CDCM HD & F.I.R.E. Modeling

The Ampero One uses Hotone's CDCM HD and F.I.R.E. modeling technologies to reproduce the dynamic characteristics and response of amplifiers, cabinets, microphones, and effects. Its dual-DSP architecture provides the processing power required for detailed modeling and multiple simultaneous effects.

Extensive Effects Library

With 242 effects, the Ampero One provides a broad selection of processing options for guitar, bass, and acoustic instruments. Its library includes 64 amp models, 60 cabinet models, more than 100 pedal models, microphone simulations, and more than 50 Hotone original effects covering drive, dynamics, filters, modulation, delay, reverb, and other effects.

Flexible Effects Chain

Ampero One can run up to nine effect modules simultaneously. Its editable signal chain allows players to change the order of effects and create customized combinations for different playing styles, songs, and performance situations.

Impulse Response Support

The built-in user IR loader supports custom and third-party impulse responses. Compatible impulse responses can be loaded to expand cabinet and speaker simulation options for recording, direct performance, and full-range monitoring.

Touchscreen Interface

The 4-inch 800 × 480 color touchscreen provides a clear and intuitive interface for editing presets, adjusting effect parameters, changing signal-chain order, and navigating system settings. Touch-based controls provide convenient access to the Ampero One's production and performance functions.

Assignable Footswitches and Expression Pedal

Three assignable footswitches with halo LEDs provide hands-free control over presets and effects. The integrated expression pedal provides real-time control over parameters such as volume, wah, pitch, modulation, and other assignable functions.

Electric, Bass and Acoustic Applications

Ampero One is designed to accommodate a variety of instruments. Its high-impedance input supports electric guitars, basses, and acoustic instruments, while acoustic simulation capabilities provide additional tonal flexibility for acoustic-style applications.

Looper and Drum Machine

The built-in looper provides up to 100 seconds of mono recording time or 50 seconds in stereo mode. The integrated drum machine includes 100 rhythm patterns, making Ampero One useful for practice, improvisation, songwriting, and live looping.

USB Audio Interface

The USB connection allows Ampero One to function as a USB audio interface for computer-based recording and music production. The USB connection can also be used for firmware updates and managing compatible effects and impulse responses.

Flexible Connectivity

Ampero One provides essential connections for stage, studio, and practice environments. Stereo unbalanced outputs can connect to amplifiers, power amplifiers, mixers, and other equipment, while the headphone output supports quiet practice. The auxiliary input allows external audio sources to be connected, while MIDI and external controller connections provide additional control options.
