General

The Blackstar ID:Core has evolved again! This popular stereo guitar amplifier has reached its fourth incarnation and is still as perfect as ever for both beginners and experienced guitarists in need of a high-quality practice tool. The ID:Core V4 comes loaded with six different voicings ranging from pure cleans to fat high-gain, where every sound can be nudged towards British-style or American-style thanks to Blackstar's unique-and-patented Infinite Shape Feature (ISF).

The ID:Core V4: All You Need

In addition to two full-range speakers that support super-wide stereo sound but can also handle audio from video-games and films, the Blackstar ID:Core V4 features built-in modulation, reverb and delay effects, the latter of which even comes with a tap tempo function. You also get six preset slots for storing your favourite setting combos, a built-in attenuator so you can drop the output to just 1 Watt, and a headphone output for more private practice sessions.

Live-Streaming and Recording

Thinking of modern guitarists, Blackstar have outfitted the fourth-gen ID:Core with various welcome upgrades, like the option to stream directly to platforms like Instagram via your phone and a TRRS cable. The ID:Core V4 10 also doubles as a USB audio interface and is equipped with Cab Rig Lite DSP speaker simulation technology to guarantee authentic sound. Lastly, this amp supports the free Architect-software for Windows/Mac so you can adjust the sound in detail and share patches with friends and fellow guitarists.

Prima versterker om thuis in de huis- of muziekkamer te spelen en te oefenen.

Ik gebruik deze versterker als oefenversterker naast mijn andere setups met Pedalboard. Een zeer dynamische en intuïtieve gitaarversterker die ook zeker gebruikt kan worden voor kleine sessies. Vooral de voorgeprogrammeerde geluids- en effecten modi en de mogelijkheid deze ook op lage volumeniveaus te gebruiken maken de ID Core een perfecte begeleider voor vele gebruiksdoelen. In 20V heb je het beste compromis tussen krachtig genoeg en handelbaarheid, ook in bijvoorbeeld een appartement. Erg blij mee.

Fijne versterker met heel wat mogelijkheden. Die mogelijkheden kun je eigenlijk pas volledig benutten als de de architect software via een aangesloten laptop gebruikt. De 1 watt knop is erg fijn als je even wilt oefenen zonder anderen teveel lastig te vallen.
