What to know before buying

The EXP/CTRL jack supports an external expression pedal or control footswitch. A TRS cable is required, and the listing says the standard version has no pedal.

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent about IR capacity and processing: it cites 20 IR/NAM slots overall and 10 dedicated slots each for NAM and IR in one claim, elsewhere says 10 user IR files, and gives both 48 kHz / 24-bit USB recording and 24-bit / 44.1kHz processing. Battery life is stated as up to 4–5 hours, while customer feedback is mixed on battery life, sound quality and NAM functionality. Confirm the selected model’s supported formats and capacities if these details are important. The stated playtime is a manufacturer claim, not a guaranteed runtime.
