The pedal features over 60 effects in total, categorized as follows:
- Module FX : Noise Gate, NG+Boost, NG+Compress
- AMP Modules: 1-15 for Guitar Amp Simulation, 16-20 for Bass Amp Simulation
- Module MOD : Chorus, Phaser, Tremolo, Flanger, Vibrato, Univibe, Autofilter
- Module DLY : Analog, Ducking, dTape, Dual, Lofi
- Module REV : Room, Hall, SWELL, Spring, Shimmer, Cloud
- Module CAB : 1-15 for Electric Guitar Cabinet Simulation, 16-20 for Bass Cabinet Simulation

Presets and Tuner
The Tank Mini comes with 21 factory presets. These can be recalled and customized. The built-in tuner function assists in accurate instrument tuning.
OTG Recording and Bluetooth Music
The pedal supports Mobile Phone OTG Recording Function, allowing direct recording to compatible mobile devices. It also features Wireless BT Music Function, enabling audio playback through the pedal for practice or jamming.
Algorithme de modélisation audio ANN
The Tank Mini utilizes ANN (Audio Neural Network) Audio Modeling Technology. This technology allows the pedal to learn and accurately reproduce the sound characteristics of various amps, single pedals, or cabinets, achieving high-fidelity timbre sharing. This enables the Tank series to restore sound details of different devices.

Comment réaliser un clonage sonore :
- Connect a classic monoblock (or similar device) to the sound card. The left channel is the original sound, and the right channel is connected to the classic monoblock. Generate audio through the host recording software.
- Utilisez le logiciel ANN officiel pour modéliser, apprendre, reproduire et imiter cet audio, en générant un format AM2. file.
- AM2 files can be loaded and imported into Tank series products for use.
