Guitar pickup impedance adapter

The Motu ZBox has the crucial element that the other guitar amp modeling plug-ins are missing which is never being able to replicate the true sounds and feel of playing into a real guitar amp. Motu Z Box offers the signal path that simply cannot be modeled in software: the proper input impedance of a real guitar amplifier.

ZBox matches the output impedance of your guitar to the impedance of a non-amp input, such as the mic or instrument preamp inputs on your audio interface. Without proper impedance matching, your guitar won’t sound natural or feel right. Z Box's unique advantage? Authentic matching circuits that emulate the two-jack switching network found on many classic amplifiers, complete with analog simulation of the input tube grid. Motu Z delivers the most authentic amplifier impedance matching available for the absolute truest sound and feel from your guitar. Motu Box is the missing link for digital guitar processing, providing the hardware-driven input characteristics required to truly emulate a real guitar amp.

If you use Digital Performer's Custom 59 amp model plug-in, or a third-party guitar plug-in product like IK Multimedia Amplitube, Waves GTR, Native Instruments Guitar Rig, or similar guitar modeling software, use ZBox to further enhance the authenticity of the tones you play from these products.
