Floor mounted 60 W guitar amplifier
Description
Laney IRF-LOUDPEDAL Floor-Mounted 60W Guitar Amplifier
The IRF-LOUDPEDAL puts full amplifier control underfoot—ideal for studio and mobile recording setups where space and signal chain integration matter. At just 2.3 lbs and under 6 inches wide, its dual-channel architecture and dual gain/volume controls let you access clean and driven tones without breaking your recording workflow or pedalboard layout. Its compact floor footprint makes it a natural fit for home studios, live tracking rigs, and any session where you need amp character from a footpedal-accessible platform.
Tone & Recording Character
Dual channels with independent character switching—Clean, Rhythm, and Lead modes on Channel 1, and Natural, Bright, and Dark voicings on Channel 2—let you capture distinct tonal personalities in a single session. The 3-band passive EQ (Bass, Middle, Treble) paired with pre-boost activation gives you surgical tone shaping at your feet, while 60W RMS output supplies enough headroom for full-range monitoring, direct recording, or blended amp-in-room capture without losing dynamics or clarity.
Studio Integration & Direct Workflow
Balanced XLR DI out with emulation sends your tone directly to audio interfaces or mixing consoles—eliminating the need for mic'd amp setup in confined spaces. FX send and return loops let you integrate external reverb, delay, or modulation processors into your signal chain seamlessly. The combination of 1/4" instrument input, 3.5mm aux jack, speaker output, and 3.5mm headphones out handles silent recording sessions, cue mixes, secondary instrument sources, and full monitoring in one compact unit—essential for home studio efficiency and multi-take recording scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in the box and what do I need to connect it?
The unit ships as a floor-mounted amp ready to integrate into a pedalboard. You'll need a guitar cable into the 1/4" input, a speaker cab or powered monitor connected to the speaker output, and XLR cables if you want to send a direct feed to your mixing console or audio interface. Headphones can plug into the 3.5mm headphones jack for silent practice.
Is this amp suitable for live performance in larger venues?
The 60W RMS output is designed for small-venue performance, pedalboard-integrated rigs, and studio use. Larger venues or high-volume environments requiring bigger amplification are outside its intended scope; consider a larger amp or powered PA system for those applications.
Can I use this in the studio and also live?
Yes. The balanced XLR DI output with emulation feeds directly into recording interfaces for tracking, while the FX loops, dual channels, and headphone out support silent practice and mixing workflows. The same unit works equally well at a gig with a powered monitor or small cab.
What skill level do I need to use this amp effectively?
This amp is built for intermediate to advanced and professional players who understand pedalboard integration, EQ shaping, and live rig workflow. Beginners may find the dual-channel architecture and extensive controls less intuitive than a straightforward guitar combo.
How does the dual-channel system work?
Channel 1 offers Clean, Rhythm, and Lead modes, while Channel 2 delivers Natural, Bright, and Dark voicings. Each channel has independent gain and volume controls, allowing you to switch between distinct tones on the fly via the channel select switch. A 3-band passive EQ and pre-boost switch fine-tune the character of either channel.
