AMP/CAB
HEXARAY: Level meter
This is an amp that uses BOSS’s proprietary cutting-edge AIRD (Augmented Impulse Response Dynamics) technology to simulate every detail of a guitar amp as a unified instrument, including the response and operation of the guitar amp’s circuit and the interactions between all parts that affect the sound.
