Beta Bass Pre-amp

Beta, the most awe inspiring bass technology and sound

The Beta Bass Preamplifier offers the professional bassist the highest level of performance that only ISP Technologies can provide. By incorporating our patented Time Vector Processing, the compression circuitry becomes the most adaptive to be used in a bass processor as it allows the Beta to truly track the signal of the notes played. Add in the patented Decimator Noise Reduction Technology, and you have the only bass processor on the market with built in noise protection! With two parametric bands (a low mid and a high mid), bass, treble, bright and an exciter (for phase manipulation), the Beta lets you shape your sound to your own specifications. For absolutely unsurpassable performance, pair the BETA Bass with the ISP Technologies BASS VECTOR or BASS VECTOR Pro cabinets and get up to 4000 watts of bass depending on your choice of configuration!

Features

  • Extreme equalization including Bass, Treble, Bright, Low Mid parametric, High Mid parametric Foot switch controlled ISP Technologies Bass Exciter.
  • Signal level indicator with Multi-stage clip detection allows accurate control of the internal gain structure of the preamplifier and processor.

Bass Vector 118 B

Tired of the limited performance of 4x10 bass cabinets? ISP Technologies has taken a different approach to the modern bass guitar system.

ISP Technologies has taken a different approach to the modern bass guitar system. Combining the low frequency extension that only an 18" driver can achieve with the natural, extended (but not brittle) highs of dual 8" drivers, the Bass Vector cabinet achieves a balance of depth, impact, and definition that makes 4x10's sound lifeless in comparison! The 'Pro' version takes this concept to the ultimate by the use of a cutting-edge technology, ultra-high-excursion, 1100 watt rms 18" driver, and dedicating the entire 1000 watt rms amplifier to driving a single cabinet. The output is increased by 2 to 3 dB over the standard Bass Vector, and simply leaves 4x10's in the dust, typically exceeding their output at 40 Hz by 6 dB or more at high volumes.

Want more output? The total system power can be further increased by adding additional active cabinets. The line-array topology allows for stacking up to 4 cabinets, keeping the 8" drivers in a vertical line for best horizontal dispersion of the highs. A passive version is available for use with your existing head.

The ISP Beta Bass Preamplifier is the ideal 'head' for the system, or the active cabinet can be used with other bass heads when driven from their line output, and the passive cabinet can be driven from virtually any powered bass head.

The extreme performance 18" driver is complemented by an advanced cabinet design featuring optimum volume and a large, deep tuned port. This helps to minimize the non-linear behaviour and reduced low frequency output that small ports produce. The cabinet is tour grade, with Baltic Birch plywood construction, dadoed joints, extremely durable rubberised polyurethane finish, metal handles, and castors.

Available in active and passive versions, a single active cabinet delivers 600 watts RMS to its speakers. When an additional passive cabinet is connected, the amplifier delivers a total of 1000 watt RMS to the two cabinets. The total system power can be further increased by adding additional active and passive cabinets. There is a limit of 1 passive cabinet per active cabinet.

Features

  • Extreme performance bass guitar cabinet with one 18-inch woofer and dual 8" midrange drivers in line array topology
  • Exceeds the performance of typical 4x10 cabinets by 6 dB or more at 40 Hz at high volumes.
  • 1000 Wrms D-CAT amplifier built in (active version).

Bass Vector 115

ISP Technologies presents the newest edition to the rapidly growing Bass Vector family.

Now you can get the same great Bass Vector performance, in a smaller and more compact package! Combining the low frequency extension that only an 15" driver can achieve with the natural, extended (but not brittle) highs of dual 8" drivers, the Bass Vector 115 cabinet achieves a balance of depth, impact, and definition that makes 4x10's sound lifeless in comparison!

Available in active and passive versions, a single active cabinet delivers 600 watts to its speakers. When an additional passive cabinet is connected, the amplifier delivers a total of 1000 watt RMS to the two cabinets. The total system power can be further increased by adding additional active and passive cabinets. There is a limit of 1 passive cabinet per active cabinet.

The ISP Beta Bass Preamplifier is the ideal 'head' for the system, or the active cabinet can be used with other bass heads when driven from their line output, and the passive cabinet can be driven from virtually any powered bass head.

The high performance 15" driver is complemented by an advanced cabinet design featuring optimum volume and a large, deep tuned port. This helps to minimize the non-linear behaviour and reduced low frequency output that small ports produce. The cabinet is tour grade, with Baltic Birch plywood construction, dadoed joints, extremely durable rubberized polyurethane finish, metal handle, and castors.

Features

  • High performance bass guitar cabinet with one 15-inch woofer and dual 8" midrange drivers in line array topology
  • Smaller and lighter-weight than the 18" version, but still the same great tone and quality.
  • 1000 wrms D-CAT amplifier built in (active version).
