MOSFET Technology Delivers Authentic Tube Tones

Bugera redefine the solid-state bass tone, equipping the BXD15 with a revolutionary high-voltage MOSFET preamplifier. The MOSFET preamp provides players with the same feel, tone, and immense dynamics as an authentic tube amp, delivering the vintage tones players sought after. The extremely versatile and responsive preamp provides a crystal clear, faithful reproduction of a tube, offering plenty of headroom to let the dynamics of your playing be heard.

Studio Grade Compression

The amplifier is equipped with studio grade compression, ensuring players can create incredible soundscapes without losing any of the dynamics or subtlety at high volumes. The compressor is based on classic and famous studio equipment from the 70s, creating a transparent and musical compressor which allows the full dynamics of your playing to shine through any mix. Increasing sustain and gently smoothing out any signal peaks, the inbuilt compressor lets you unleash powerfully impact-laden bass lines.

Dynamizer Technology

The Dynamizer technology is designed to add incredible detail and a powerfully fat punch to their amps. Bugera’s dynamizer technology integrates what is known as parallel compression, a dynamic range compression technique used as a secret weapon in high-end sound recording and mixing. This technique mixes a dry or lightly compressed signal with a heavily compressed version, reducing the dynamic range by bringing up the softest sounds to add audible detail.
