The A1X FOUR is preloaded with over 90 effects, including more
than 35 new groundbreaking effects designed and engineered for acoustic
instruments.
Add a multitude of warm and
rich tones to your guitar. From live “unplugged” performance sounds to
the finger-playing style of country and blues, there’s so much to choose
from. Gorgeous effects and acoustic guitar modelling will take your
instrument to places it’s never been before. For saxophone players,the
A1X FOUR makes it a breeze to perform that gritty, rock-and-roll sax
growl. Or use the lush custom-chorus effect to emulate the sound of jazz
fusion. The A1X FOUR gives sax players a soundscape of possibilities.
The all-new “SaxChorus” effect delivers a more natural double-track and
thick tone response by softening the modulated sensation typical of a
chorus designed for the electric guitar. With ready-made settings for EQ
and Compressors your sax will preserve its acoustically warm sound,
even when amplified through mics.
Trumpet
players will love the ability to shift from the bright sound of electric
jazz to Zoom's signature Auto Wah sound effect. With the “Tp MD70”
preset patch the Pedal Wah sound is tuned, resonates and adapts to the
low frequency range and curve of the trumpet. Violin players can create
the rich, full sound of a string symphony or dive into the raw,
distorted explosion of metal. The A1 FOUR has effects for every
genre.
For the harmonica player, play
punchy, mid-range sounds of a blues harp, or experiment with your own
new sounds. Breathing new life into your harmonica has never been so
much fun. Play through the preset patch “Hm StevieW” and get that famous
harmonica sound as the chorus’s wet signal effect is modified to fit
the frequency response of the chromatic harmonica. The A1X FOUR even
provides you with a truly effective simulation of the Bullet Mic, also
known by harmonica players as the Green Bullet. Select the preset patch
“Hm Juke” and now hear the legendary amplified, warm tone of the Green
Bullet come to life, even when using any standard vocal
microphone.
Even the upright bass player is
catered for; With focused highs and rich lows, the A1 FOUR gives you
control and flexibility from classical to rockabilly and all styles in
between. Add octaves, select your piezo effect or create your own unique
signature sound.
The A1X FOUR is the ideal effects unit for acoustic instruments.
