Description
Darkglass struggled to imagine music’s future. Resting uncertain of what it will carry, but always enthusiastic about the endless potentials, and yet…
The ability and the big privilege to deploy a solution that will serve justice to what they consider great music gear was unthought of. Because in the end, their goal is mostly about accepting a challenge and being inspired by it.
Darkglass always craved a clean head. A device that is “out of the box” an amplifier without added effects. Uncomplicated, intuitive, and for each one of us to be able to unveil the layer of sophistication that better serves our projects and skills. The Exponent is a new concept they call Powered Platform: once connected turns into a multi-effect, with fully programmable and presettable signal chains with all the components a professional bassist requires.
They have been working on this machine for more than 2 years and it is the perfect outcome of every trick we learned from our humble beginnings: The Exponent 500 !
From all stance this is the most advanced product they ever created: Mechanically, electronically, and with an ever-growing DSP library that has compressors, distortions, modulation, preamps, Impulse Responses and more.
With its audio interface capabilities and 500W of loud, ultra-clean power, the Exponent is an extremely capable solution for every context, all packed in a gorgeous, compact and light housing for maximum portability.

Properties
- Speaker Output
- Use this connector to connect the amplifier to your cabinet. The SpeakON Combo jack allows for SpeakON or ¼” speaker cable operation. The minimum load impedance is 4 Ω. Exponent 500 can be operated without a cabinet.
WARNING: Do not use an instrument cable with this jack. Using an instrument cable can damage your amplifier.
- Effects send
Use this output to send the signal to your outboard gear.
- Effects return
Use this input for the signal from your outboard gear.
- Headphone Output
The 1/4" stereo headphone output handles headphones with an impedance of 16 - 600 ohms. Connect your headphones and control the output level with the master volume. The headphone output has an output impedance of <1 Ω and a maximum output level of 13.3 dBu (3.6 Vrms).
- XLR direct output
Direct output signal unaffected by master volume. The maximum output level before clipping is 2.2 dBu (1 Vrms).
- Ground Lift
Use this control to lift the ground of the XLR output. If you are experiencing ground noise in your DI signal, try changing this control.
- MIDI In
Standard DIN connector. Use the 7-pin MIDI connector only with the Darkglass MIDI footswitch, and use a 5-pin connector with other MIDI equipment.
- USB
The USB-C port unlocks Exponent 500’s USB audio interface capabilities and allows for software updates via the Darkglass Suite. USB MIDI In/Out is also supported.
- AC Socket
- Connect mains power to the amplifier. There is a voltage selector for 100-120 / 200-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz.
- Weight: 1.650kg
- Height: 175mm
- Width: 210mm
- Depth: 60mm
