Designed by the renowned amp guru, Dave Friedman, this pedal harnesses the power of impulse response technology, delivering a world of sonic possibilities. With its extensive library of cabinet and microphone simulations, it allows you to replicate the sound of iconic amplifiers and speaker combinations, all within a compact stompbox. Whether you're in the studio or on stage, the Friedman IR Pedal lets you access professional-grade tones with unparalleled convenience, making it an essential addition to any guitarist's rig. It's a tool that unlocks a universe of tonal creativity, right at your feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHigh Voltage Dual-Tube Direct Solution\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Friedman IR-X dual-channel tube preamp is an entire Friedman rig in a compact pedalboard-friendly package. Powered by two high-voltage 12AX7 preamp tubes, each channel delivers the harmonic richness and touch response of Dave Friedman’s finest designs. DSP IR cabinet\/power amp simulation sends a studio-quality mic’d-up tone to your DAW or Front-of-House.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAll-Tube Friedman Tone\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIR-X isn't simulating a Friedman tube preamp. It is one. While many available preamp pedals utilize tubes to 'warm up'  their digital or solid-state circuit, two glowing 12AX7 preamp tubes, running at a proper high voltage, are this pedal's beating heart. A genuine preamp in every way, IR-X delivers all the tone, response, gain characteristics, and harmonic complexity you expect from a Friedman design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eTwo Fully Independent Foot-Switchable Channels\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the famed Friedman flagship amps, channel one takes your tone from bluesy, British-voiced cleans to a muscular Plexi-style roar. Engage channel two for the Friedman signature higher-gain voice and all the percussive punch, note clarity and singing sustain that comes with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDual Independent Boosts\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth channels feature their own independent and highly tweakable boost circuits. This essentially gives you four channels, accessible with the tap of your toe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eImpulse Response Cabinet and Power Amp Simulation\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll great tube amps need a great speaker cabinet, and whether sending your signal straight to the board or silently playing through the onboard headphone output, IR-X gives you a selection of Dave Friedman’s favorite IRs. Select the IR per channel using the 3-way mini toggle switches or load your own quickly and easily via IR-X’s editing software. You can even disengage the onboard IRs entirely to use IR-X’s tube preamp with another IR loader.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIR-X Software Editor\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIR-X gives you astounding tonal control, but its included Friedman IR-X Editor software takes it to a new level. With it, you can tweak each channel’s power amp simulation via the thump and presence controls, load your favorite IRs, activate the Boost Lock feature, select loop ON\/OFF and save it all to 128 MIDI presets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-tube HIGH-VOLTAGE preamp - DI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x 12AX7 preamp tubes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo independent channels + boost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChannel 1 (Top channel) clean to gritty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChannel 2 (Bottom channel) high gain drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIDI programmable features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChannel select \/ boost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIR Select\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThump and Presence – three-way switch per channel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffects Loop On\/Off\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoost Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower amp simulation with software editable Presence and Thump (per channel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow latency Impulse Response cabinet simulation (bypassable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree position CAB\/IR select switch per channel (programmable via software)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 free Friedman IRs or load your own\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoost Volume and Gain controls (per channel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolume and Gain controls (per channel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull EQ consisting of Bass, Middle, Treble (per channel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-way Bright switch (Channel 1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-way Tight switch (Channel 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree multi-function foot switches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra-transparent series FX loop (bypassable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTRS balanced output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadphone output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIDI 5 pin standard connector and USB MIDI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB software editor - powered by SYNERGY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited 3-year Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions (Including Knobs): 5.5” (D) x 6.5” (W) x 2.3 (H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 1.5 lbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: Friedman Amps\u003cbr\u003eModel: IR-X\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I756330-GA9992511-1-WHXA\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 763815133560\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
