Komet AmbiKab Lets You Add Guitar Spatial Effects Without Sacrificing Tone
By HC News |
The 100% processed (wet) output signal from your effects is returned, in mono or stereo, to the AmbiKab’s 180 watt, Class D, stereo power amplifier, which drives a dedicated pair of eight-inch Celestion speakers. An Effects Volume control for the internal stereo amplifier governs the proportion of wet signal that is being added to the overall cabinet mix, providing natural guitar tone andd stereo ambient effects.
By applying effects after the amplifier’s distortion, the AmbiKab utilizes the natural tone of your guitar amp to feed your digital or analog delay or reverb, much as you would do at mixdown in a recording studio. Since the guitar amplifier is connected directly to the AmbiKab’s internal 12-inch speakers, it reacts to the player in a natural, musical way, as intended by the amplifier’s designer. In addition, the ratio between wet and dry signals stays constant, so as the guitarist rolls down the volume to clean up the amplifier’s sound, or varies picking dynamics, the effects signal does not change in proportion to the amplifier’s output signal. This solves an issue encountered with guitar amplifiers that have built-in reverb, where if you set your reverb level for your lead sound, the reverb disappears when you roll down your volume for rhythm, and vice versa.
