Blackstar IDX:50 Digital Guitar Amplifier

The IDX:50 and IDX:100 amplifiers are Blackstar's latest high-power digital combos, building on the acclaimed original ID Series amplifiers and designed to deliver exceptional sound and versatility in a compact format and go directly up against the current industry leader in the hottest sector of the market, the Boss Katana. Featuring a built-in screen, these models offer intuitive navigation, real time feedback and deep editing of effects. Once an effect is selected, you can access up to 4 individual parameters on the screen to fine-tune the settings of each virtual stompbox. With advanced digital processing, the IDX series provides a broad range of tones to suit guitarists of all levels. Players can easily save and recall custom patches, allowing for quick access to their favourite settings. Combining sleek design with powerful performance, the IDX series is the ultimate all-in-one amplifier.

Main Features:

• High-Power Performance: 50W and 100W digital combo amps with selectable power modes (IDX:50: 1W/10W/50W; IDX:100: 1W/20W/100W).
• Voicing Options: Six amp voices, instantly recognisable to those familiar with the Blackstar ecosystem, ranging from crystal clear cleans and subtle edge-of-breakup tones to rich crunch and our signature high gain sound.
• Intuitive Controls: 4-band EQ (Bass, Mid, Treble, ISF), Gain, Volume and Voice controls for a familiar, yet flexible, panel.
• Effects Flexibility: With over 35 Pre FX, Modulations, Delays, and Reverbs built in, each with relevant control parameters and all selectable, and editable, directly from the amp plus an effects loop to connect external stompboxes.
• Dynamic Display: A digital display screen provides patch names, effect selection, individual effects parameters, intuitive recall control as well as other additional information.
• Flexible Valve Responses: Choose between EL84, EL34, and 6L6 response settings to emulate classic valve amp feel and tone.
• Direct Connectivity: CabRig via balanced XLR out, USB-C or ¼" jack, and a 3.5mm line in for audio playback.
• Footswitch Compatibility: An addition of the FS-12 will allow for full flexibility of this amplifier. FS-18 and other 2-button latching footswitches are also compatible.
