    I would like to thank all of you who have made the V-AMPIRE/ V-AMP PRO/V-AMP 2 possible. You have all made your own personal contributions, from the developers to the many other employees at this company, and to you, the BEHRINGER user.

  • Page 5: Introduction

    V-AMP 2. It’s an allrounder with so many features that you hardly need any other equipment. The V-AMP PRO is the “big brother” of the V-AMP 2. Besides the V-AMP 2 features, the PRO version offers digital output signals and you can even select the output format. External synchronization of your V-AMP PRO is possible via wordclock.
  • Page 6 V-AMPIRE/V-AMP PRO/V-AMP 2 To select the simulation models 17 - 32 (V-AMP PRO/ V-AMP 2: gray, V-AMPIRE: white), press down the TAP key while making your selection by turning the AMPS control. The LED “17 - 32” in the bottom left-hand corner of the DISPLAY indicates that one of the simulation models 17 - 32 has been selected.

    Press the LINE IN key to route the signal applied at the RETURN/LINE IN to the V-AMP PRO. This function is useful, for example, to monitor a “dry” guitar signal with the V-AMP PRO before adding any effects.

    V-AMP PRO. Figure 2.4 of the view sheet shows how to connect the V-AMP PRO to the digital input of a PC in a recording application. Possible digital inputs on the PC are balanced AES/EBU or coax- type S/PDIF inputs. When the V-AMP PRO’s digital output is set to 44.1, 48 or 96 kHz, the PC has to synchronize with the...

    2.3. Press the LINE INPUT switch if you want to monitor the recorded signal via the V-AMP PRO. We recommend to use modes S1 or L1. Mode S2 is an alternative if you want to adjust the effect ratio on the mixing console.

    Live 3 (L3) If you want to go the safe way, we recommend to split up the input signal with a high-quality active DI-box, e.g. the BEHRINGER GI100. To do this, connect the guitar to the GI100 input, the direct link to the input of your V-AMP 2 and the XLR output to the recording device.

    The 32 simulation models can make work in a home recording studio very much easier because it isn’t necessary to mike up the guitar amp. With the V-AMPIRE/V-AMP PRO/V-AMP 2 it is child’s play for you to choose one of the legendary guitar amps, be it for Brit Pop, Blues, Heavy Metal or whatever.

    6.2.1 Reverb and delay algorithms REVERB: Reverb is still the most important effect for mixing or live performance. That’s why we at BEHRINGER make a point of giving you as many as nine different reverb programs so that you can use the most suitable reverb program for any situation.

    The fuse holder at the AC power connector has 3 triangular markings (V-AMPIRE/V-AMP PRO only). Two of these three triangles are aligned with one another. The unit is set to the voltage shown next to these markings and can be switched over by turning the fuse holder by 180°.
