ValveSonic Black Plate +

Rocktron introduces another four-tube monster preamp! Producing tones only possible with tubes, Rocktron and LA Custom deliver the goods with the new ValveSonic Black Plate + all tube guitar preamp!

Buy Online

Providing unprecedented sonic versatility with another four-tube monster in the ValveSonic series, the Rocktron ValveSonic Black Plate + model captures the tone of the iconic American combo known for its pristine clean sound and smooth overdrive when cranked up. We’re talking 50’s “Hybrid Tweed” to 60’s classic “Black Plate” Panel. But this ValveSonic takes it even further providing the hot-rodded tones of the classic California amps. All this with a single preamp! Features:The Valvesonic Black Plate + features a front panel input jack. The 1-2 switch affects the input of the tube stage in the preamp. When switched to “1”, the unit provides the more modern “hot-rodded” type of input used on the classic “California” style amps. When switched to “2”, the unit provides the classic type “Tweed” and “Black Face Panel” type “American” amps. The Tight switch is used in conjunction with the 1-2 switch; in the up position the input is “tightened up”. Bright Control:The ValveSonic BRIGHT control is a five position switch that provides four different bright variations to the overall tone found in classic American and “hot-rodded” California amplifiers, with 0 being off and 5 being the brightest. Gain Control:The GAIN control is used to determine the amount of GAIN Input level driving the ValveSonic tubes. Boost can be obtained by flipping the Boost switch to the On position. The Boost works in conjunction with the “+” switch. When the Boost switch is On and the “+” switch is in the down position you will obtain an extra gain stage. When the “+” switch is Up, you obtain an additional gain stage and essentially add an entire tube to the front end, replicating the “hot-rodded” California style amps. Bass, Middle and Treble controls determine the amount of these various frequencies present in the signal. EQ: The EQ 1 & 2 switch replicates the two different style EQs that were used in American amplifiers over the years. In the Up position, (position 1), the 50’s “Tweed” EQ is replicated, providing a more modern midrange emphasis. In the Down position, (position 2), 60’s “Black Plate” Panel EQ is replicated. Afterburner:The ValveSonic series features a unique AFTERBURNER switch. This switch works in conjunction with the DRIVE control, providing yet another gain stage after the EQ section of the preamp. When the AFTERBURNER is turned On, this switch emulates a post phase inverter master. When On, you can utilize the Drive control to adjust the amount of Drive present in the AFTERBURNER stage. High Cut Control:The ValveSonic also features HIGH CUT control to adjust the High Frequency cut in order to roll off some of the high end “sizzle” when the high gain is used. The Master control determines the output level of the preamp.

Prophesy

The Ultimate Guitar Preamp w/Effects

Take the Top 4 guitar sounds used in todays
music:

Clean American
Texas Blues
Vintage British
Mega Drive

And combine them with the best sounding effects
available:

Ducker Delay
Reverb
Tremolo
Chorus
Flanger
Phaser
Compressor
Wah Wah
Pitch Shifter
Rotary Speaker Simulator

….and you have the most versatile, powerful, user friendly,
all in one guitar signal processing system available – ever!
The Prophesy is even more than that!
Features:

Dynamic Tube Replication Technology (DTR)
User Definable Effect Configurations
User Assignable Stereo Effect Loop
Tap Tempo Delay and Tremolo
Built-in Chromatic Tuner
Stereo XLR Outputs
Real Amp Knobs for On-The-Fly Tone, Volume and Preset
Adjustments
Pluck Detector (patent-pending) and ADSR for
Dynamic Effect Control
Pre and Post Distortion and Global EQ
Pre Distortion Effects and Post Distortion Effects
Programmable Speaker Simulator w/ Parameters for Speaker Size,
MIC Position, Reactance

Preamp Section
The preamp section features four channels each with their own
distinct voicings to provide a vast array of desired tube amp sounds. Each
voicing may be thought of as a channel and each channel has its own
basic gain and master controls with bass, mid, treble and presence controls, all easily
accessible with real amp knobs on the front panel, just like a regular amp
head.

Channel 1 or Clean American, replicates some of the most
sought-after clean vintage tweed amps of the late 50s and 60s.
Channel 2 or Texas Blues, is a vintage tweed with
a bit more kick and bite often heard from the famous southwest
bluesers ala Billy Gibbons, Stevie Ray, Eric Johnson, Etc..
Channel 3 or Vintage British, is a traditional
Plexi Style tone offering some of the most dynamic rhythm tone available.
Channel 4 or Mega Drive is considered the Holy
Grail of almighty heavy tone of modern music pumping out everything from early Van Halen
to Ramstein and everything in between.

