ULTRA-G GI100 User Manual
The GI100 features a switchable speaker simulation, developed in collaboration with
renowned amp designer Jürgen Rath, which adds the sound of a 4 x 12" cabinet to your
direct guitar signal at the touch of a button. Analog speaker simulations, offering the
possibility to get a typical guitar cabinet sound to tape or to a PA without the necessity of
cabinets or microphones, have been available since the mid-80’s. Since then, the appeal of
“instant sound” via simulation as a means of reducing equipment and hassle has continuously
grown. Having developed a great deal of convincing guitar gear with various manufacturers,
Jürgen Rath was an obvious choice for us in developing our VIRTUAL 4 x 12" CABINET
speaker simulation. In the words of Germany’s top specialty publication GITARRE & BASS,
“The Virtual Cabinet delivers an authentic 4 x 12" simulation with impressive sound,
cutting power and clear reproduction.” (Michael Dommers, 8/97)
