Description

AmpliFIRE 12 is Atomic's top of the line, full-sized guitar processor.

With its world-class, patented amp modeling technology from Studio Devil, professional grade suite of effects and the ability to load 3rd party speaker impulses, AmpliFIRE 12 can faithfully recreate the experience of playing through the greatest guitar rigs of all-time.

AmpliFIRE 12 builds on the success of the company's powerful and portable AmpliFIRE pedal. Both share the same amp modeling and effects processing engine, OS, editor and firmware making it easy to share sounds and presets between them. AmpliFIRE 12 increases the number of footswitches to 12, adds a larger LCD screen, 2 dedicated expression pedal inputs and a pro headphone connection. All this is packed into a custom-designed, ultra-rugged, tour ready aluminum enclosure.
