Leave Your Amp At Home.
Nothing reveals the true nature of your guitar and your playing like a world-class tube amp driving a perfectly matched speaker cabinet in a great sounding room. Now there is a pedal that truly delivers that sound and feel, with simple controls for effortlessly dialing in the perfect amp tone when going direct. Discover inspiring tube amp responsiveness, unprecedented impulse response speaker cabinet realism, and controllable natural sounding room ambience.
Go Direct With Gorgeous Tone.
Iridium gives you three iconic amplifiers, with a total of nine impulse response speaker cabinets that complement the tonality of the amp. Skip the hassle of lugging around or miking amps. Place Iridium on your pedalboard and send gorgeous stereo amplifier tones, stunningly realistic cabs, and lush room ambience direct to a recording interface or PA system. With Iridium, it’s a snap to dial in a direct tone that will truly inspire and sound great whether you are monitoring through in-ears, floor wedges, reference monitors, or studio headphones.
Three Iconic Amplifiers
Our Matrix Modeling™ process captures all the subtleties and unique tonal qualities of each amplifier. We’ve taken three iconic tube amps with distinct characters and mathematically modeled every aspect of their circuitry with absolute precision to deliver the response, feel, and inspiring experience of playing through the original amps at their best. Taking the process a step further, we’ve hot-rodded each amp to provide an extended range of tonal options beyond what was available from the original designs.
Nine Stereo IR Cabinets
Iridium’s speaker cabinets offer a level of realism and responsiveness unprecedented in outboard effects. Iridium delivers full stereo 24bit 96kHz resolution for the entire 500 milliseconds of its speaker cabinet impulse responses. Until now, IRs of this resolution have only been available for use within studio recording software. Iridium’s breakthrough technology means you can use the very best impulse responses available, bringing maximum realism to your pedalboard.
Adjustable Room Ambience
Iridium’s hybrid room reverb combines a 256 millisecond stereo impulse response with Strymon’s reverb tank algorithm for extended decay. This combination places your amp and cab in a natural sounding room (small, medium, or large), creating a space for your amp to open up and breathe.
More Features
Room Ambience
Iridium features a hybrid room ambience design that combines 256ms impulse response captures of real rooms for realistic early reflections, with an algorithm for extended decay and modulation.
This combination places your amp and cab in a natural sounding room, creating a real space for your amp to open up and breathe.
In addition to controlling the amount of room ambience, you can also choose a small, medium, or large room.
Analog JFET Front End
Iridium’s input features an ultra low noise, discrete, class-A JFET preamp circuit providing up to 20dB of pure analog gain.
This variable gain JFET circuit is used in concert with DSP to create the tube driven input stage of each of Iridium’s amps.
With our hybrid approach you get the best of both analog and digital worlds. The JFET stage acts as an analog front end conditioner, providing exceptional touch sensitivity and dynamic interaction with your guitar while improving noise performance, and the incredibly powerful SHARC DSP facilitates the great level of detailed complexity and responsiveness of each tube amp’s circuitry.
This combination of variable gain JFET and DSP is also how we are able to deliver that hot-rodded extra gain at the top end of the Drive knob for the Chime and Punch amps.
Stereo Operation
Iridium is perfect for use with stereo effects in stereo rigs.
Iridium’s TS-mono/TRS-stereo input features stereo class-A JFET preamps feeding into a stereo amp driving a stereo speaker cabinet in a stereo-captured room feeding stereo outputs.
Headphone Out
You can’t always crank up an amplifier when you want to play in your living room or rehearse at home.
Plug your favorite set of headphones into Iridium’s headphone jack and get immersed in the sounds of iconic amps and cabs in a natural sounding room.
Presets
Iridium allows you to save and recall your favorite settings.
Simply dial up your favorite sound, and press and hold the Favorite switch to save these settings.
Instantly recall these settings with the press of the Favorite switch, or press again to return back to the current knob and switch settings.
Or, connect a MultiSwitch Plus to give you access to 4 presets right at your feet. You can also connect a MIDI device to access up to 300 presets.
MIDI Control – Hidden Superpower
Lurking inside your Iridium pedal is a hidden superpower: MIDI Control.
Save and load presets with up to 300 preset locations. Control all knobs and switches via MIDI.
Integrate Iridium into an elaborate MIDI pedalboard or use in an ultra-compact setup for easy travel.
Connect our MIDI EXP Cable to the EXP/MIDI pedal jack to access these features.
Expression – Powerful Expression Control
With Volume Mode, you can connect an expression pedal and use it as a Volume pedal, providing a logarithmic taper for smooth volume control.
This provides an excellent alternative to a standalone volume pedal.
Volume can be set for pre or post amp, cab, and room settings.
Or, use your expression pedal to enjoy a whole new level of instantaneous, continuous control.
Set as many knobs as you like for the heel position and toe position of your expression pedal, and all settings will simultaneously morph throughout the full range of the expression pedal.
