The NEW WIZARD II is a revolutionary new guitar amp
A compact 2 channel tube guitar amplifier with IR speaker simulation and internal speaker load for standalone use. The wizard is a fully programmable tube guitar amp with motor knobs. It has 32 memory locations in which you can save your favorite sounds and switch between the presets with the rotary encoder or via midi. The speaker simulator comes with my favorite 16 cabs. In addition, it’s possible to upload your own favorite speaker impuls responses with the matching computer app (Mac and Windows). This amp gives you the sound and ease of use of a classic tube guitar amp, but with the compactness and multi-functionality of a modeling amp.

Frequently asked questions
- Is the Wizard available for US voltage 115V?
Yes , it is possible to make two different versions, 115VAC ( US ) and 230VAC
- Is it possible to use the wizard “stand -alone” without any other equipment?
No, there is no internal speaker in this amp.
Stand alone in this context means that you could use the amp without a traditional guitar speaker and go directly to a PA or recording system , skipping the guitar cab and microphones.
So to hear this amp you at least some sort of speaker ( traditional guitar speaker or Full range Hifi, PA or recording system)
If you have a hifi system at home , you could connect the DI to that system by a XLR to cinch cable.
- Is there a footswitch for the wizard?
There is no special wizard footswitch. You can use any midi footswitch that you like.
It depends on your needs. If you want to switch pedals there are some nice options from Boss. ( EC8 )
- Can I use the Di out together with a speaker cab?
Yes , the DI out is a mirror of the speaker out.
- What is the impedance of the matching speaker cab?
The Matching speaker cab is 8 Ohm.
