The latest series of Marshall Code guitar amplifiers feature special audio software, conceived and crafted together with the help of Swedish audio software developers Softube, that accurately replicates a number of classic Marshall amp, preamp and cabinet-generated sounds.
The Marshall Code series products are fully compatible with the new Marshall Gateway smartphone app for iOS and Android, making it possible to control the amplifier via Bluetooth and share presets with other Code users, besides wirelessly streaming audio through the amplifier's speaker or headphone jack.
