Description
The Friedman IR-D Dual-channel Tube Preamp pedal is perfect for guitarists seeking world-class tube amp tones without having to lug around a heavy amplifier. Featuring two high-voltage 12AX7 tubes, this incredible guitar pedal has a rich, dynamic sound that'll bring your playing to life. Plus, it boasts multiple impulse response cabinet simulations, 128 MIDI presets, and two fully independent channels, making it a must-have pedal for guitarists who value versatility.
At the heart of the Friedman IR-D is a pair of 12AX7 preamp tubes. These tubes deliver an out-of-this-world sound that's vibrant, complex, and reacts to your playing in a remarkably musical way. But that's not all that makes this pedal a top-notch tone machine - it features 13 Friedman Cabinet IRs, loadable using the Friedman Editor software, allowing musicians to create a wide range of rockin' tones.
Out of the box, the IR-D is loaded with three IR cabinet emulations, which are selectable using the mini toggle switch. The first IR setting is a recreation of Dave Friedman's favorite 4 x 12 cab equipped with 6402 Greenback speakers and captured with an SM57 and R-121. The second setting is a simulation of a 1960B cabinet from the '80s, and it has a powerful, driving tone that's perfect for modern rock. The final mode delivers the clean, detailed, and airy sound of a Friedman Dirty Shirley 1 x 12 open-back speaker cabinet with a G12-50GL speaker.
In addition to a 3-band EQ that lets guitarists shape their signal with precision, the Friedman IR-D Dual-Channel Tube Preamp has two separate boost circuits for maximum sonic flexibility. Plus, it's MIDI-capable for musicians who want to activate presets remotely or switch channels using a laptop during live performances. To take things to the next level, guitarists can use the included Friedman Editor software to load IRs, save their favorite settings to one of 128 MIDI presets, and even adjust each channel's power amp simulation.
The Friedman IR-D Dual-Channel Tube Preamp is much more than a standard "amp-in-a-box" pedal. It's a full-fledged Friedman rig in a compact, heavy-duty enclosure. Whether you're looking to use it as a preamp, a total replacement for your stage amp, or a top-of-the-line IR loader, this stompbox is an outstanding creative tool with limitless applications.
