Introduction
About the Ampliton
Your new Ampliton is a member of the Alesis ModFX family of
performance effects boxes. This particular ModFX unit, the
Ampliton, is an amplitude modulator that combines a tremolo
effect with an autopan effect.
Each box in the line provides a different set of sound effects and
signal processing, and they are easy to arrange and connect to each
other. With a uniform, friendly, uncomplicated user interface and
high-resolution digital processing, the ModFX product line is
perfect for keyboardists, guitarists, and any other studio or live
performance artists.
Important features of your Ampliton
High Resolution Processing
The Ampliton internally uses 28-bit stereo digital signal processing.
The digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital conversion is sampled
at 48kHz with 24 bits of resolution. That means you can get the
effect you want, without adding unwanted noise and distortion.
ModLink
If you're using multiple ModFX boxes to make your own unique
effects chain, ModLink makes it easy to hookup without needing
patch cords within the chain. The nine-pin connectors built into
each side of the case enable a ModFX box to transfer digital audio
and word clock directly to another. Any number of units can be
connected together.
Configurable Modulation
Both the tremolo and the autopan effects have configurable
modulation. The user can control the shape, rate, and depth of the
modulation. The rate of each modulation can be synchronized to
the tempo, both by tap tempo and by audio input.
