The Behringer V-AMP 3 was a next-generation modeling guitar amplifier packed with 480 virtual combos and a built-in USB audio interface — a complete rig in a single, compact unit for guitarists who wanted to write, record, and perform without dragging stacks around. With studio-quality multi-effects and tap-tempo, it earned a loyal following among home-studio guitarists.

Why It Stood Out

• 4 all-new plus 28 improved amp models multiplied by 15 speaker cabinet simulations give you a total of 480 virtual combos
• USB audio interface included, featuring stereo I/O, optical S/PDIF out, direct monitoring and separate control for phones out
• No-latency guitar-to-PC recording edit and monitor your sound on your V-AMP 3 and record straight to your PC
• Studio quality multi-effects including reverb, chorus, flanger, phaser, rotary, auto-wah, echo, delay, compressor and various effects combinations
• 125 memory locations pre-arranged for many popular styles and embedded in the acclaimed intuitive V-AMP user interface
• Tap-tempo function and many other parameters directly accessible on the unit
• Presence control adjusts a high-frequency filter, simulating the negative feedback of tube amps
• Preamp bypass function allows use as a stereo effects processor without amp modeling
• Stereo Aux input lets you play along to a cue from your PC, CD, MP3 or drum computer for practice, teaching and home-recording applications
• Balanced stereo Line output can be configured for many recording and live applications
• Adjustable auto-chromatic tuner plus effective global configurations and equalization easily adopts the V-AMP 3 to any situation outside your home studio
• MIDI implementation includes program changes, control changes and SysEx, allowing complete MIDI remote control or automation with your preferred DAW

The V-AMP 3 is no longer in production. Existing owners can reach Music Tribe Care for warranty and legacy support. For a current solution, explore Behringer's latest modeling and amp-simulation products, which continue this tradition of accessible, all-in-one guitar tone for working players.
