Darkglass Microtubes 500 Solid-State Bass Amplifier
The Microtubes® 500 is a 500W amplifier equipped with an all analog solid state preamplifier and a Class D Power Module. On the top row, you will find the clean section which is the foundation of your tone. It features a Gain control and an active 4 band EQ: along with Low and Treble controls, you will find Low Mids and Hi Mids controls, each knob with their own 2-way frequency switch. On the bottom row, you will find the Microtubes Engine®, an extra channel that will bring your clean tone to the next level by helping you cut through the mix while adding anything from subtle, tube-like, harmonics and natural compression to obliterating distortion.
Features
Passive/Active
Switch from passive to active mode. Some
active basses can have a hotter signal output which can make the
amplifier distort early (feel free to use it on Passive mode even with
active basses if such additional distortion is desired).
Microtubes
Engages
the Microtubes Engine™ to add natural compression, organic harmonic
enhancement, and saturation ranging from mild overdrive to high gain
bass rage. The Microtubes Engine operates before the clean section (you
can, therefore, use the 4 Band Active EQ for additional tone shaping in
addition to the Tone knob described below).
Drive
Sets the Microtubes Engine's distortion level. Ranging from soft, warm overdrive to
devastating saturation plus everything in between.
Tone
Controls
the high harmonic content of the Microtubes Engine via a variable low
pass filter: crank it up for additional attack and definition or dim it
down for a smoother sound. This is handy when running bright EQ settings
or cabinets with tweeters.
