Product Description

Alesis has introduced its new GuitarFX Processor, a floor multi-effects unit, which puts powerful effects processing technology beneath the feet of guitarists worldwide. GuitarFX is a full-featured DSP toolbox designed to give guitarists incredible-sounding distortion, amplifier modeling, modulation effects, delays and reverbs--all in a compact, easy-to-use pedalboard for stage and studio applications.

GuitarFX's extremely intuitive user interface delivers Alesis' DSP technology in the form of 100 Preset/User programs, taking guitarists from high-gain distortion mayhem to subtle overdriven sounds, modulation effects, lush reverb and more. Each of GuitarFX's 28-bit effects and amplifier models were carefully chosen from Alesis' extensive DSP arsenal, and can be completely customized via simple front panel controls.

Large Increment/Decrement pedals and an expression pedal input make GuitarFX perfectly suited for live use, while a built-in auto-chromatic tuner provides for fast tuning on stage; battery or 9VDC operation means GuitarFX is ready to travel. GuitarFX connections include Guitar input, Stereo Line/Headphone output, and Expression Pedal input.

The GuitarFX is covered by Alesis' full warranty.
