What makes a good digital effects processor? For the folks at Hotone, it is so much more than delivering a high-quality sound. In order to be accessible for more players to enjoy the pure simplicity of music, a good pedal needs a design as intuitive and straightforward as possible, meanwhile maintaining a reachable price. Therefore, Hotone channeled this into creating Ampero. Since its launch, the Ampero Series has gained the favour of the music professionals and hobbyists alike and earned a reputation for its sound performance and user interface design.
Ampero II Stomp implements the brand new tri-core digital platform and independent AD/DA from ESS® Sabre® Series, combined with our more advanced CDCM HD and F.I.R.E modelling technology, creating more musically dynamic and vivid tones. It also features a highly customizable dual effects chain supporting multiple serial/parallel signal routing. Up to 12 effects modules can be used simultaneously.
With its 8-in/8-out USB audio interface function you can monitor wet and record dry, or record wet and dry simultaneously, and of course reamp! You've got all those options with Ampero II Stomp. It's also been imbued with a fresh UI design to make things more accessible. Besides the touchscreen, editing general settings and switching patches can be also managed with ease.
Ampero II Stomp now supports up to 2048 IR sampling points, doubled up from the previous generation, furthermore reproducing captured cabinets and studio acoustics with precision. In addition, 20 classic Celestion® speaker IRs powered by Celestion® Digital and 50 more custom IR slots are now available and offer a variety of tonal opportunities. Plus a built-in stereo looper supports max. 60 seconds stereo recording, backed up by functions such as undo/redo, 1/2 speed, reverse record/play and more.
You can connect Ampero Stomp II to your desktop or laptop and launch the editor software, which gives you access to more specific effects descriptions, more straightforward patch editing and more effective patch management, you’ll find the information you need with ultra-convenience. And the I/O options now allow you to pair up with more instruments/pedals/amps. Hello, Stereo FX Loop! EXP/CTRL and MIDI In/Out options are also onboard.
