Press Release Text: Word DOC - RichTextFormat (RTF)

NAMM WINTER SESSION, ANAHEIM, CA, January 15, 2004 — ToneWorks is showing its latest personal modeling signal processors, Ampworks (for guitarists) and Ampworks Bass. Both feature models of the world’s most sought-after amps, cabinets, and effects, a knob-based interface that works like conventional analog amps, and a compact package. They provide easy, intuitive signal processing for recording or practice at an extremely affordable price point.

Ampworks delivers high-quality models of 11 popular Amps and 11 Cabinets. It also includes 9 independent effects plus Noise Reduction (for a total of 1210 unique sound combinations). Ampworks Bass provides 11 bass amp models and 10 bass cabinet models, plus 11 effects and noise reduction (1331 total sound combinations). In addition, both have 11 Amp/Cab/Effects presets, along with the ability to store 2 User Programs for instant recall.

Ampworks and Ampworks Bass have an easy-to-use interface, featuring three main dials for Amp, Cabinet, and Effects selection. Settings can be further adjusted with six independent amp controls including Gain, Volume, tone shaping, and an FX Depth control for adjusting the wet/dry mix.

A footswitch jack enables switching between the two User Programs and manual settings, or switching between one user program and bypass on/off. A front panel tap-tempo switch allows the user to easily lock into a given beat.

The units are housed in a sturdy chassis with metallic finish and LED readout. They run on either two AA batteries (included) or an optional AC adapter.

ToneWorks Ampworks and Ampworks Bass are currently available with respective U.S. MSRPs of $179 and $185.
