SUMMER NAMM 2017: Hotone has announced the Xtomp Mini Bluetooth modelling effects pedal, a downsized version of its well-received, effect-rammed Xtomp, launched last year.
Offering over 140 effects for guitar and bass, the Xtomp Mini integrates with an iOS/Android/desktop app via Bluetooth/USB to load up new sounds.
Effects types span Amplifier, Cabinet, Distortion, Dynamic, Frequency, Modulation and Ambient, while Hotone’s Comprehensive Dynamic Circuit Modelling (CDCM) tech promises “larger and more complex modelling algorithms” than its rivals, for increased realism.
The Xtomp Mini is available now for $149.99. Head over to Hotone Audio (opens in new tab) for more info.
