These powerful, rugged amps are suitable for both stage and studio use, and feature an XLR line output and a 4-channel USB recording interface. You'll also find custom amplifier circuitry for each amp type, a dedicated reverb section with six reverb types, 18 additional effects, an effects loop, a power amp input for using the Catalyst as a powered speaker , MIDI capabilities and power attenuation options for playing at any volume.
