TransTube analog distortion
The amp uses analog distortion for its overdrive sounds, leaving digital processing available for effects.

Independent shopping perspective
Peavey’s Vypyr X1 puts a 20-watt, 1x8 modeling combo at the center of a compact multi-guitar setup. Its input is designed for electric, acoustic, and bass guitars, so changing instruments does not require changing amplifiers. TransTube analog distortion handles the overdrive section while the processor remains available for effects, with up to five running at once. Thirty-six amp models, 12 stompbox effects, and a front-panel looper give home recording, rehearsal, and stage setups plenty to work with.
