\t\t\t\t\tReactor 100 + optional footswitch<\/p>\n
Positive Grid announces the REACTOR Intelligent Guitar Amplifier, a 1\u00d712\u201d electric guitar combo amplifier (50W and 100W models) with a new approach to amplification that builds tone from the ground up.<\/p>\n
REACTOR is powered by Amp Intelligence\u2122\u2014 a new type of sound engine that builds guitar tone on demand. It enables players to go from idea to a finished, playable sound in seconds. Instead of searching through tone presets or manually dialing in sounds, players can describe a tone, upload a recording, or share an image. REACTOR responds by building a complete signal chain or even a custom amp in real time, delivering a full, rich sound that feels dynamic at any volume.<\/p>\n
REACTOR also provides flexible tools for shaping tone. The amp\u2019s top panel features a full array of controls for fast adjustments, while its exclusive mod switches and a dedicated app provide deeper tone design options.<\/p>\n
As a performance amp, REACTOR combines a powerful, high-volume 1\u00d712\u201d platform with selectable wattage and professional connectivity, enabling it to move easily from rehearsals and live performance to home practice and recording.<\/p>\n
The optional REACTOR Control footswitch enables hands-free performance control.<\/p>\n
Amp Intelligence\u2122
At the core of REACTOR is Amp Intelligence, a tone engine built to understand how great amplifiers actually work.<\/p>\n
REACTOR\u2019s Amp Intelligence tone engine decoded over 200 amp designs at the circuit level \u2014 gain stages, transformers, bias points, harmonic response \u2014 capturing the behavioral DNA of the most legendary amps ever built. So every tone it builds is grounded in how great amp designs actually work. The result is tone that\u2019s dynamic, alive, and responsive to every note played. Any tone imaginable can be delivered on demand, from the familiar to never-before-heard.<\/p>\n
Tone Creation On Demand
With most amps, players are limited to fixed presets or manually adjusting settings to get close to their desired sound. REACTOR changes the rules. Guitarists describe the tone they want and REACTOR delivers a full, rich, playable tone.<\/p>\n
The Creator Hub in REACTOR\u2019s dedicated app lets guitarists build tones \u2013 whether a familiar favorite or something completely new \u2013 in one of three ways:<\/p>\n
\u2022Text \u2192 Tone: Describe an artist, sound or idea; literal or abstract.
\u2022Image \u2192 Tone: Snap or upload a photo of gear, an object, a selfie or anything that inspires sound.
\u2022Audio \u2192 Tone: Upload an audio file or screen recording of anything.<\/p>\n
Each input results in a complete signal chain, built in real time. Players can refine tones through simple instructions, or by hands-on control using the amp\u2019s top panel, or by dragging any of the onboard effects within the app\u2019s visual signal chain.<\/p>\n
Users can also start with one of 24 included amp models. Or, they can ask REACTOR to build a custom amp, whether to recreate a favorite or to design something entirely new that doesn\u2019t yet exist.<\/p>\n
The app can store the amps and tones players create, building a personal library. Community-created tones and amps are also accessible online via ToneCloud.<\/p>\n
Stage Tone. Any Volume.
Most amplifiers lose depth and character when played at lower volumes. REACTOR is designed to sound like itself wherever it\u2019s used. Selectable wattage (1W, 25W or full power) maintains full, present tone at any level, whether at home, in the studio, or on stage. A custom 12\u201d speaker in a wood cabinet delivers the warmth and projection expected from a performance amp, even at lower volumes.<\/p>\n
Classic Control. Modern Amp Mods.
A tactile top panel offers the immediacy of classic knobs for quick adjustments (gain, EQ, reverb, volume); an amp knob to audition a variety of amps in any signal chain; an effects section; and eight user-saveable, onboard preset slots.<\/p>\n
Two exclusive mod switches powered by Amp Intelligence extend tonal control further:<\/p>\n
\u2022HEAT \u2013 adjust feel and harmonics without significantly changing volume.
\u2022PUSH \/ SMOOTH \u2013 move between cutting lead presence for soloing and a warmer, rounder response for playing rhythm guitar.<\/p>\n
Complete Rig Integration
REACTOR is built to integrate into any setup with comprehensive I\/O:<\/p>\n
\u2022USB-C direct recording
\u2022Line out with cabinet simulation
\u2022FX loop
\u2022Power amp input
\u2022Bluetooth\u00ae audio and app control
\u2022MIDI input
\u2022Headphone output<\/p>\n
The optional REACTOR Control footswitch adds hands-free control with six switches, expression pedal support, and wired or wireless operation.<\/p>\n
It Remembers
REACTOR includes Tone Memory that remembers how players build and refine tone. Over time, each session starts closer to the intended tone and REACTOR evolves into an amp that reflects the player\u2019s sound and feels distinctly their own.<\/p>\n
