Best review of this product so far. Everything explained. Thank you so much!
Hate the telescaster
Too much talk
How can i use the pedal as a wah pedal?? Coz it only controls volume no matter what i do
Hey shane! Do you know if this pedal can be used as individual stomp boxes as well as presets? Thanks! ????????
Can you have more than one same effect pedal in the chain? Like two flangers or two wahs (Kirk Hammet mode haha). Is it possible to reorder pedals, so to put the chorus before the amp or after the amp?
Super gut ????
I can promise u. This is total junk
Nice demonstration, Sir.
It’s pronounced ho-tone
I kmow this isbold, but great demo instructional video. Thanks man. ❤
I saw a yt demo on the loudster showing a right angle plug adapter for the dc plug ,but can't find the vid now or the correct pin size,Any help plz
nice demo! do you know if the ampero mini's EQ options are the same as on this unit?
Thanks
Thanks mate! It helped a lot
Dude. Thanks for the video. I was lost
Why would anyone want to connect via unbalanced line outs into another interface? That way you have 2 times d/a conversion and a bad latency. Isn't the ampero a sound interface also?
This way you only one a/d conversion and no d/a conversion at all.
Hi thanks for video
Can you save a new preset instead of overwriting the existing one? Thanks
where is it made?
So this wah express pedal is good for use with hands ? I dont find a revew when someone use it by foot . This aspect skipped
Good for beginners. The reverb unusable. The distortions are junk also
Great video can this unit be plugged straight into a power amp?
Thank you for this. I have a question: How to connect to a combo? I assume its through the fxloop (sender), and bypass/turn off the amp selection on the Hotone. I have a Boss Katana 100 1×12. Hope to get a response. No other video answer this basic question:) Thank you!
Well done!
No one ever shows how it's connected & monitored
that kind of guitar you got in this video 🙂
Love it, would you choose this or the ampero mini? I love how compact the mini is but Im not sure if it has as much options as this one
Thanks for this awesome demo! As always very informative.
I own a Marshall DSL40CR. Would it make sense to connect this device to my Marshall, being a tube amplifier, or is this not what the Ampero is made for? I’m considering to replace my pedalboard for a compact mondeling device such as the Ampero.
Greetings from the Netherlands!
very informative – I'm thinking of moving away from my racks to something more portable and started my journey looking at Headrush..leading me to the Pod Go and other units…I'm now attracted to the Fractal audio stuff but stumbled on Ampero during my youtube rabbit hole /research. I really like the sound and features of this little unit, and may actually return it for the new Ampero Stage… curious if you have thoughts about the Stage if you're familiar with it. thanks
Tnx for the great explanation. i have a small question. im using this for my live gigs. but im struggling with the volume pedal psition of the effect chain. its connected at the end of the chain. we can change the chain order except the volume pedal. how can i put it just before reverb and delay effects of the chain? is it possible to do? really appreciate if you can help me to fix this issue…tnx again
Very useful. I just bought one of these and this definitely helps. Thanks ????
ممكن طريقت ترانس بوز. زياده طبقه الصوت
Thanks posting.
Will update of the Firmware delete the custom patches?
I have the 2020 model.
Great video thank you so much
Thanks for sharing, Dude.. The sound is nice. However, the appearance / scene for tweaking hotone is poor.. Need a colorful one like the inside of Nux/Valeton multieffects…
Can you create and add a 4th present to the 4th (ctrl) footswitch?
Can you run to FOH desk and to a powered cab at the same time?
After you sold (me) the Hotone Soul Press II, you sold this one too!
Great video!
Would this be useful on stage?
Mine doesn’t come with the jewel button caps.
Great review man.Thanks.
So it seems that your unit has gapless switching, at least i can't hear the gap when you change the channel. My unit acts differently, did you tweak something extra? I have a gap when switching between channels, even when the same amp is loaded on both.
I find this pedalboard too bright on crunch sounds… I spend hours trying to find equilibrated sounds
Can you assign a jack output as an amp amput, simultaneosly with XLR's that go to the desk?
Little question… has anyone tried to plug it in two amps + stereo XLR in the PA? does some hum or other parasite sound appear, and if, does the ground lift cures the problem??
thanks for this great video! if you model amp and cab on the ampero, do you connect it to a passive studio monitor (because you already have amp in the ampero)? thanks!
