Main Features

• 30-watt output, high-performance, DSP guitar amp with built-in 25 cm (10-inch)
speaker.
• Offers nine different COSM amp types
Amps included:
JC CLEAN, ACOUSTIC, BLACK PANEL, BRITISH COMBO,
TWEED, CLASSIC STACK, METAL STACK, R-FIER STACK
and DYNA AMP
Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM) is Roland's innovative and powerful
sound modeling technology. COSM analyzes the many factors that make up the
original sound, such as the electrical and physical characteristics of the original,
and then produces a digital model that can reproduce the same sound.
• Channels can be switched between CLEAN and LEAD. Channel switching can be
done via optional footswitch.
• The CUBE-30X includes Roland's Power Squeezer function. This feature enables
you to reduce the maximum output from 30 watts to 2 watts at the press of a single
button. When switched on, Power Squeezer reproduces the distortion of a fully-
cranked power amp along with a great sound, regardless of the volume level, but
with a 2-watt output that is easy to handle in the home.
• A tuner function is also included. This feature allows you to tune your guitar
while the instrument is connected to the CUBE-30X.
• Includes easy-to-use, three-band equalizer (Bass/Middle/Treble).
• Onboard EFX section includes 4 types of digital effect, chorus, flanger, phaser and
tremolo; footswitch (optional) can be used to switch EFX on and off.
• Separate "Delay" and "Reverb" effects provided in addition to the EFX.
• Equipped with "RECORDING OUT jack" convenient for use in recording and for
use as headphone out.
• The unit is equipped with an external input jack, which is convenient for your
practice sessions. Use this to play along with sounds from CD players and MP3
players.
