Combine all this with its customizable signal routing, state-of-the-art DSP, and versatile looping modes, the Ampero II represents the ultimate all-in-one apparatus, from solo performers and singer/songwriters to experimental ensembles and full-band fire starters. Once you’ve rocked the stage using the Ampero II’s myriad modeling capabilities, this device doubles in function as an 8-in, 8-out USB audio interface for streamlined studio recording!Overhauled foundations: lifelike sound never felt this real If we could describe the Ampero II in a word, it would be modular. Simulating hundreds of pedals, power amps, cabinets, and amplifiers, with comprehensive MIDI and expression capabilities complementing a slew of effects, looping, and series/parallel operation modes, Hotone pulled out all the stops in designing a bona fide next-gen powerhouse. To support this kaleidoscopic compendium of tone crafting, Hotone revamped the foundation of the Ampero II with a slew of cutting-edge tech, ensuring your keys, guitars, effects, and sounds are masterfully processed and preserved. Its tri-core — upgraded from the last-gen’s dual-core — DSP runs the Advanced CDCM HD (Comprehensive Dynamic Circuit Modeling High Definition) and F.I.R.E. (Field Impulse Response Enhancement) modeling systems. Decades of field research and laboratory development collide with these systems, armed with the abilities to capture the most-nuanced aberrations of sound and feel, reproducing them via dynamic object modeling that transcends realism, evolving and delivering an unparalleled soundfield. Add in the state-of-the-art ESS Sabre independent AD/DA converters, and your striking sonics are impeccably defined up to an expanded maximum dynamic range of 127dB, thanks to crystalline 24-bit/44.1kHz processing.Traverse limitless tone-crafting terrain: amps, pedals, cabs, and beyond Hotone’s humility in calling the Ampero II an “amp modeler and effects processor” isn’t inaccurate, per se, but you’d be forgiven for expecting to see this seismic stompbox heading down the next Fashion Week’s main-stage runway, for all the modeling it does. Compared to its first-gen forefathers, the Ampero II nearly doubles the number of effects types, adding new sound-crafting capabilities through across-the-board expansions to every sector. What’s more, Hotone redesigned its cabinet-mic algorithm, following advanced studio-recording research that amplifies accuracy multifold. 90 Amp Models: Decades of iconic, innovative, and imaginative amps have been meticulously modeled to cover every shade of clean, dirty, dynamic, and distinctive foundational sounds. 68 Cab Models: Adding to the first-gen’s 60 included cabs, the Ampero II covers an immense range of cab models that span virtually every configuration of speaker, style, and substance for acoustic and electric guitars and basses. 100+ Pedal Models: Across the decades, guitars, basses, keyboards, synths, and drum machines have been bolstered by pedals to elicit genre-defining sounds and iconic performances. With the Ampero II, immensely malleable effects abound, just waiting to be explored. Power Amp: Painstakingly emulated, the power amp section runs independently of the pedal’s amp-adjacent processing with seven iconic tube styles complementing a slew of depth, presence, voltage, response, and feedback controls that let you dial in nearly any tone. Pre Amp: Overhauled from its last-gen iteration, dozens of high-fidelity preamp simulations provide access to customizable Clean, Drive, Hi Gain, Bass, and Acoustic models, ensuring your signal chain is honed to meet your carefully crafted tones.Impeccable IRs abound: revamped and ready to rock For all the tone crafting and aural excavation that can be done with any instrument, your sum sound is influenced and colored by the space in which it resides or is recorded. Hotone hot-rodded the Ampero II to supercharge its IR (Impulse Response) processing, doubling its sampling points to a staggering 2,048 from the previous generation. Multitudes of cabinets, spaces, studios, and acoustic profiles have been captured with exacting precision, while Celestion Digital supplies IRs for 20 of Celestion’s most-lauded speakers. If you’re feeling a different sound, the dedicated IR-loading module includes third-party IR support for up to 50 custom IR slots.Enhanced effects: multilayered sculpting of time, texture, tone, and timbre In addition to the Ampero II’s slew of pedal emulations, Hotone has crafted more than 60 original effects to be used with its revamped garrison of effects-module processing. Where prior Ampero entries accommodated nine types of fixed effects modules that were capped at nine simultaneous uses, the Ampero II grows to support 16 types of effects modules, all of which can be freely combined, maxing out at 12 coextensive modules at a time. Moreover, the dual-effects chain offers wider variation through its untethered modularity and multiple series and parallel signal-routing tools. Comprehensive modulation effects comprising myriad shades of chorus, flanger, vibrato, phaser, tremolo, rotary, expand, and slow-attack types are joined by heaps of customizable delay and reverb tools, turning time into