Description

Quick Product Summary

The IK Multimedia AmpliTube X-VIBE is a powerful multi-modulation pedal covering everything from rich chorus and classic phasing to flanging, rotary effects, tremolo and rhythmic modulation.

This used example is in Good condition, showing signs of previous use consistent with a pre-owned pedal. With 16 modulation algorithms, extensive preset storage, true stereo operation, MIDI and USB connectivity, it offers the flexibility needed for both straightforward pedalboard sounds and more sophisticated live or studio setups.

What Makes the IK Multimedia AmpliTube X-VIBE Special?

The X-VIBE brings together 16 high-quality modulation algorithms, including several chorus and phaser variations alongside Uni-Vibe-style modulation, flanging, rotary, tremolo and beat-synchronised rhythmic effects. A dedicated X-MODE provides additional performance possibilities, while Tap Tempo and BPM synchronisation make time-based modulation easy to match to a song.

Up to 300 presets can be stored, with 50 factory presets provided, while MIDI, expression control and USB connectivity make the X-VIBE suitable for advanced switching and recording systems. Its true stereo signal path also makes excellent use of wide chorus, rotary and other spatial modulation effects.

Who Is It For?

The X-VIBE is ideal for guitarists who want a broad collection of modulation effects without filling a pedalboard with individual chorus, phaser, flanger, tremolo and rotary pedals.

It suits rock, funk, alternative, progressive, ambient, pop and experimental styles, while its preset storage, MIDI implementation and stereo connectivity make it particularly useful for players with more complex live or studio rigs.
