In honoring the tradition of the original, MXR’s Rockman X100 is built around a complex compression circuit tasked with keeping the signal clear, whether the mode is clean or dirty. Directly tied to the Input Gain, the circuit is tuned for a slow release when a clean mode is activated and a fast release on dirty modes. The result is a concentrated force of sound that cuts through both live and studio mixes. Key Features:
Pedal-sized revival of Tom Scholz’s 1982 Rockman X100, the secret studio weapon that defined the textured guitar tone of '80s arena rock
2 clean and 2 dirty tone presets, identical to the original headphone amp
Dedicated volume and input gain sliders provide hands-on tonal control
A complex compression circuit provides dynamic and intuitive release

Multiple advanced features, including off-board switching and stereo mode
100 watts of clean-to-dirty power in a slim, light, 2-channel, tour-ready design that's as easy on the billfold as your back.
The 2-channel, Tour Baby guitar amp is incredibly versatile in a variety of playing situations. The onboard studio grade VCA compressor of Tour Baby’s refined clean channel, offers pristine clean tones with active or passive pickups. It provides a consistent dynamic range and low noise in extreme settings without the need for separate pedals. It includes precise bass and treble EQ controls.
The naturally voiced dirty channel of this tone machine allows players to easily get that sought after ‘point of breakup’ sound . A custom voiced presence control and powerful 3-band EQ control means the Tour Baby’s tone can be shaped to cut-through the mix. Add to that a footswitchable volume control, that provides a stage-friendly volume boost option for live applications.
