Frequently Asked Questions
It's far more accurate and 'clean' than a traditional cabinet, lacking the natural speaker breakup and coloration. Think of it as a high-end monitor, not a vintage cab.
While technically possible, it's not ideal; the FR-12 is designed for digital signals and might not complement a tube amp's character effectively.
The EQ is useful for basic adjustments, but the high-frequency cut control is particularly valuable for taming harsh digital amp models.
