Re-amplification made easier than ever
AXE I/O ONE offers a dedicated Amp Out, with a ground-isolated design and zero-latency routing, letting you ditch expensive and confusing reamping setups. It’s simple: connect the Amp Out to your amp, then mic it up using AXE I/O ONE's microphone preamp. Now you can capture a clean copy of your signal to experiment with different amp, stompbox and microphone settings without re-recording countless takes.
Your guitar’s golden channel
AXE I/O ONE offers a triple-topology instrument input designed to preserve your guitar’s unique character. First, choose between passive and active channels to match your instrument, then choose between transparent PURE or warmer JFET circuits for added coloration. AXE I/O ONE also offers IK’s patent pending Z-TONE® circuit, letting you dial in impedance from 1 MOhm (“sharp”) down to 2.2 kOhms (“bold”), shaping your guitar's tone by interacting with its pickups. You’ll quickly find yourself using these controls to give your guitars even more sonic character – with just a few minutes’ experimentation you can dial in a sound that fits the mix beautifully.
