Two Channels with Individual Tone Shaping

Giving you an all-in-one live performance solution, the AER Compact 60 Mk4 features two separate channels.

Channel 1 takes is designed for instruments and features a jack input for connecting whatever you have such as electro-acoustic guitar.

Channel 2 is equipped with an XLR/jack combo input so you can connect either a microphone or even a second instrument. Using the mic/line switch you can easily set channel 2 up for your chosen source.

Furthermore, so you can get the perfect sound, each channel has its own independent EQ.

Convenient Features

If you need to power your instrument’s preamp, on the back of the AER Compact 60 you can activate 9v phantom power for Channel 1.

You also have the option for activating 48v phantom power on Channel for use with condenser microphones.

A headphone output allows you to practice privately, switching off the internal speaker when in use.

Plus, there’s a 3.5mm jack aux input allowing you to connect line level sources such as your phone or mp3 player.

Great for Effects

The AER Compact 60 IV boasts a few high-quality built-in effects to really add dimension and atmosphere to your sound.

With tis digital effects processor, the AER Compact 60 gives you access to two separate reverb effects, delay and chorus. Classic acoustic guitar effects.

If you want to, you can easily add in external effects with the Send and Return connections while the DI-out with a balanced XLR output can be switched to be with or without effects.

Furthermore, the AER Compact 60 features a footswitch input so you can connect a footswitch for dual switching, toggling on/off either internal or external effects.

Great for Gigging

AER have designed the Compact 60 acoustic amplifier with gigging in mind and as such it is very lightweight and portable.

It even comes with a gig bag so it’s even easier to carry around and get your stage set sorted quickly.
