Tiny, durable, quality multi-fx

Maddie D 22.08.2023

A brilliant multi-FX which I've been using on it's own, however I'm sure it would also fit very well into an established pedalboard.

The case is made of solid metal and the footswitches feel high-quality. It's touchscreen menus can be a little finicky to use at times but get the job done, especially when used with the desktop app on a connected PC. The main drawback would be the lack of XLR and lack of a power switch, meaning the unit must be unplugged to turn it off, but this is a minor inconvenience more than anything.

Overall I am very pleased with this FX unit and would recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable, small, quality box.

Great value-cost

AlexTheKing 07.12.2023

Very powerful device. Quite a lot of amps/effects + impulse response support. With this thing you can come up with pretty much any sound for any genre of music.
Highly recommended.

Great unit paired with Ampero switch

Colm4 31.05.2024

I wanted something compact to play with a band after a long hiatus from playing the electric guitar. I've had a quite a few multi effects in the past e.g. Pod XT live and Boss GT6.
The Ampero switch combined with this means I can record a loop, change presents and play the loop. This isn't possible on many lower end, smaller units.
Using amp sims, overdrive and other effects, the unit sounds good going into the power amp of a Boss Katana.
Quality is solid. My only gripe is when switching between certain presets there's a lag.

Hotone Ampero Mini

Davagixxer 22.01.2025

Was expecting a lot more from this than it provided. Have had a history of Multi effects going back over a decade - Digitech GNX3000, Boss GT3, GT10, Various Zoom pedals, Boss ME25 (very underrated!) and others. This was underwhelming. The sounds were very similar and tweaking didn't seem to change all that much, was outputting to the power stage of my ancient Valvestate 8040 as well as direct into the pre with all knobs at 12 o'clock, also used it with a Y splitter into my Focusrite 2i4 set at Line, didn't find the touch screen as responsive as YouTube would have you believe - and I haven't got fat fingers. Once I get refunded I will try the HB DNA GiT Advanced and see how that goes. I can't justify the cost of Kempers, Neural Cortexes or Helixes so budget it where I stay!
