The TC Electronic V550 is a preamp pedal that authentically recreates the tone of a classic high-gain amp from 1992. Offering two independent channels with their own gain volume and EQ controls. This amp excels at hard rock and both vintage or modern metal tones – from classic Heavy Metal to modern Djent. Perfect for home recording practice and live performances this pedal gives you realistic amp tone and feel right on your pedalboard. The V550 also offers a switchable 5 dB of pre or post-amp boost adding more gain to your tone to drive the amp harder for heavier music boosting mids like using an overdrive pedal would. Its DI output features an official Celestion cabinet simulation emulating a 4 x 12 cabinet loaded with their G12M Greenback speakers for the authentic sound of large stacks great for gigging directly into a PA system or running into an audio interface for recording. The additional headphone output ensures that this preamp pedal can be used for noiseless practice sessions.
Authentic and detailed recreation The most important element of an amp simulation pedal is how realistic it sounds and feels and the V550 delivers this in spades. Its dual-channel architecture allows you to crank up the gain for both classic and modern metal tones or some aggressive hard rock. Alternatively you can focus on a single channel and achieve shimmering cleans. Individual volume EQ and gain controls allow you to stack amplification stages your way as well as a master presence control to get the tone and feel of the real deal on your pedalboard.. An extra boost The V550s built-in boost circuitry adds not only an extra 5 dB of gain but a distinctive mid-boost that accurately represents the sound and feel of stacking an overdrive pedal either before or after your amp with a switchable pre or post-position. Official cabinet simulation To add that final touch of polish this preamp pedal comes with an official Celestion cabinet simulator emulating the classically massive 4 x 12 cabinets the amp that inspired this pedal always came with. This recreates the tone of Celestions G12M Greenback speakers used in some of the more classic large 4 x 12 cabs for even more authenticity. Its individual DI output makes it easy to run directly into PA systems when playing live or audio interfaces when recording at home.
