Walrus Audio MAKO Series ACS1 | Amp & Cab Simulator
The Sound & Feel Of World-Class Amps, Speaker Cabs & Controllable Room Sizes
The ACS1 delivers vintage amplifier and custom speaker cabinets that can be mixed and matched in left and right channels. Need some clear headroom on the right and a little chime-y grit on the left? Easily dial in completely separate amps, cabs, EQ, gain and room reverb and save your favourite tones with 1 of 3 on-board presets (128 via MIDI).
The [ACS1] is an amplifier and speaker cab simulator delivering the sound and feel of world-class amplifiers, complimentary speaker cabinets, and controllable room size. With the ACS1, players have expansive options to deliver their tone whether it's on stage, in the studio, or practising at home. Simple controls, stereo in and out, onboard presets, and MIDI support make the ACS1 an immeasurable tool in a guitarist's arsenal. Players can also load in their own IRs and update firmware at walrusaudio.io
Amplifiers
The ACS1 models three vintage amp styles crucial to music industry history designated by their places of origin. When running the ACS1 in stereo, one amp can be used through both channels or mix and match amps and cabinets on the left and right channels with the L + R switch.
Volume and Gain work together, similar to how they would on an amp. For example, increasing gain levels will also raise overall volume output so adjust the volume knob accordingly.
- Fullerton is inspired by the classically bright and clear Fender Deluxe Reverb. Crisp clean tones with loads of headroom that players have come to love over the years.
- London is inspired by a 1962 Marshall Bluesbreaker with a harmonically rich, valve-driven breakup. Articulate and sensitive response.
- Dartford is inspired by the legendary jangly high-end tones from a 1960s Vox AC30 with all the bite and chime from the British Invasion.
Cabinet IRs
The ACS1 holds six high-quality cabinet impulse responses (IRs). It ships pre-loaded with six custom cabinet IRs developed by Walrus Audio that sound great with each amp. Users also have the option to load their own IRs.
Room Ambience
Simulate the size of the room that your amp and cabinet are in. At zero, it would resemble tracking your amp in an isolated environment with no reverb. At max would emulate a natural-sounding, large studio environment.
Presets
Save up to three presets onboard or using MIDI, up to 128 presets can be saved and recalled.
Boost
A boost feature is available by pressing the boost switch. It allows you to quickly jump to a preset level of volume and/or gain. The boost LED will flash letting you know that it is active. To set the boost, simply click the switch on and adjust the volume and gain knobs to taste. Pressing the boost switch again will save your boost settings and return the pedal to its normal level of volume and gain.
