Shape Your Tone With Eleven Amp Types

The IR-2 gives you a diverse palette of amps to sculpt your ideal tone. It includes emulations of classic guitar amps like the Fender ’65 Twin Reverb, Marshall ’59 Super Lead and VOX AC30TB. For bass, you get amps like the Ampeg SVT and Fender ’63 Precision Bass. Each amp type has familiar tone stack controls to shape your sound. Dial in anything from sparkling cleans to saturated overdrive.

Load Authentic Cabinets With Built-in IRs

In addition to the amp emulations, the IR-2 comes loaded with a curated set of 12 cabinet impulse responses featuring Celestion Digital IRs. You get selections of guitar cabinets like the Marshall 1960A, MESA/Boogie Recto 4×12 and Fender ’65 Twin. For bass, there’s the Ampeg SVT 8×10 and Hartke HyDrive 8×10.

Tweak Your Sound With Intuitive Controls

The IR-2 keeps things simple with hands-on controls to fine-tune your tone. It features familiar EQ knobs for bass, mid and treble just like an amp. You can add ambience with dedicated knobs for room, hall and plate reverb. Switch between two channels with the front panel button or an optional footswitch (sold separately). There’s also a built-in effects loop to integrate your favorite pedals.
