Advanced Amp Modeling

The Ampero II uses Hotone's CDCM HD and F.I.R.E. modeling technologies to reproduce the character and response of amplifiers, cabinets, microphones, preamps, power amps, and effects. This provides a wide range of tones suitable for clean, crunch, overdrive, distortion, high-gain, ambient, and experimental applications.

Extensive Effects Library

The Ampero II includes more than 460 effects covering overdrive, distortion, dynamics, EQ, modulation, delay, reverb, pitch, filtering, acoustic processing, and other creative effects. Up to 12 effect modules can operate simultaneously, giving players extensive control over their complete signal chain.

Flexible Signal Routing

The customizable dual effect-chain architecture supports both serial and parallel routing. Effects can be arranged to create personalized signal paths for different instruments, amplifiers, recording systems, and live performance configurations.

5-Inch Color Touchscreen

The 5-inch 800 × 480 color touchscreen provides intuitive control over presets, effects, signal chains, parameters, and system settings. Its clear interface makes detailed editing and sound creation straightforward while keeping important controls easily accessible.

Tone Catch Technology

Tone Catch technology allows the Ampero II to capture the tonal characteristics of compatible amplifiers and pedals. Captured tones can be incorporated into the processor, providing additional possibilities for creating personalized digital rigs.

Impulse Response Support

The dedicated impulse response loader allows users to load third-party IR files and customize cabinet and speaker tones. The Ampero II provides 50 user IR slots and supports impulse responses with up to 2048 sampling points.

Celestion Speaker IRs

The Ampero II includes 20 Celestion speaker impulse responses, giving players access to a selection of professionally voiced speaker tones for direct recording, live sound, powered speakers, mixers, and headphones.

Scene Function

Each preset can contain four scenes, allowing players to switch effects and parameter settings without changing presets. This makes it easy to create different variations of the same core tone for rhythm, lead, clean, ambient, and other performance sections.

Built-In Expression Pedal

The integrated expression pedal provides hands-free control over assignable parameters including volume, wah, pitch, modulation, delay, and other effect settings. This makes the Ampero II particularly useful for live performance.

Built-In Stereo Looper

The built-in stereo looper provides up to 60 seconds of recording time and can be used for practice, songwriting, layering, sound experimentation, and live looping performances.

USB Audio Interface

The Ampero II can operate as an 8-in/8-out USB audio interface, allowing it to connect directly to a computer for recording and music production. USB audio also supports reamping, providing additional flexibility when recording and refining guitar or bass tones.

MIDI and Effects Loop Connectivity

The 5-pin MIDI input and output allow the Ampero II to communicate with compatible MIDI controllers, instruments, and processors. The stereo effects loop provides additional flexibility for integrating external pedals and equipment into the signal chain.

Live and Studio Performance

With balanced XLR outputs, stereo outputs, headphone connectivity, MIDI, USB audio, an effects loop, expression control, and flexible input options, the Ampero II can connect directly to amplifiers, powered speakers, mixers, audio interfaces, and recording systems.
