Next-level tone shaping
At the heart of the BEAM Solo is Blackstar’s best-in-class app for iOS and Android. It gives you instant access to photo-realistic amp heads, cabs, mics, and effects, plus the ability to share and download patches with an active online community. Whether you’re chasing searing high-gain tones, sparkling cleans, or lush modulation, everything is editable and shareable in seconds.
Designed for total convenience
The BEAM Solo makes tweaking simple. The dynamic light beam offers instant visual feedback, while the SpeedDial wheel makes adjusting gain, EQ, FX, and volume quick and intuitive. XpressFX takes this further, letting you reshape your effect chain with a twist of the dial. Onboard extras like a tuner and metronome keep your practice sharp, while Bluetooth connectivity doubles it as a wireless speaker and playback device.
