the complex behavior of vacuum tubes, such as harmonic distortion, natural compression, and how tube amps respond to speaker loading.
- Improved reliability and maintenance: Unlike traditional tube amps, amps using Tube Logic technology do not need regular maintenance (such as replacing tubes) and are generally more robust and less prone to breakdowns .
- Sound flexibility: Amplifiers with Tube Logic often offer a wide range of sounds, from clean, crystalline sounds to rich, warm saturations, while retaining the response and dynamics of tube amps.
