Laney A-Solo

The Laney A-Solo is a compact, portable 60-watt acoustic combo that is a good choice for a wide range of acoustic instruments - from acoustic guitars and basses to harps, cellos, accordions, etc. It offers two fully independent channels with XLR/6.3 mm jack input combo connectors with phantom power capability. Its services will thus be appreciated by songwriters, buskers, two acoustic instrument players or musicians for whom the combo allows to combine the signal from the pickups with the acoustic sound picked up by the microphone.

A powerful Class D amplifier and a wide-band eight-inch speaker fully compensate for the smaller size of the unit, providing ample drive in a pleasantly clear sound. The main panel offers separate controls for each of the channels in the form of a three-band EQ complemented by a Shape button for brightening the sound, i.e. highlighting the highs, Level controls for adjusting the input signal level, built-in Reverb and Chorus effects (the Reverb controls are used to adjust the level of both effects) and a shared Master Volume control. You'll be pleased with the handy Anti-Feedback functions for suppressing the feedback effect (a common accompaniment when voicing aria acoustic instruments), Phase for reversing the phase, or the Mute option, which mutes the signal of both channels (not the line input and effects loop).

The rear panel offers a balanced DI XLR output for direct connection of the instrument to a mixer or recording device with optional grounding and Pre/Post EQ selection, an effects loop for external effects/effects unit integration, an input for the FS-2 Mini footswitch (not included), a headphone output, an Aux In input for external audio sources, and a Cabinet EQ switch with four preset audio modes. You will appreciate this feature depending on the nature of the environment, acoustic characteristics and the purpose of use at the time.

The unit can be powered by the included 24V DC adapter.
