Customizing Your Ampero
I/O
Set the global input/output levels and modes in the I/O menu.
Adjust the optimal Input Level for the instrument or other input you’re
using. Adjustable range is from -20dB to +20dB. Default is set to 0dB.
Out Mode lets you set up the unbalanced 1/4” out (UNBAL) and
balanced 1/4” out (BAL) mode. The selections for these are the same:
instrument output (Inst) and line output (Line). Use the instrument line
out for connecting to amplifiers or other effects equipment. Use the
line output for connecting to mixers or audio interfaces.
No Cab Mode is for connecting to instrument amplifiers without
changing saved presets. Turning this on will bypass the CAB module
for Ampero’s L/R output channels ignoring preset settings. You can
apply different settings on L/R output channels for different
scenarios. Default is set to Off.

USB audio interface.
The Rec Mode options allow you to select USB recording input

When recording, adjust the optimal Rec Level according to the

-20dB to +20dB. Default is set to 0dB.
