Your live acoustic guitar tone will sound better than ever, thanks to the A1X Four. Acoustic emulation and modeling add depth and dimension to your sound. The A1X Four employs impulse responses to emulate the sonic fingerprint of a whole slew of popular acoustic guitars, enabling you to replicate your studio tone onstage. You can then shape your sound further with Gain, Bass, Mid, and Treble controls. You can also optimize the A1X Four’s processing to accommodate piezo or magnetic pickups. The A1X Four includes 15 factory presets for acoustic guitar, and 13 more are available via ZOOM’s Guitar Lab software.
If you have the A1X Four, Jerry Goodman-eque violin tones are right at your fingertips. Transform your violin into a full string symphony. Tear through explosive distorted solos. Best of all, the A1X Four’s violin-tailored distortion effects preserve your bowing attack, which is essential for expressive playing. Acoustic double bass players can get in on the action, too. Whether you play classical, rockabilly, or symphonic metal, the A1X Four yields the focused highs and rich lows you need to deliver an earthshaking performance.
Running your saxophone through the ZOOM A1X Four gives you access to a whole horde of exciting soundscapes. Gritty, rock ‘n’ roll sax growl? It’s in there. Double-tracked jazz fusion-style textures? It can do that, too. You also get EQ and compression for maximizing your instrument’s impact.
The ZOOM A1X Four also breathes life into your harmonica playing. Unleash punchy, mid-forward blues harp tones. Replicate Stevie Wonder’s famous chorused harmonica sound. You can also emulate the warm, uber-amplified sound of a Green Bullet — even through your regular vocal mic.
