Isolate instruments in real time with Beam Moises
The Blackstar Beam app now features Moises real-time stem separation, giving Beam Solo and Beam Mini users a powerful new way to practice and play along with their favourite music.
Stream or play virtually any song from your device and isolate or remove the guitar in real time. Mute the original guitar to play the part yourself, or isolate it to hear every detail while learning riffs, solos and techniques.
Simple volume sliders also let you reduce vocals and other instruments to 25% or isolate them completely, giving you greater control over the mix without complicated editing or setup.
Classic tone, perfected from experience
Designed in Northampton, Ampton software amps fuse decades of valve and digital expertise with meticulous optimisation. Built on rare reference amps and refined algorithms, they deliver unmatched authenticity and the true “in the room” experience.
Your effects on SpeedDial
XpressFX instantly adjusts the intensity of all your effects using the SpeedDial — intuitive control for fast and easy sound shaping.
'In The Room' experience
Experience the immersive sound and feel of being stood next to a real amplifier. Blackstar's unique ‘In The Room’ tech brings the raw power of an amp straight into your headphones, making you feel like you’re standing right in front of it.
Your voice, your room.
Experience your guitar and vocals in perfect harmony using a headset mic, creating a rich, immersive sound right in your headphones.
Supports NAM A2 natively, powered by TONE3000
Through a free firmware update, Beam Solo now supports Neural Amp Modeler A2 captures natively, powered by TONE3000. This makes it the world's first headphone amp to run NAM directly on-device.
You don't need a computer, DAW or plugin. Simply plug in your guitar, open the Beam app and load authentic Neural Amp Modeler captures from the TONE3000 library. Every time you use Beam Solo, you're connecting to TONE3000's vast and constantly expanding library of community-created tones.
Neural Amp Modeler is widely regarded as one of the most accurate amp modelling technologies available, nailing the sound, feel and dynamic response of real analogue gear, from vintage clean amps to boutique high-gain rigs.
