Laney Ironheart Foundry
The IRF-LoudPedal is designed to be the sonic centrepiece of your pedalboard setup. Based on Laney's acclaimed Ironheart series of guitar amplifiers, the IRF-LoudPedal is a 60-watt, twin-channel pedal amp with footswitchable boost, a 3-band passive EQ, an FX loop, and a speaker-emulated XLR out. All this, in a compact package that's no bigger than a standard double stompbox!
Laney's IRF-LoudPedal truly is a versatile tone engine that can be used in multiple different ways. Place it in front of your regular amp as a high-quality, two-channel gain stage that can do anything from a sweet clean boost to full-on, searing distortion. Or alternatively, you could use the IRF-LoudPedal directly into a passive cabinet on-stage or in a rehearsal room (like a traditional amp head) where it produces a whopping 60 watts of power! Using the Laney IRF-LoudPedal's onboard cab emulation is another method, which allows you to plug the unit directly into the PA or into your IEM system without even utilising a cabinet. You can also send great guitar tone directly into a DAW with headphones, while an Aux input makes practicing on the tour bus a total breeze!
Key Features
60 watts RMS offers plenty of volume and headroom.
2 independent, versatile channels.
CH1 with selectable Clean/Rhythm/Lead gain modes.
CH2 with selectable Bright, Natural and Dark voicings.
3-band passive EQ tone stack.
Switchable pre-boost with level control.
D.I. XLR out with switchable analogue speaker emulation.
Loudspeaker out to connect to speaker cabinet (compatible with minimum 8Ω).
Transformer isolated high-quality effects loop lets you plug in your favourite time-based and modulation pedals.
Aux input (3.5mm jack) to connect to audio playing device.
Headphone output for silent practice.
100-240V Universal Voltage power supply included (24V).
Channel 1 Gain Character Switch (GCS)
This feature allows for refined control of the distortion characteristics of the channel. Changing the GCS mode will affect how the drive stage reacts and responds. Each setting of the GCS has a sweet spot in which the effect is most noticeable. This tends to be at mid to higher gain levels:
Clean: Soft clipping is applied to the drive stage giving the least amount of compression and allowing for a more open tone.
Rhythm: This setting provides asymmetrical clipping, adding more distortion whilst retaining some clarity and dynamics.
Lead: Symmetrical clipping is applied, giving more aggressive distortion for a high-gain, compressed sound.
Channel 2 Tone Switch
Bright: Extends the high frequencies and slightly dulls the low-end.
Dark: Boosts the low-end frequencies adding some warmth to the tone whilst reducing the power of the higher frequencies.
Off: Middle setting results in no change to your signal from this switch.
3-Band EQ
The Laney IRF-LoudPedal's built-in passive EQ stack allows you to fine-tune your sound. As a starting point, 12 o'clock is the neutral setting for these and will provide you with the most even output.
Bass: Adjusts the strength of the low-end response of your output, for a deeper sound when turned clockwise.
Middle: Adjusts the strength of the mid-range response of your output, that when turned clockwise gives a fuller sound.
Treble: Adjusts the strength of the top-end response of your output. Turning clockwise will boost the brighter, higher notes.
The 3 EQs are all linked, meaning that no matter how you change them, you will always have a musical tone from the pedal. Feel free to experiment and find your favourite sound!
