∞ AmpliTube for iPhone gives you guitar tone on the go

Written by

IK Multimedia on Wednesday released AmpliTube for iPhone, giving users the opportunity to play guitar with amps and effects on their iPhone.

AmpliTube and the iRig adapter gives you the ability to play through three simultaneous stompbox effects, an amp, a cabinet and a microphone.

On the iPhone, AmpliTube comes with five amp models (clean, crunch, lead, metal, bass) with full tone and drive controls, 11 stompbox effects (delay, flanger, phaser, overdrive, distortion, filter, wah, fuzz, octaver, chorus, noise filter), five speaker cabinets (1×12”, 2×12”, 4×12” A & B”, 1×15) and two microphones (dynamic and condenser). You also get a chromatic digital tuner and a metronome.

One of the great things about the new software is that you can import and play along with songs or backing tracks. Another important feature is that you can create, save and recall up to 36 presets.

    Hi Jim,
    Do any of the software versions support recording a track to be stored on the iPhone or iPad? I’d be most interested in keeping this on hand to “jot down” ideas as I discover them, but from all that I’ve seen so far it doesn’t seem to support saving.

      I agree with you, that’s what I want too. I can’t find any way to do it though. I’m taking a deeper look at the apps this week, so I’ll post that when I’m done.
