FACE MI

The Mako Series ACS1 Amp+Cab Sim was first announced in January 2021. Since then Walrus Audio had multiple updates based on customer feedback and today they are incredibly excited to announce a huge update with Firmware version 2.0.

Walrus Audio ACS1 2.0 Firmware Update

For this update, Walrus Audio completely rebuilt all three amp models from the ground up. Further pushing what the Sharc Processor can do, Walrus Audio has taken what they've learned from the previous versions, feedback from customers, artists, beta-testers, and Reddit keyboard warriors to make an even closer replication of these beloved vintage amps. You’ll notice more gain and saturation, higher gain from the boost, improved filter cutoff frequencies, and more!

Firmware updates 2.0 include:

Improved tube-driven breakup
Higher gain and more saturation across all three amp models
New organic & and more lively IRs created by David Hislop and Kenyon Reed at Tone Factor that capture the feel and air movement using the actual Amps that the ACS1 is modeling
Enhanced Boost with up to +4dB more gain

Update your ACS1 now for free at www.walrusaudio.io.
*Note - To update, you’ll need a Micro USB data cable and a computer using a Chrome browser.
