AXE I/O is an advanced 2 in/5 out audio and controller interface crafted to meet the needs of guitarists producing recordings. Featuring unparalleled sound quality and groundbreaking features, this device makes recording faster, easier and better than ever. Its unique Z-TONE® circuit offers adjustable impedance ranging from 1 MOhm ("sharp") to 2.2 kOhms ("bold"), giving away to modify pick-up sound. At its maximum impedance, guitarists will find the sound to be tighter, sharper and more precise. On the other hand, increasing the load brings out a thick, bold sound. With this, you can give your guitars a unique sonic character in just a few minutes and fully integrate it with the mix.
