Introduction
Six simultaneous effects
You can select and arrange the order of up to six effects as you like and use them
Feels just like using effect pedals
Three effects can be shown on the displays at the same time, allowing you to control them
intuitively using the parameter knobs and footswitches.
Realistic amplifier modeling
Using our new ZFX-IV DSP, we have faithfully recreated the distortion rich with harmonics
and the compression characteristic of tube amps.
The precisely-crafted modeled sounds are extremely responsive to picking dynamics and
guitar volume control.
