Description

Most expression pedals give you control over parameters—but not control over the pedal itself. The Hotone Ampero II Press changes that by combining expression control with a dedicated footswitch output in a single, compact unit. Designed to work seamlessly with Ampero II systems and other compatible devices, it lets you adjust effects and trigger functions without reaching back to your rig. With a fully passive design and straightforward operation, the Ampero II Press is built to simplify your setup while expanding what you can do in real time.

Expression Control and Integrated Footswitch for Expanded Performance Control

The Ampero II Press functions as both a traditional expression pedal and a standalone footswitch, giving you direct control over multiple parameters and functions at once. Use the expression side to shape volume, modulation or effect depth, while the front-end footswitch allows you to toggle effects, presets or other assigned functions instantly. This dual functionality streamlines your workflow, making it easier to stay focused on playing rather than managing your gear.

Independent Outputs and Passive Design for Seamless Integration

With separate TRS outputs for expression and footswitch control, the Hotone Ampero II Press integrates easily with multi-effects units and other devices that support dual EXP inputs. Its passive design requires no external power, keeping your setup simple and reliable. Built with a solid aluminum alloy chassis and a responsive “click” footswitch for clear tactile feedback, the Ampero II Press is designed to perform consistently whether you’re on stage or in the studio.
