Darkglass Electronics Microtubes 900 V2. 900w All analog bass amp head.


Three years ago Darkglass Electronics released it’s first amplifier, the Microtubes 900. Its unusual features, and design embodied the Darkglass ethos like none of our previous products. It was an uncompromising amplifier, incredibly versatile, and unapologetically loud. Now, a thousand days after the first Microtubes 900 saw the light of day, we are proud to announce the next step in its evolution, the Microtubes 900 v2

With enhanced durability, improved equalizer, studio-grade compression, impulse response cabinet emulation, and MIDI control, the Microtubes 900 v2 features all the options the modern, professional bassist needs in a compact, sleek, and loud format.

The Intelligent Footswitch is an intuitive yet versatile accessory for your Microtubes 900v2. One tap will engage and disengage the Microtubes Engine, while holding for 3 seconds will Mute the amplifier. It is connected to the head via a standard 1/4" cable and it's powered by a microcontroller that sends commands to the head using a proprietary communication protocol.

Front Controls & Features

Passive/Active

Switch from passive to active mode. Some active basses can have a hotter signal output which can make the amp distort early (feel free to use it on Passive move even with active basses if such additional distortion is desired).

Microtubes

Turns on or off the Microtubes Engine to add natural compression, organic harmonic enhancement, and saturation ranging from mild overdrive to high gain bass rage.
The Microtubes Engine operates before the clean section (you can therefore use the 4 Band Active EQ for additional tone shaping in addition to the Tone knob described below).

Drive

Controls the amount of distortion that the Microtubes Engine will deliver. It will change from a soft warm overdrive to a massive modern distorted tone.

Tone

Controls the high harmonic content of the Microtubes Engine via a variable low pass filter: crank it up for additional attack and definition or dim it down for a smoother sound. This is handy if running bright clean EQ settings or cabinets with tweeters.

Level

Controls the Microtubes Engine’s output volume.

Blend

Mixes between the Clean signal and the Distortion signal (Microtubes Engine).

B3K/VMT

Selects between two overdrive voicings: B3K mode will deliver an aggressive, percussive sound while the VMT will bring up the mids for a warmer, more neutral character.

Gain

Changes the volume of the signal the Active 4 Band EQ. You can set it low prior to ensuring the cleanest operation possible or set it higher for more aggressive growl.

Bass

+-12dB at 80Hz. Changes the low content of the signal.

Low Mids

+-12dB of the selected frequency via the LOW MIDS ƒ switch (described below). Changes the lower mid content of the signal.

Low Mids 

Use this switch to change the frequency of the low mid band from 250Hz, 500Hz or 1kHZ.

Hi Mids

+-12dB of the selected frequency via the HI MIDS ƒ switch (described below). Changes the higher mid content of the signal.

Hi Mids 

Use this switch to change the frequency of the hi mid band from 750Hz, 1.5kHz and 3kHZ.

Treble

+-12dB at 5kHz. Changes the high content of the signal.

Master

Controls the overall volume of the amplifier.

Mute

Mutes the amplifier.
