You can use either FX1, FX2, Delay/Rerverb, or every possible combination of these three modules. Each module is freely assignable and has its own EQ.
UTILIZATION
Easy to use but it has a lot of sub-menus...
The buttons and endless encoders work very well (unlike my Yamaha A3000!! If someone is interested, make me a good offer!!)
What about the user's manual?
I don't even know if I have it!
SOUND QUALITY
AD/DA converters: 18 bits, 48 kHz, 128x oversampling.
That means more than 96 dB in dynamic range and 20 Hz - 20 kHz frequency response.
The result is a compromise between audio processing power and sound clearness for a nice price.
The PSU makes some noise...
But in my house, all PSUs transmit noise to my speakers... I'm open to advice!
I personally love the EH-like phaser effect.
OVERALL OPINION
The AM8000R allows you to simultaneously edit up to eight parameters in real time.
Unlike lots of effect processors that allow you to control only some parameters, the AM8000R allows you to edit virtually every effect parameter via MIDI, an expression pedal or the WARP control on the front panel.
The AM8000R allows you to modulate chorus, flanger, phaser and filter effects with four different LFO and envelopes.
I love it.
