Switched to Voice I, the DP40 is distinctly American, with a relatively flat frequency response. Switching to Voice II transports you across the Atlantic for the biting midrange that’s the hallmark of traditional British amp tones. And the tone shaping doesn’t stop there! The DP40 offers Bass, Middle, and Treble controls, and a Mid Kick that works in conjunction with the Middle control to aggressively push the midrange, which is extremely helpful when you want overdriven tones to leap to the fore of a mix.High-quality series effects loop If you use time-based effects, you'll value the DP40's high-quality series effects loop — a feature that many vintage-style amps lack. Pro tip: the DP40's post-phase-inverter master volume design requires different gain staging than most modern amplifiers. Hence, the guitarists here at Sweetwater have found that it's easy to overload your effects. The solution? Lower your mix and output levels. This will ensure squeaky-clean modulation, delay repeats, and reverb tails. That said, the loop stays completely out of the circuit when bypassed, ensuring ultra-pure tone if you're not using it. So, if you're a plug-straight-into-the-amp player, you won't be plagued by any unwanted tone suckage.Victory Amplifiers: cutting-edge designs for modern players Established in England in 2013, Victory Amplifiers has provided countless artists like James Bay, Richie Kotzen, Rabea Massaad, and Guthrie Govan with elite-quality amplifiers to bring out the best in their respective sounds.
