Alesis AKIRA Multi-Effects Processor

The Alesis Akira is a multi-effects processor that is strategically priced to target the entry-level to mid-level recording enthusiasts and musicians. It truly is a reasonably priced multi-effects box with sounds that set it apart from other available units. In addition, its X, Y, and Z parameter knobs allow real-time, playable control over program parameters, making Akira much more than a "set-and-forget" rack mount signal processor. Akira boasts 24-bit analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog conversion, stereo analog I/O on balanced TRS 1/4 in. jacks, and an internal switching power supply capable of powering the unit with input voltages ranging from 90-230 volts AC. There's also MIDI I/O for program changes and continuous controller transmit and receive, for additional real-time control over the effects.
