Setting up Torpedo Wall of Sound

Please note that some ampliﬁers or preampliﬁers have a "frequency

compensated" output. Such output embeds a small circuit to emu-

late a miked speaker. Please do not use this output, or deactivate the

speaker emulation if possible, to get the best of your Torpedo Wall of

Sound software.

2 Guitar or bass preampliﬁer 4 PC/MAC with Torpedo Wall of Sound 6 Guitar or bass ampliﬁer

Please keep in mind that the overall quality of the total sound chain is

always determined by its weakest component. The best performance

will be achieved with a perfect adaptation (impedance, level...) of

your preamp or Torpedo Reload’s output signal to your audio interface.

Your guitar or bass preampliﬁer may not deliver true line-level signals

and may use either line, microphone, or "something in-between" sig-

nals. Make sure the signal you put in the simulation is the best one

possible so you get the most out of your Torpedo Wall of Sound .

3 Using Torpedo Wall of Sound with a software or hardware ampliﬁer

emulator

You may want to use Torpedo Wall of Sound in order to replace the speaker simulation of a plug-in or

hardware ampliﬁer emulator. This may be a good idea, if you keep in mind the two cases you may

encounter and follow our recommendation:
