Pedal Amps & Headphone Amps

Pedal-format amplifiers contain a power-amp stage, headphone driver or both, allowing a pedalboard signal to drive speakers or headphones directly. Output power and minimum speaker impedance are critical for power amps; headphone impedance, cabinet simulation and auxiliary inputs matter for silent monitoring. Some designs also provide preamp voicing, effects loops, balanced outputs or USB recording.

Tags

Bluetooth

Provides a short-range wireless data or audio connection. Depending on the design it may carry backing audio, editing commands, preset management or MIDI rather than the live instrument signal; codec delay and supported Bluetooth profiles determine what the connection can do.

MIDI

Sends, receives or responds to Musical Instrument Digital Interface messages rather than carrying the instrument audio itself. Program changes recall presets, continuous controllers move parameters, and MIDI clock or transport messages synchronise timing between devices.

Presets

Stores complete groups of parameter values for later recall. The number of locations, switching time, spillover behaviour and whether presets include routing, expression and MIDI assignments determine how completely one sound can change into another.

USB

Provides a Universal Serial Bus connection for power, audio, MIDI, firmware or editing data. The supported USB class and connector do not by themselves show its purpose; channel count, sample format, host compatibility and power demand define the actual function.
