Melofty Axom Max Hybrid Audio Processor

The MELOFTY Axom Max is an advanced hybrid audio processor for guitar, bass, recording and sound design. It combines amplifier and instrument modelling, DeepSynth™ synthesis, MFIM™ Tone Capture, AI-assisted tone creation, multi-effects and a professional USB audio interface in a single floorboard unit.

With over 400 amplifier models, more than 210 cabinet models, over 130 effect models and more than 70 instrument models, the Axom Max offers an extensive range of sonic possibilities. DeepSynth™ provides access to over 50 synthesizer sounds and transforms the guitar into a synthesizer without requiring a MIDI pickup. MFIM™ Tone Capture allows users to create digital models of their own amplifiers, pedals and cabinets. The processor also supports NAM A2 files and third-party WAV impulse responses.

The AI-powered MELOFTY AI Tone Model helps create sounds from text prompts, automatically combining suitable amplifier and tone models. Vocal Instrumentalization transforms vocals into instrument-like sounds in real time, with the option to add harmonies, pitch correction, reverb and delay.

Operation is handled via a 7-inch HD touchscreen with drag-and-drop editing. Two independent effect chains, each with up to nine slots, can be configured in series, parallel or split/merge arrangements. For live performance, the unit features nine footswitches with individual mini-displays, four configurable footswitch modes and six Subpatch scenes per preset.

The integrated stereo looper offers up to 60 minutes of recording time and includes Undo/Redo, Reverse, Half-Speed and Auto Record functions. The Axom Max also operates as a professional 8-in/8-out USB audio interface, supporting both dry and wet recording as well as reamping. Connectivity includes MIDI, an FX loop, balanced XLR outputs, a headphone output and a combination microphone/line input with 48V phantom power.

Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, computer software, a mobile app and MELOFTY Cloud provide extensive options for managing, organising and sharing sounds, presets and custom Tone Capture models.
