The Foxgear R-100 brings the legendary sound of ‘70s Orange amps straight to your pedalboard. We’re talking big low-end, juicy mids and sparkling highs that really cut through the mix. Whether you’re rehearsing, gigging, recording or practicing at home, the R-100 delivers uncompromising performance in a compact format.

Analog Variable Cabinet Simulator (Varicab)

What really sets the R-100 apart is its Varicab feature. This isn’t just another EQ tweak — it’s a fully analogue system that mimics the natural EQ curves of real speakers and microphones. With a simple twist of the knob, you can dial in the perfect sweet spot for your direct sound, making your XLR out feel like you’ve got a cab roaring behind you! Sweep from the massive thump of a 4×12” cab to the punchy presence of a 2×12”. Or tighten things up with a focused 1×12” for less low-end and more clarity.

Loads of control

Under the hood, you’ve got a classic tone stack inspired by the amp it’s emulating, a preamp level for shaping your tone, plus an amp level to control your output to a real guitar cab (100W @ 4Ω, 50W @ 8Ω, 25W @ 16Ω). Add in handy features like ground lift, standby and the option to bypass the cab sim for your favourite IRs, and you’ve got a seriously versatile amp that’s ready for any situation — all in a portable package.

Key Features

  • Authentic Orange-inspired tone: Get that iconic British sound with big headroom and punch — perfect for pedals and dynamic playing.
  • Analog Variable Cabinet Simulator (Varicab): Dial in a natural, cab-like tone when going direct, so your live or recorded sound feels just like the real thing.
  • Gig-ready power & flexibility: 100W RMS at 4Ω (scales down for 8Ω and 16Ω) means you’ve got enough muscle for any stage, while staying versatile for home and studio use.
  • Independent XLR out with level control: Send a balanced signal straight to a PA or interface with full control, avoiding ground loops and ensuring a clean, pro-level feed.

Preamp & DI Pedals

A preamp brings an instrument signal to a controlled level and shapes its impedance, gain and frequency balance before amplification or recording. A DI converts the signal for a balanced, low-impedance connection and may include ground lift, pad and transformer isolation. Combined units can add drive, cabinet filtering, effects loops and parallel outputs while keeping the direct path stable.

Tags

Analogue

The signal is shaped by continuously varying electronic circuitry rather than being converted into a digital effect algorithm. Component choice, operating voltage and circuit tolerances influence headroom, noise, clipping texture and the small variations in response between designs.

Cab Simulator

Recreates the strong frequency filtering and resonance imposed by a loudspeaker cabinet and its microphone. It removes the harsh, extended high end of an unfiltered preamp signal and may offer cabinet size, speaker, microphone, position and room choices.
