Blackstar ID:X 100

Blackstar's Latest High-Performance Digital Combos!

The IDX:50 and IDX:100 amps are engineered to deliver exceptional tones and versatility in a compact package. The IDX combos offer the familiar, intuitive controls of a traditional amp, but thanks to their programmability they’re far more flexible. The Voice knob lets you call up six distinct voices — Clean Warm, Clean Bright, Crunch, Super Crunch, OD1 and OD2. Paired with Blackstar’s patented ISF control, you can sculpt sounds from American to British and everything between.

The amps also feature a Response function that lets you choose different tube emulations. The IDX:50 and IDX:100 include an integrated display for intuitive navigation and deep editing of effects. The amp's effects section contains over 35 Pre-FX, modulation effects, reverbs and delays — all selectable and editable directly on the amp. In short, the IDX series offers a wide palette of tones for players of every level thanks to its advanced technology.

A Younger, Better-Looking Model

ID:X simply outperforms the rest. It packs everything you love about classic amp tones plus the flexibility musicians need today. This next-generation DSP modeling amp is built for stage, studio and everything in between, delivering punchy sound, intuitive controls and a wealth of connectivity without holding you back.

Get a Little Attitude

With six outstanding voices — from crystal-clear cleans to Blackstar's signature high-gain tone — this is the most natural-sounding modeling amp available today. Use the 3-band EQ and the patented ISF control to dial your sound from British crunch to American power.

Precision at a Glance

The bright OLED display keeps everything in view and gives instant feedback. Pick from a huge range of legendary effects and tweak them easily — no menu diving or external gear required — right by hand. With the built-in on-screen tuner you're always ready to play.

The Blackstar team in Northampton, England, has more amp-design experience than most companies — and that know-how is at the heart of the brand-new ID:X.
