HoTone Ampero 3-stars Reviews

does many things...averagely

The good:

features (packed with functions)

casing/build quality

UI and PC connectivity

the "not so good":

tpyed sound (but that is expected with a multi Fx, it is not meant to sound or react like a real amp would, and does not indeed.)

wah/exoression pedal is tiny (and on the wrong side for lefties)

overall this item has very good price/quality point but this is NOT to be compared with more pricy multifxes, even though it pretend to the same functionalities, think of it as a swiss army knife if you relocate/move and need something to practice.

the very bad thing : looper latency makes it completely useless as a teacher I would not want someone to work on rhythm with this.

Good sounds, had a hardware problem

The unit is great for the price. If it works.

It's small, light, with a wide array of connections. The switches are very near each other and the pedal is very hard to use because of it's size. I use it for rehearsals and some recording. Noticable gap when changing presets, and the delays have some awful artefacts.

The Ampero did not work correctly the first time i bought it(hardware error while booting every 10th boot). the second one(i have it now) is switching channels and changing output volume randomly. i will send it back and wait for a replacement. again :D.

It does everything, but the sound is not to my liking

Received the unit and it is beautiful and has a solid, high quality feel. The display is great and the unit is very easy to use. The sound quality is not what I expected. I'm using the unit connected to a frfr and it has a lot of feedback no matter the position of of the speaker and it sounds muffled. I also tried it with a Fender Bassman and it didn't sound any different. I bought the unit impressed by the youtube reviews, but at least my unit, didn't sound anything close to that.
