Advanced Modeling Technology Accurately Recreates Iconic Amp

At the heart of the Ampworx DC30 is TC Electronic's acclaimed AMPWORX modeling technology. It meticulously analyzes every component and nuance of the original 1965 AC30 Top Boost circuit to reproduce the amp's unique tone and response. From the preamp staging to the power amp compression and tube sag, every detail is faithfully captured. The resulting amp model is the most precise recreation of this British classic ever produced. Whether you're a fan of early British Invasion bands or modern rock, the Ampworx DC30 delivers the jangly clean headroom, sweet overdrive and rich harmonic bloom that made this amp legendary.

Independent Channel and Tone Controls Offer Flexibility

The Ampworx DC30 gives you independent control over each channel, just like the original amp. Tweak the Normal channel for sparkling clean tones, then kick in the Top Boost channel to take your sound into overdriven territory. Dedicated treble and bass EQ knobs let you sculpt your tone precisely. Engage the pre/post gain boost to punch up your sound for solos or choruses. With this level of tonal control in a stompbox, you can recreate vintage British rock tones or craft modern sounds infused with just the right touch of classic vibe.

Optional Cabinet Simulator Captures Realistic Guitar Speaker Tone

While the Ampworx DC30 sounds fantastic on its own, you can take it to the next level by engaging the optional cabinet simulation. Developed with Celestion, it uses impulse responses to accurately recreate the sound of a 2x12" Alnico Blue speaker cabinet. The result is a gorgeously realistic guitar tone, with the warmth, resonance and speaker interaction you'd expect from a physical amp and cab setup. Whether practicing at home, gigging on stage or recording in the studio, the cabinet sim ensures your tone always shines through.

Flexible Connectivity Options for Any Setup

With its array of connectivity options, the Ampworx DC30 is ready to integrate into any playing scenario. Send your tone directly to a PA system, mixer, audio interface or DAW over XLR. Plug in headphones for silent practice sessions. The amp input lets you run the DC30 into your existing tube amp for analog power amp distortion and speaker character. Using the DC30's effects loop, you can connect your favorite pedals for further tone-shaping possibilities. The familiar stompbox design provides easy on/off control and a streamlined interface. Unlock classic British rock tone with the TC Electronic Ampworx DC30 preamp pedal.
