What's your favourite mini modeler?

Just bought it a month ago, Instant love. Great sound, can be used as an interface, amazing presets, amp models. This is by far the best option for the price.

This is by FAR the best demo I've seen on the Ampero Mini. Thank you for actually diving deeper with the features and showing a number of different types of patches!

It's like me...tiny, powerful, good looking and touch responsive.

The interface is so intuitive, I have yet to plug this into the computer. I am beyond impressed with this unit for the money. Also very portable for travel

Sounds really good. Nice demo!

Thats got some really nice tones ! Very impressive 🤘

Great demo man, just the right amount of depth and playing time to hear each patch. Nice playing too, onya mate.

Pretty impressive what this little device is able to do and to sound.

I could live with those Shiva clean tones for years!

What a giant modeler. I think it's one of compact but complete packages to practice and busking❤

That bit you started @10:00 was beautiful brother!

love your work Leon!! 🤘🤘

Love this review and everything you play my man thank you

What a time to be a guitarist, this little box of tricks is so powerful for its size! Great video man, thanks & hope you’re very well 😎🙏🔥

Excellent demo! I have one coming in 48 hours…because of you.

I really admire people that makes it sounds good coz I have hard time making it sound good. Sometimes my setup is good when listening to headphones then sometimes bad in live.

I’ve decided to pull the trigger on this Ampero mini after watching your review. Thanks a lot!

sounds really great! I am sure the ampero 2 sounds even better

tbh, that sounds pretty incredible!

WOW! Four ADA MPs at the rack behind! Love these things, rare to see now

Couldn't click fast enough.. I've been wondering about this thing. I've seen a few vids saying this thing rocks, and after you hit those first chords with the JCM it was heaven in my ears with my killer headphones.. Especially that delay! Man, for a couple hundred bucks that thing rocks. We for sure live in the best yet time to play guitar! Just epic.. Of course, your playing makes it come alive and your explaining what your doing is killer! The clean stuff was killer too.. Just beautiful. Some Jimi Hendrix in a box. Love it.. Very cool.. I'll have to check out hotone as well.. I can't believe the bang for your dollar you can get these days.. Amazing.. When I was young I would have died for one of these.. Your face when playing some of the dirty stuff is so relatable.. :-p Great demo sir.. Really good and again I love the split screen so I can see the settings on the device and see the device up so close.. Very cool and genius on your part my friend. Thank you again for the joy you bring to me and my morning coffee time by myself .. Now time to pickup the Charvel and let loose in the headphones so I don't wake up the parents then off to work! Be well and safe my good friend! Tim

love seeing these videos on what else is out there on the more wallet friendly side of things, more often than not it's with the 'that might be a good backup for my FM3 just in case😄 this sounds great for the price/feature set in any case, and that size is awesome

Great video as always. Thank you. How does it stack up against the NUX MG400 in your opinion?

This looks like an absolutelly great little unit. I have the Ampero 1st gen and it seems to have the same modeling engine which is great. I did several AB tests between the Ampero amp models (to fx return of a tube power amp) and my Synergy modules (Friedman, Iicp, Soldano) and even a real Mark IV. Conclusion: you can get very very close , very quickly, to the point where it does not even matter. With a great IR this sounds great as well. I am not 100% convinced about the cab modelling though.. but it may be better on these newer units. Anyway, for the price and convenience this mini version seem unbeatable.

Eu gostei muito da GP200lt! Excelente simulador e bom preço

Nice one Leon. The Ampero Mini seems like an excellent bang for the buck. Bedroom Warriors look no further. No need for $1K Modeler's

At 6.03 you dialed the "Tie your mother down" delay...very good.

Leon, have tried polyphonic pitch shifter in mini? what do you think about it?

@LeonTodd great demo, bro! Where can I download your patches?

Hi Leon, comparing this to the Nux Amp Academy, (just sound-wise regarding the implemented modelling) what would you say? Thanks for your opinion!

