Bugera PS1 Passive 100-watt Power Attenuator
Passive 100W Tube Guitar Amplifier Attenuator with Emulated Outputs, and 4-, 8-, and 16-ohm Amplifier Inputs
Affordable Attenuation for Your High-powered Amp
Bugera's PS1 is a 100-watt tube amplifier attenuator that helps you achieve thick cranked-amp tone at much more manageable volumes. By placing it between your tube amp's speaker output and your speaker, you can turn your amp to its max, while bringing the volume down via the PS1. The attenuator's Emulated Mic Output simulates the feel and sound of a great speaker cab and sends that tone direct to the console — perfect for recording or live performance without a mic. If you love the sound of your amp cranked up, you'll want to put a Bugera PS1 in your collection.
Stadium tone at bedroom levels
Tube amp volume levels are an issue we all deal with. Our amps need to get to a sweet spot for them to perform their best. Unfortunately, those sweet spots can be prohibitively loud. Not with the Bugera PS1 passive power attenuator. You're able to send your tube amp's full power signal into the PS1, while taming the volume to a whisper without affecting your tone.
Miked tone without the microphone
The Bugera PS1 comes complete with a speaker-cabinet-emulated XLR direct output. This means, by running a standard XLR cable from this output directly to your console, you can record or perform with the sound of a well-recorded speaker cabinet without having a microphone onstage. Sweetwater players find this incredibly useful for effortlessly recording great tones.
Works great with impulse responses
Around back, you'll also find a 1/4" line output that does not offer speaker emulation. Recording guitarists who often work with impulse response emulations will love this feature. You'll send the direct tone of your amp's power section to your console or interface. Then you can pull up your favorite speaker or cab impulse response in your DAW to dial in your tone to perfection — all without a screaming guitar cab waking the neighbors.
