The A.C.E. (Analog Cabinet Emulator) is an active analog cabinet emulator designed to offer guitarists a portable and convenient way to capture the complex characteristics of a guitar speaker cabinet for a variety of recording (silent* or in a studio) and live performance applications without the use of a microphone. Moving Analog Forward100% pure analog signal path from start to finish, the A.C.E. employs an advanced Multi-StageFiltering (MSF) network to generate stunningly realistic speaker cabinet simulations that capture/bring to life all the warmth, punch and character of a mic’d speaker cabinet to any performance without the assistance of DSP (digital signal processing).Musically VersatileA.C.E.’s on-board filtering controls is not your run of the mill EQ. Each control (Subs, Highs andPresence) was carefully voiced to offer a musical range of tone shaping (versatility) without becoming unrealistic, synthetic or fatiguing when crafting/fine tuning your desired/ideal cabinet response.Ready For AnythingFully equipped with a comprehensive set of interface features, A.C.E. makes it easy to connect with a variety of recording and sound reinforcement equipment for any situation. A.C.E. features dedicated Amplifier and Line Level inputs, a 1/4” (unbalanced) and XLR (balanced) DI/Line Output section complete with Phase and Ground Lift functions for the XLR output, a 1/4” Thru output and last but not least, optimized 18 Vdc circuitry for maximum headroom and dynamic range. Whether you are in the studio or on the road, the A.C.E. is sure to become an invaluable tool to delivering a flexible variety of emulated cabinet simulations consistently, every time. FEATURES• Active Analog Cabinet Emulator • Multi-Stage Filtering (MSF) Cabinet Emulation (bypassable) • Unbalanced 1/4″ & Balanced XLR Line Out Section • Phase and Ground Lift For XLR Output • Optimized 18-Volt Circuitry For Maximum Headroom and Dynamic Range • Compact Half Rack Enclosure * A.C.E. is not a load device. Make sure your amplifier is connected to a suitable load (Suhr Reactive Load) or speaker cabinet when using A.C.E. to avoid damage.