Great video Leon. Would love to hear your opinion on the Sonicake Matribox 2. I'm betting when it's on sale, it'll be priced around $200 or less USD. Pretty smooth all-in-one gig bag sized performance solution on a tight budget. The Ampero mini sounds fantastic. Would love to hear your thoughts on the Sonicake product. We picked up a bass processor and acoustic guitar Sonicake processor and they sound fantastic for stupid cheap money and are built like a tank. God bless and rock on 🎸😎👍

I'm really taken with that touch screen UI. Looks very well done. The effects models appealed to me too. Hard to fathom how you can get all that for 400 dollars.

Has anyone compared this one to the Matribox II? Both units are around the same cost but i am after the one that has the better Amp sims and effect sounds? This Hotone ampero mini is a real contender from what i hear on this vid!

I feel the sonicake matribox 2 is the best value modeler tbh. The ampero mini is still a beast tho🔥 Awesome review my man 🔥

I have a dilemma Hotone ampero mini or NUX MG-400, I'm looking for a truer (realistic) sound. Thank you for the answer.

did they fix the noise of ampero 2? even the noise gate couldn't help it. returned that sucker quick.

Looks like a decent unit for the price.

How it sounds compared to Mooer p2? (I know it is different form factor) For silent practice soundwise wich is better?

Mooer prime p1 and p2 on its way half the price of this, awaiting you to review, ace, greetings Leon like you with the dgt

Damn you should be Hotone ambassador man! you definitely sold me the pedal with that ragdoll heaven above riff! I needed a small multi fx pedal with good quality sound. Btw, which is the name of the riff at 4:16?

I feel like Hotone and Valeton are really underrated int he multi effects and modeling world.

does the software/editor for Ampero Mini work seamlessly on MacOS? (I am running a MacBook Air M2) TIA :)

How does this amp sounds over headphones?

How does it sound compared to the Spark Mini?

The best value all depends on where you buy it from. The Ampero Mini will cost you about £/$/€189 whereas the Ampero One will cost you £199. The only reason not to spend the extra tenner is if the small form factor is something you simply must have as the Ampero One is an absolute bargain at that price. The recently added Dumble amp sim is worth the £10 alone.

Leon i just bought a Hotone Ampero Mini and sounds good with cab sim on with FRFR or Monitors but not so good with cab sim off in front or return of my amp?Any suggestions?

Can it run only effects? What I wanna ask is if this could be a swish army knife in the middle even if I upgrade later and get a stereo amp pedal last in chain.

Hi Leon... How will it works on an amp effects loop only as multieffects? Tone sucker? Conversion?

Very nice LT... how do you think it compares to an FM3T?

Plug it straight into a pa desk. With a basic recording. That way people can get an idea what is really sounds like

Leon looking sunkissed brother. Hows that heatwave treating ya

If only this had midi, even if was only to receive PC messages from something like an MS-3 or FC1010, then I'd be all over it. The CTRL/Exp offers a bit of external control, but probably not enough for my liking.

I’ve got the ampero stomp 11. I did have the ampero 1 which is what you’ve got to review. DONT BUY THE MINI. BUY THE STOMP 11. The Stomp 11 has a better processor engine inside it. Yes it’s more expensive, but a lot better,compression on utube doesn’t show the difference. I use mine through the clean channel of a Marshall dsl 40 valve amp like a pedal platform. It’s a damn monster. Tbh it’s mind blowing damn I hated modelers until this.

Great vid! What's the riff at @8:30

Is this still the best value modeler in 2024?

The distortion is terrible

I wish I had a Black Twin, IRL

Ho Tone. Hot One.

This is a couple times now that I've seen you give ups to the Ampero stuff. I don't know if I could sell my Fractal for it, but it's pretty amazing what has become available for the price these days. I would've slain 20 years ago for something like this. In a mix, all this Ampero and Mooer gear does the trick, bet. Oh....and Fractal needs to add a bigger screen with touch display, as well as keep the knows that old schoolers love if they want to stay king. That'll separate them from the pack. I don't know where else there is for them to go unless they merge or license with Eventide or Strymon and add proprietary algo's to their effects package that is already pretty stellar. Fractal powered by Eventide has a nice ring though.