The preamp section also features a parametric Pre EQ, which
allows you to pre-shape your tone to simulate the characteristics of several
different guitars (such as fine-tuning your Strat to sound more like a Les Paul, Etc) as
well as an additional parametric Post EQ to add extra Lows, High, or scoop out the Mids.
And if thats not enough, we also included a Global Parametric EQ which adjust the
overall output of the Prophesy on all presets.
Effects Section
The effect section of the prophesy is divided up into two
sections, Pre distortion (or pre-preamp), and post distortion (or post preamp) for
unlimited configurations of effects. The pre-effects section features Wah, Compressor,
HUSH(r), Pre-EQ, as well as one assignable effect of your choice. The post-effects section
provides ultra-transparent, high-quality effects which completely preserve the tone of the
preamp-thick reverbs and lush choruses can be used without coloring the sound of the
preamps tone. Four assignable effect blocks allow you to assign 1 effect
pre-preamp and 3 post preamp effects in any order you choose, including Phaser, Flanger,
Chorus, Pitch Shift, Rotary Speaker, Ducker Delay, etc. Prophesy also features a versatile
mixer section to control the mix between dry and wet signal output of every effect used in
the preset.
If the effects in the Prophesy are not enough, we included a true stereo effect loop which
may be assigned anywhere in the effect chain just like an internal effect. Want just an
incredibly powerful effect processor? Just bypass the preamp section completely and use
the Prophesy a stand-alone effect unit.
The ADSR (Attack/Decay/Sustain/Release) function features
Rocktrons Pluck Detection patent-pending, and allows you to configure any of the
Prophesy parameters to be controlled dynamically by each pluck of a guitar string.
Other features include a visual representation of the
assigned effects signal chain, preset title, the voicing (channel) being used, are all
conveniently displayed on the first preset page. The buttons in the 16 button matrix show
the effect status (in or out) as well as allow you to instantly jump to those
effects parameter pages for instant adjustment.
Of course, the Prophesy maintains the high quality
operational features that Rocktron processors are well known for, such as glitch-free
preset switching with no signal drop out or lag time and the most natural sounding
effects.

Input impedance 470K ohms
output impedance <150 ohms,

Power Tap
Power your entire pedalboard with Rocktron’s PowerTap.

Buy Online

The Rocktron PowerTap 9 Volt Adjustable Pedal Power provides a variety of power options. The PowerTap design allows for consistant flow of power by jacks that are “isolated” and “noiseless”. The small chassis fits neatly on your pedalboard, conserving room.Three AC Output plugs are included, two on the sides and one on the back. The side plugs allow for better placement on your pedalboard.To accommodate the many variations in power requirements for different pedals, Rocktron has included 5 jacks on the front that are switchable between DC9V and DC12V.Two additional jacks on the front provide variable power from DC4V to DC9V allowing you to achieve the “dying” battery effect desired by many guitar players. We’ve also included one AC jack to power pedals requiring AC power.Traveling to another country? The Rocktron PowerTap is switchable from 115V to 230V.DC 9VOLT OUTPUTSThese 5 outputs provide 9V DC power, or 12V DC power. Before plugging any pedals into these jacks, be sure to determine what power is required by your pedal. Then use the DIP switches located on the back of the PowerTap to select DC9V or DC12V. Use the included cables to plug in your pedals.DC SAG 4V – 9VThese 2 outputs provide either 9V power or variable 4V-9V power. The DIP switches on the back panel of the PowerTap determine if these jacks supply 9V power or a variable power from 4V-9V. When selected, the 4V-9V power can be adjusted, allowing you to emulate the “dying battery” effect.AC9 VOLTThis output provides AC 9V power and requires CAUTION when plugging into this jack. First determine if your pedal needs DC or AC power before using this jack.AC OUTPUTThere are 3 AC Output jacks provided on the PowerTap which provide AC power.230V-115 VOLTAGE SELECTORThis switch determines the voltage coming into the PowerTap. When in the USA, use 115V. 230V is used for Europe and many other places around the world. First determine the voltage in the country where you are using the PowerTap before selecting a voltage.VOLTAGE SELECTOR DIP SWITCHESThese switches determine the voltage output of the jacks on the front of the PowerTap unit. Switches 1-5, when in the UP position provide DC12V power on outputs 1-5 and when in the DOWN position provide DC9V power on outputs 1-5. Switches 6-7, when in the UP position provide DC4V-9V power on outputs 6-7, and when in the DOWN position provide DC9V power on outputs 6-7 on the front panel. Switch 8, when in the UP position provides AC9V power on output 8, and when in the DOWN position provides AC9V power on output 8 on the front panel.AC INPUTThis is the AC power input connection. Use the included cable to plug the PowerTap into a wall power source.CABLESThe Rocktron PowerTap comes with 11 connector cables to supply power to your pedals. Using the included jumper cables, you can power a variety of pedals. The polarity is TIP “NEGATIVE” and BARREL “POSITIVE”. Most pedals are TIP Negative and BARREL Positive, however it is important that you first determine what your particular pedals require before using these cables.6 BLACK cables are 5.5 x 2.1mm (jack), Tip Negative, Barrel Positive.1 GRAY cable is 5.5 x 2.5mm (jack). This is an AC cable and should only be used with AC Output on the PowerTap. Do not use this cable with DC (Battery Powered) pedals as it will damage the pedal and/or the PowerTap.1 BLACK 3.5mm (1/8″) mini plug cable to be used with older stomp boxes requiring this type of jack is included. This cable is TIP Positive. Check your pedal’s power requirements before using this cable.1 BLACK 9V battery snap cable to be used on pedals that only run on a batter and do not have an adaptor power jack is included.1 BLUE cable with a 2.5mm plug that allows you to plug in pedals that require a larger or 2.5mm plug is included. This is TIP Positive and the Barrel is Negative.1 RED Reverse Polarity cable is included. The TIP is Positive and the Barrel is Negative.
