The perfect amp for multi-instrumentalists

No more having to take multiple amps to a gig so you can play different instruments. No more having to put up with so-so tones if you only use one amp. The multi-instrument-friendly Peavey Vypyr VIP (Variable Instrument Performance) 2 modeling amp contains models of electric, acoustic, and bass amplifiers. The new Variable Instrument Input changes the gain structure and input sensitivity based on what instrument you use. The entire Vypyr VIP series also features the easy-to-use Peavey WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) interface. No more guessing where your knobs are set when you switch presets; each knob is surrounded by LEDs that indicate their setting.

Versatile effects for professional sounds

The fully loaded Vypyr VIP 2 features 25 effects with parameter controls. Effects include chorus, wah, compression, compression/chorus, flanger, octaver, tremolo, rotary speaker, reverb, and delay with tap tempo. The built-in tuner helps you keep in tune with a quick glance at your amp. The Vypyr VIP 2 goes into new territory by offering instrument models. Turn your electric guitar into an acoustic, 12-string, resonator, 7-string, bass, baritone guitar, and more.

Heart of the Vypyr

Peavey Vypyr VIP amplifiers are based on powerful 32-bit floating-point SHARC processors that enable highly detailed, accurate modeling as well as vastly enhanced flexibility and features. The Vypyr VIP amps also give you great, controllable tone, thanks to Peavey's TransTube technology in the preamp and power amp sections.

Built-in USB interface for recording

The Peavey Vypyr VIP 2 modeling amp also acts as its own computer audio interface with a built-in, studio-quality USB 2.0 output on most models that is recognized by computers as an audio device. Just fire up your favorite recording software and start laying down tracks. You can also use it to edit presets via the Vypyr Edit Graphic User Interface or to install firmware updates.