just another element of your sound to sculpt. Plus, the Ampero II is outfitted with plenty of dynamics and frequency utilities, including boost, noise gate, three styles of filtering, envelope effects, pitch tools, and more. For tenacious timbral and textural triage, nearly every shade of drive is at your disposal, from booming bass-contouring and fiery fuzz to impending overdrives and dastardly distortions.Looping, MIDI, and multitudes of modular expression Though the previous Ampero entries were endowed with onboard loopers, Hotone turbocharged the version found within the Ampero II. Utilizing its full-stereo architecture, the onboard looper provides up to 60 seconds of stereo recording, with essential controls over undo, redo, speed adjustments, and reverse modes of both recording and playback, to name a few. With so many effects, amps, pedals, and tools to include, looping transforms your output with rich, layered sonic structures. What’s more, the Ampero II includes a dedicated Stereo FX Loop, augmenting your interoperative integration to impart the Ampero II’s constellation of capabilities onto nearly any configuration of external software or hardware gear. When it comes to expression, Hotone built this multimode modeler and more to accommodate the ever-expanding diversity of the modern musical landscape. Namely, the Ampero II’s switchable volume/expression pedal provides endless in-the-moment experimentation with your favorite patches, effects, and parameters. An additional Exp/Ctrl jack gives you an increased range of nuanced expression. The jack is perfect for any number of peripheral tools, such as the Ampero Switch+ or Patch Kommander, but any compatible non-Hotone help is always welcome. Conversely, the Ampero II unlocks a supplementary dimension of musical madness by way of its onboard MIDI connectivity. Its 5-pin I/O ports provide MIDI in and MIDI out/thru connections, which can be used with a near-limitless number of exterior elements, from driving a MIDI-controlled software effect in your chain to real-time modulation of the Ampero II’s internal effects via your MIDI controller.Essential interfacing: fluid DAW recording and real-time control At this point, it’s genuinely difficult to imagine something the Ampero II can’t do, as Hotone made this multidimensional machine — in addition to all the aforementioned functionality — into a true USB audio interface. Using the company’s free-to-download Mac- and Windows-compatible software, the onboard USB-C port lets you regularly upgrade your firmware, as well as edit and manage your IRs and effects, but it also supports ultra-accurate audio over USB, thanks to the ESS Sabre D/A converter. This transforms the Ampero II into an 8-in, 8-out interface, with full use of its menagerie of MIDI, looping, effects, and modeling magic. Moreover, each input can be configured right on the unit for optimized signal processing for electric guitars or basses, acoustic instruments, or line-level inputs (e.g., keyboards and synthesizers). Additionally, each of its four footswitches is fully assignable, expanding your interfacing opportunities, and easily tailored to suit your situation, especially when recalling a carefully crafted setup from one of the 300 onboard preset slots. To handle so many multimode possibilities, the Ampero II masterfully balances physical and touch-based interfacing. Its vivid, full-color 5-inch touchscreen features a dynamic display that near-instantly adapts to every change made; its UI has been redesigned to not only provide a more intuitive workflow but also offer a wealth of customization options, from global display modes to themes of colors. Its aluminum chassis was ergonomically optimized with every surface. The Ampero II’s form factor sees a careful slant and methodical spacing of switches and knobs, while physical control points are teeming with a satisfying tactility and laser-focused definition. Its back plate includes connections for 1/4-inch audio (FX Loop Send/Return, Exp/Ctrl, Stereo I/O), 3.5-millimeter (Aux In with recording capabilities, Phones Out), a balanced 3-pin XLR stereo output pair, and a microphone-accommodating combo-jack input. The last connection even offers 48 volts of phantom power, five selectable input modes, and up to 52dB of gain. Thanks to Hotone’s thoughtful engineering, connections have been grouped and placed to ensure any solo, pedalboard, studio, or stage arrangement can be optimally accommodated.Capture your favorite amps with instant Tone Catch tech The Ampero II supports use with Tone Catch, a pain-free way to instantly capture the full sonic breadth of your favorite amps, effects, speakers, and any other aural configurations. Once stored, the suite of Ampero II software is your gateway to seamless integration with your preferred patches and selected Scenes. Plus, you’re not only able to discover and download new sounds and profiles, but also share them to the community of Hotone heavy hitters around the globe.Hotone: scorching tones that take you to new sonic heights Founded in 2012, Hotone’s innovative guitar and bass products are engineered with a singular aim: to inspire the creativity and artistry of musicians worldwide.
