Friedman aficionados searching for the ultimate grab-and-go guitar rig will positively flip for the IR-X. It delivers killer Friedman tone — no amp required.Two channels of tube-infused tone The IR-X includes two fully independent, footswitchable channels. Channel one ranges from squeaky-clean British-voiced chime to Plexi-style crunch. Channel two yields Friedman's trademark high-gain tone, chock-full of percussive punch, note articulation, and searing sustain. Best of all, the IR-X isn't an emulation or a starved-plate "tube" amplifier — it's a genuine high-voltage, 12AX7-loaded tube preamp. The guitarists here at Sweetwater concur: When you plug into the IR-X, you'll experience the same harmonic-rich tone, expressive touch response, and complex gain characteristics you'd get from a full-sized Friedman tube amplifier.All the sound-shaping controls you need No matter how you want to sculpt your tone, the Friedman IR-X is willing to oblige you. Each of its two channels includes a 3-band EQ, Volume and Gain controls, and a footswitchable boost. The clean channel boasts a 3-way Bright voicing switch and the dirty channel features a 2-way Tight voicing switch. Got pedals? Who doesn't! That's why the IR-X includes a bypassable effects loop.Power amp simulation and IR loader While you can plug the IR-X into a power amp and guitar cabinet, this stompbox-style preamp also includes a power amp simulation with tweakable Presence and Thump parameters and a full-featured IR loader for sending your signal straight to the board. You can use the 12 Friedman cabinet IRs that come free with the IR-X, or you can use your own custom IRs. Selecting an IR is as easy as flipping the top-panel 3-way toggle switch or loading a custom file via the IR-X's editing software.Friedman IR-X Dual Tube Preamp and DI Features: A feature-laden guitar preamp that fits on your pedalboard 2 high-voltage 12AX7 tubes deliver the harmonic richness and touch response of a full-sized Friedman amp Channel 1 ranges from squeaky-clean British-voiced chime to Plexi-style crunch Channel 2 yields a high-gain tone that's chock-full of percussive punch, note articulation, and searing sustain Per-channel 3-band EQ, Volume and Gain controls, and footswitchable boost Bright and Tight voicing switches provide added sonic flexibility Bypassable effects loop makes integrating your pedalboard simple Power amp simulation with Presence and Thump parameters IR loader includes 12 free Friedman cabinet IRs, or you can load your own custom files MIDI programmable with up to 128 presets for integration with pro-level rigs; USB MIDI for DAW integration 3 multifunction footswitches make real-time operation a breeze TRS balanced output; headphone output SpecificationDetail Pedal Type Tube Preamp Analog/Digital Analog (preamp), Digital (simulation) Channels 2 EQ 2 x 3-band EQ, Bright Switch, Tight Switch Presets 128 User Presets Impulse Response 12 x Friedman Cabinet IRs, 3rd Party IR Support Distortion/Overdrive Overdrive Tubes 2 x 12AX7 Inputs 1 x 1/4" Outputs 1 x 1/4" TRS Effects Loop Yes MIDI I/O 5-pin DIN (In), USB USB 1 x Type B (MIDI, updates, remote programming) Headphones 1 x 1/8" Software IR-X Software Editor Power Source 9-12V DC 800mA power supply (included) Height 2.3" Width 6.5" Depth 5.5" Weight 1.5 lbs.
