The Hotone Ampero Mini Mini MT Mustard combines ultra-compact size with excellent sound quality characteristic of the Ampero family.
The Ampero Mini is the smallest member of the Ampero family to date. Despite its compact aluminum housing, it holds significant potential as it offers the same uncompromising sound quality as its larger relatives.
It comes with an impressive number of effects with the option to use impulse responses (IR) from other manufacturers.
The built-in input and output jacks are sufficient for daily use. The presence of a touch screen and an intuitive user interface contributes to the smooth operation of this multi-effect unit.
The sound quality level is identical to that of the Ampero One. The Ampero Mini provides excellent performance at a lower price, making it an ideal choice for beginner guitarists who often need to consider budget constraints.
The Hotone Ampero Mini is also recommended for session musicians looking for a compromise between the compact size of a guitar multi-effect (for easy transport) and professional sound quality. This is why experienced veterans of the music scene will also appreciate it.
