Expansive tonal options, pedalboard-friendly format.
The Hotone Ampero One packs the uncompromising modeling power of the original Ampero into a compact, pedalboard-friendly format built for maximum portability. Driven by the same dual-DSP platform and CDCM HD + F.I.R.E. modeling system, it delivers a responsive, amp-like playing experience with detailed dynamics and natural feel across a wide range of tones. With 64 amp models, 60 cabinet simulations and over 240 effects, it gives you the flexibility to build complex signal chains of up to nine simultaneous modules without overcomplicating your setup. A 4” color touchscreen and built-in expression pedal keep control intuitive, while standard 9V operation and USB recording make it easy to integrate into both pedalboards and studio rigs. Whether you’re running direct to a PA or tracking at home, the Ampero One delivers a streamlined, professional-grade solution without the bulk.
CDCM HD and F.I.R.E. Modeling for Responsive, Amp-Like Feel
At the core of the Ampero One is Hotone’s CDCM HD and F.I.R.E. modeling system, designed to recreate the behavior of real amp circuits rather than simply approximating their sound. This dynamic approach delivers improved touch sensitivity, harmonic detail and interaction between amp and cabinet models, allowing your playing to translate naturally. From clean headroom to saturated gain, the Ampero One maintains a responsive feel that reacts to your input instead of flattening it.
Comprehensive Amp, Cab and Effects Library for Full Signal Chain Control
Ampero One provides a complete tone-building environment, including 64 amp models, 60 cabinet simulations and over 240 effects drawn from Hotone’s XTOMP platform. With support for third-party impulse responses, you can further customize your sound to match specific rigs or recording needs. Up to nine effects modules can run simultaneously, making it easy to build anything from simple chains to more detailed, studio-style setups, all within a compact footprint.
Touchscreen Interface and Integrated Connectivity for Streamlined Workflow
A 4” color touchscreen and intuitive interface make editing and navigation fast and direct, eliminating the need for deep menu diving. USB connectivity allows for firmware updates, preset management and use as a USB audio interface, while stereo outputs and headphone monitoring provide flexible options for practice, recording and live use. Designed to integrate easily into modern setups, the Ampero One keeps your workflow simple without limiting your control.
Looper, Drum Machine and Expression Control for Real-Time Creativity
Beyond its core tone capabilities, the Ampero One includes built-in performance tools that expand its versatility. A looper with up to 100 seconds of recording time and a drum machine with 100 rhythm patterns allow you to sketch ideas, practice or perform solo. Three assignable footswitches and a built-in expression pedal give you hands-on control over your sound, making it easy to adjust parameters and switch presets without breaking your flow.
A Compact All-In-One Rig for Demanding Modern Players
By combining advanced modeling, a full effects suite and practical performance tools into a streamlined format, the Hotone Ampero One delivers the flexibility of a full-size rig in a design built for real-world use. It’s a complete all-in-one solution for players who want professional tone and control without carrying more than they need.
