Manufacturer and sound concept

With the BEAM Mini, BLACKSTAR relies on a concept that combines classic amplifier ideas with modern digital control. All typical BLACKSTAR sounds are on board, supplemented for the first time by classic amp models. The new Ampton series was developed by the most experienced amp design team in the industry and delivers the authentic power, tone and feel of legendary amps. The result is a guitar sound that is designed to be particularly impressive from a compact housing.

As a Bluetooth speaker, the Blackstar Beam Mini 2x12W electric guitar combo has also been designed for high-quality audio reproduction. The playback was compared with market-leading consumer speakers and optimized to best-in-class level. A closed cabinet, side-firing passive radiators and a true stereo speaker configuration ensure a rich and balanced sound. This makes the BEAM Mini suitable not only as a guitar amplifier, but also for everyday music playback.

Technical details of the Blackstar Beam Mini 2x12W electric guitar combo

The dynamic light beam of the BEAM Mini displays sound changes in real time and thus supports direct, visual feedback when setting up and playing. Photorealistic amps, effects and presets are available via the BLACKSTAR BEAM app. The app is complemented by community sharing, artist presets and YouTube integration. A tuner is also on board, so that important functions for practicing, sound design and performance are integrated directly into the system.

A special feature is the native support for Tone3000 NAM captures. This gives guitarists access to the world's largest sound library. The Beam Mini can load over 200,000 NAM profiles created by the community, offering a particularly wide variety of sounds within this type of product. This feature makes the Blackstar Beam Mini 2x12W electric guitar combo interesting for anyone who wants to try out many different sounds and switch flexibly between different sound characters.

App integration, practicing and recording

The BEAM Mini also integrates Moises AI stem separation, which can be used to isolate or remove instruments from any song. This feature works for all instruments and opens up new possibilities for musicians to practice, learn and play along to their favorite songs. Importantly, Moise's AI will not be available at launch, but will be added in a future update.

For creative applications, the Blackstar Beam Mini 2x12W electric guitar combo also offers a vocal recording function. It is the only desktop amp with this feature, making it suitable for simultaneous guitar and vocal recording. This is particularly practical if you want to record ideas easily without having to set up a complex setup. Ableton Live Lite is also included, allowing the BEAM Mini to be integrated into a modern production and recording process.
