The initial concept of this unique box germinated during the development of the Waza amp head, one of our high-end products. To fully test and refine the power supply voltage and the amplifier output circuit, the BOSS team designed a direct Loadbox with capacities far superior to those available on the market.. This innovative element worked so well that it became the development model of this new generation tool intended for owners of tube amps.. Sounds and thrills of the amp, at all volume levels As the owner of a tube amplifier, you know that it sounds and responds ideally when pushed to the maximum. But you also know that it is rare to be able to have the pleasure of pushing such an amp enough and to take advantage of its full potential. Direct boxes and volume attenuators controlled by the speaker output of a tube amp have been trying to solve this stubborn volume problem for years. But although they lower the volume in a perfectly acceptable way, they introduce changes in sound, dynamic response and distortion characteristics, often leaving guitarists dissatisfied. Thanks to its advanced reactivated load section, the Waza tube amplifier expander completely eliminates these risks of alterations and allows you to fully enjoy the optimal sound of your amp and its response while controlling the volume level in function game situations. The Resonance-Z and Presence-Z facade controllers are key elements of the Expander: they optimize the very important impedance interaction with the output transformer of your amplifier. With sixteen available settings, you can make your amp behave and respond exactly as if it were connected to your favorite speaker. The Expander is compatible with all amplifiers with a maximum power of 150 watts, from vintage combos to modern high gain amps. Full material control With many advanced control options, the Waza Tube Amplifier is a dream center for the stage or the studio. Ten configuration setting memories can be stored in the unit, each including your effects and equalization settings, impulse response choices, effects loop on / off status, Program Change MIDI (for control of external effects in MIDI) and of the amplifier's channel, if the latter is compatible with channel switching. These configuration memories can be recalled from the front button. Other controllers allow you to manage the Reverb and other functions. A Write button also saves minor adjustments in the middle of a concert. Connecting a GA-FC foot controller (optional) allows you to manage all this by leaving your fingers on your instrument. With the help of a simple stereo jack, you instantly access your 10 memorized configurations and control the Delay, Tap Tempo, EQ directly, you can turn the effects loop on or off and change channels on the 'amp. You can even manage the volume by connecting expression pedals (optional) to the GA-FC. The Waza tube amplifier expander also accepts FS range footswitches and MIDI controllers in more advanced configurations.
Effects at their maximum Thanks to its integrated effects generator and its external effects loop, the Waza tube amplifier expander brings a whole range of new sounds to your tube amp, especially if it is a vintage model. without effects loop. Built-in DSP delivers premium sound quality and true stereo operation with premium 32-bit analog-to-digital floating point processing and 96 kHz sampling frequency. Compressor, Delay and Reverb are available, with many customizable settings from the dedicated editing software. Four different equalizations are available to strategically shape your sound at different points in the signal path. It is even possible to use one of the equalizations as switchable boost for solos. External effects loop allows serial or parallel operation. It is compatible with both Line-type output products and standard stompbox effects. To power both speakers, mixers, recorders and headphones Once you have set up your amp in all its details, the Waza Tube Amplifier lets you send that sublime sound to many types of destinations. With parallel speaker outputs, you can power two stage speakers from the built-in 100 watt Class AB analog power section. In addition to providing a linear and fluid volume control for any connected amp, this robust power section also allows you to boost a low power amp to be able to use it on stage. Balanced mono and stereo Line outputs provide PA microphone emulation and impulse response control to further sculpt the sound, and provide direct signals to a mixer, monitor or recorder. A USB output is also present and offers another direct output to your favorite recording software. And thanks to the headphone output, you can enjoy your tube amp sound without disturbing anyone around. Extensive customization The Waza tube amplifier expander works perfectly as soon as you take it out of its packaging, but connecting it via USB to its dedicated editing software gives you even more possibilities.. First of all, you can modify the effects and EQs in their smallest details. Then, you can choose one of the 22 emulations of sound microphone for direct outputs, each made up of one of five proximity microphones and three ambient microphones, available to add depth and richness to your sound.. Four user ports allow you to load your speaker impulse responses as needed. Other settings are also available, including MIDI system parameters and Loudness for low volume. Your favorite configurations can be saved on your computer and organized in Live Sets for your different concerts and your multiple recording sessions.
