Blackstar Beam Mini is a compact desktop amp built for players who want inspiring tone without being tied to a traditional setup. Drawing on decades of Blackstar amp design and advanced component-level digital modelling, Beam Mini delivers the dynamic feel and response of a real valve amp in a portable, take-anywhere format. With immersive Super Wide Stereo sound, best-in-class guitar tones and powerful Bluetooth audio playback, it’s designed to sound far bigger than its size suggests.
 
From authentic amp models and studio-grade effects to Neural Amp Modeler compatibility, Beam Mini opens the door to an enormous range of tones. Play silently with headphones using Blackstar’s 'In the Room' technology, jam along to high-quality Bluetooth tracks, or use it as a portable speaker on the move. With intuitive SpeedDial control, a deep editing app, and a rugged, weather-resistant design, Beam Mini is a powerful creative tool for practice, writing, recording and casual play anywhere inspiration strikes.
Acoustically engineered immersive sound
The Beam Mini is designed to deliver a genuinely room-filling sound despite its compact size. A sealed, acoustically tuned cabinet houses two full-range drivers and two passive bass radiators, working together with Blackstar’s Super Wide Stereo technology to create an expansive, immersive listening experience. Whether you’re playing guitar or streaming music over Bluetooth, the sound is powerful, detailed and surprisingly full, making it ideal for bedroom practice, desktop use or portable playback without the thin, boxy tone often associated with small amps.
Component-level modelling and NAM compatibility
At the heart of Beam Mini is advanced component-level modelling that recreates the behaviour and feel of real valve amp circuits. The onboard selection includes authentic Blackstar designs alongside recreations of iconic amps, plus dedicated bass and acoustic voices. Beam Mini is also the first compact guitar amp to support Neural Amp Modeler captures, allowing you to load highly accurate snapshots of real amps and rigs and experience the dynamic response serious players expect.
Intuitive control with deep app integration
Beam Mini balances immediate hands-on control with powerful app-based editing. The intuitive SpeedDial interface and responsive BEAM light display let you quickly adjust tones without reaching for your phone, perfect for capturing ideas fast. When you want to go deeper, the BEAM app unlocks a huge range of amps, cabinets, microphones and effects, alongside pro-level tools like a tuner, metronome and detailed signal routing, all presented in a clean, easy-to-use layout.
Portable, connected and built for modern players
Designed for life on the move, the Beam Mini features a rechargeable battery offering over 18 hours of use, plus Bluetooth connectivity for wireless playback and jamming. Its IP66-rated dust-tight and weather-resistant construction makes it suitable for indoor and outdoor use alike. Add in headset mic support, community patch sharing, artist-created tones and patented ISF control, and Beam Mini becomes a versatile, modern practice and creative solution built around how today’s musicians actually play.
