Zoom PFX9003 Palmtop Effects Unit



Availability: Discontinued
Product Code: ZOOM_PFX9003

Description Technical Specs Extended Information
The new ZOOM PFX9003 has an awesome array of effects and tools for musicians in an incredibly compact palm-sized package. Read on for complete information.

VAMS (Variable Architecture Modeling System) hybrid modeling technology
 
VAMS is a hybrid technology that combines the advantages of analog distortion circuitry with advanced digital processing. It simulates 14 types of amp sounds plus six effect sounds with incredible accuracy. A cabinet simulator with adjustable speaker size and cabinet type further enhance flexibility. Line recordings have never been so easy or sounded so great.
 
All-new ARRM (Auto-Repeat Real-time Modulation) function
 
ARRM stands for "Auto-Repeat Real-time Modulation" and is a super cool new feature you'll find no where else. Using eight types of waveforms, effect parameters can be modulated in real time. You can even synchronize effects with the patterns and tempos of the built-in rhythm machine.    

60 great effects and 7-second delay
 
60 kinds of effects are included, designed for guitar and bass. There are drive-type effects using amp modeling, dynamic effects such as Compressor and Limiter, and modulation effects including vintage Chorus and Echo. Ambience effects such as "Air" and "Wide" enhance depth even using headphones. The delay module provides up to 7 seconds of delay, and delay-time can be synchronized to the built-in rhythm machine.

Zoom's "ZNR" noise reduction is also included.    

Built-in Sampling records up to 30 seconds of audio
 
Use the input jack or the built-in mic to record your own playing, or plug a CD player into the AUX IN and sample up to 30 seconds. The 9003 then allows you to playback the sample at 1/2 or 1/4 speed, without changing the pitch. You can also loop the phrase for repeat play.    

60 preset patches ready to run, plus another 60 user patches
 
A combination of effects used together is called a "patch". The 60 factory preprogrammed patches are categorized into guitar, bass, and mic patches. All are quality effects that meet the demands of professional sound engineering. Patches that you have edited as well as your very own creations can be stored in the 60 slots of the user area. The patch swap function lets you easily rearrange patches to fit the requirements of a performance.  

Center cancel function
 
This function effectively cuts the main vocal or lead guitar track positioned in the center of a stereo mix. By canceling the center, your PFX-9003 becomes a Karaoke machine when connected to a CD Player.  

Built-in drum machine
 
The integrated drum machine offers a choice of 60 standard patterns for various genres. The realistic PCM drum sounds are derived from the Zoom's famous RhythmTrak drum machines. Tempo is easily and precisely controlled using the center fader or arrow keys.    

High-sensitivity condenser mic
 
The PFX-9003 opens up all kinds of new creative possibilities for vocalists and acoustic guitar players. Zoom has developed an incredibly great-sounding micro-condenser microphone. The mic preamp can be set for one of five characteristics: flat, vocal, acoustic guitar, light distortion, or distortion. A high-pass filter helps remove the proximity effect. By mounting the PFX-9003 on a microphone stand with the optional adaptor, you can use it as a mic with built-in effects.  

Versatile tuner
 
The built-in auto-chromatic tuner automatically detects the nearest note. The Guitar/Bass tuner is also built-in that can be used for 7-string guitar or 5-string bass. Because notes are shown for each string, drop tuning, open chord tuning, and other unconventional tuning applications are made simple. The built-in mic even lets you tune acoustic instruments.  

Friendly user interface
 
Three sliders arranged on the top panel serve to quickly adjust drive gain, reverb mix, and other major patch parameters. The sliders also control patterns and tempo for the drum machine. The back-lit LCD is easy to read under all lighting conditions.    

Designed for long battery life
 
The PFX-9003 is offering up to 6 hours continuous operation on one set of 4 AAA batteries. An optional AC adaptor can also be used.  

Super compact dimensions
 
Amazingly compact, the he PFX-9003 easily slips into a shirt pocket. But despite its size, it packs a real punch: multi-effect device, tuner, rhythm machine, sampler, built-in mic, and more. With the optional belt clip, you can attach the PFX-9003 to your belt or guitar strap and take it anywhere.
