Hotone Ampero Mini

The Ampero Mini is the smallest in the Ampero family but offers enormous possibilities, with a wide range of IR models of amplifiers, cabinets and effects. It also has Looper, Tuner, drum comp and 199 presets. The easy-to-use touch screen makes editing intuitive and via the USB C port you can use the software editor for Mac/PC that is included.

Ampero Mini comes with advanced acoustic simulation algorithms. Used in conjunction with built-in acoustic simulation presets, you can easily transform your electric instruments into microphone-equipped acoustic masterpieces: steel string, nylon string and more. Compatible ASIO driver for Windows, direct macOS pairing and supports recording on the go via smartphones. The looper function can record up to 50 seconds of stereo, with additional support for ½ speed and reverse.

Main processor - NXP RT series A powerful NXP RT transition processor is dedicated to the audio engine. With a high clock frequency, this processor is very good compared to the Analog Devices SHARC-DSP used in standard Ampero units, making it easy to handle several high-quality effects algorithms.

Coprocessor - NXP RT Series Like regular Ampero units, the Ampero Mini features an NXP RT pass-through coprocessor that not only helps process audio streams, but also powers the touchscreen, USB I/O, and other functions.
