Bogren Digital Ampknob BDE 120 (Digital produkt)

BDE 120

The Ampknob BDE 120 embodies one of the most powerful and distinctive high-gain sounds of the past thirty years. Renowned for its crushing low end, sharp attack, and intense upper mids, this amplifier has established itself as a fundamental element in modern metal recordings and is a key component of producer Jens Bogren’s signature tone.

This 120-watt powerhouse is far from a mere "shelf-warmer" in the Fascination Street studios' collection. It stands out as one of Jens Bogren’s personal favorites, the go-to amp for achieving precision, aggression, and clarity that is ready for mixing.

From tight rhythm chugs to soaring, saturated leads, the BDE 120 delivers a tone that cuts through even the most complex arrangements.

The Future of Speaker Modeling

Our IRDX (Impulse Response Dynamix) technology revitalizes guitar sound by introducing dynamic and authentic speaker behavior to static impulse responses. Developed by Jens Bogren, this technology employs advanced machine learning techniques to replicate the differences between a real cabinet and an impulse response.

The result is a guitar amp simulation that reacts like a real amplifier, fitting seamlessly into a mix without sounding stale, and providing an engaging playing experience. While impulse responses capture the tonal qualities of a guitar cabinet, they are inherently static snapshots. In contrast, real-life guitar speakers respond dynamically to amplifier input, moving air, compressing, and breaking up based on how hard they are driven.
