Fractal Axe-Fx II Preamp/Effects Processor

Inside, you get over 200 virtual amplifiers, 100 speaker cabinets, and 50 effects pedals. That’s a complete guitar rig in one box. And thanks to Fractal Audio’s modeling technology, every simulation carries the warmth and dynamics of a real amp.
The interface stays simple, too. You can dial in a new tone fast, then save and recall it for any session or show. Whether you’re playing through headphones or a full PA, the sound stays rich and full-bodied.
