The Hotone Omni AC is a compact acoustic simulator pedal designed to transform the sound of electric guitars and basses into convincing acoustic-style tones. Powered by an advanced DSP platform with 24-bit A/D/A conversion, it provides a wide selection of acoustic instrument simulations with natural dynamics and detailed response.
With 15 acoustic simulations, a flexible 4-band EQ, built-in voltage boost circuit, OLED display, and versatile connectivity, the Omni AC is equally useful for live performance, recording, practice, and direct-to-PA setups.
15 Acoustic Instrument Simulations
The Omni AC goes beyond conventional acoustic guitar simulation, offering 15 different acoustic-style voices covering a variety of instruments and tonal characters.
The available simulations include sounds inspired by:
- Steel-string acoustic guitars
- Nylon-string guitars
- Acoustic basses
- Double basses
- Other acoustic instrument configurations
This makes it possible to access acoustic-style sounds without carrying an additional acoustic instrument to every performance.
Advanced DSP & High Headroom
The pedal uses a high-quality 24-bit A/D/A DSP platform designed to provide detailed sound reproduction and responsive dynamics.
An internal voltage boost circuit operates from a standard 9V DC supply while providing additional headroom, helping maintain a clean and dynamic signal even when the pedal is driven harder.
Flexible 4-Band EQ
A built-in 4-band parametric-style EQ section provides additional control over the simulated acoustic tones. The adjustable frequency ranges allow you to shape the sound for different instruments, amplifiers, PA systems, and playing environments.
The EQ provides up to ±12 dB of boost or cut, making it possible to add presence, remove unwanted frequencies, or tailor the acoustic simulation to your setup.
OLED Display & Presets
The built-in high-resolution OLED display provides clear visual feedback while editing and navigating sounds.
The Omni AC stores up to 15 presets, allowing you to quickly recall different acoustic simulations and EQ configurations during a performance.
Practice & Recording Features
The pedal includes an Aux In and headphone output, making it useful for practicing and jamming with backing tracks without requiring additional equipment.
A USB connection allows firmware updates and preset management through free PC/Mac software.
