What a mess

Ik

Great recording tool for on the go artists

I don’t know what all the complaints are about AmpliTube on iPad. I had no problems using this app, lots of free stomp boxes and great selection of free amps as well . I have a fender tube amp that I barely touched since acquiring this app. I use it with a iRig 2 interface and am currently purchasing the iRig acoustic amd the iRig Pre so I can record with my condensed mic. I also purchased the 8 track recorder but I wish I had more information on how to use it . I use the AmpliTube CS on my iPhone and the AmpliTube on my iPad mini . Does anybody know what the difference is ?

I bought this hone in on what style of amp I prefer

Seems pretty good, amps all have a different sound/feel to them. Using 3rd gen iPad Pro which runs app great on low latency and over sampling. No noise/pops/clicks. Not a lot of amps provided in basic app though. I actually bought this years ago, cannot recall what I paid, but for messing about with and quiet practice it’s more than adequate. I have not played through most of the amps provided for real so cannot really comment on accuracy of modelling. It is kinda cool to have a z-wreck for a fiver though. Which is an amp I am considering buying. One thing all of these amp apps should be able to do is treat amps and cabs as separate and have on/off switch for them, as it supports audio bus I would like to able to send say the z-wreck to another app with celestion IR cabs.

Just no

Making your customers pay full price for both iPad and iPhone versions, especially for add ons is a joke. Bias and jam up are better to begin with before this kick in the teeth. I won’t be a continuing customer.

Drums in Looper

The looper is great, but would be more useful if it could be used simultaneously with the drum loops. Pasting an audio track to an empty loop track would be great too, as well as the ability to clear a recorded loop track individually. Lastly, the ability to save and load previous loops would be nice.

The amps and effects sound really nice! Keep up the great work!

Pop ups are back, works like the free version

It become almost unusable. Every time I try to use it now it goes into the background and opens an ad when I try to do anything.
Was 4 - 5 stars until the foolishness started...

I love the tones, but it takes 10,000 years to download

Wakeup and work on it guys, there’s BIAS out there.

Hype over experience

Ikmultimedia uses its software as a marketing tool to try and hook a consumer into its products line and then trying to sell you something else. Bugs are never repaired and features stop working as soon as Apple makes any changes to its operating system. The basic amp models are great which makes me want to persevere but many things that are supposed to work with it, such as Istomp simply don’t work any more with iPads and when questions are raised you are simply assured engineers are working on it. Tired of wasting so much time and money on it but when you look on website hoping for bug fixes or updates they just try to sell you something else. Need to employ some engineers instead of PR men and marketing gurus.

Simply frustrating

When I first got this app several years ago, it was great.....then I tried to use it with SampleTank...yikes. I’m telling you right now, IK just doesn’t make this worth it anymore. I have sunk quite a bit of money into this and their other programs and nothing seems to work consistently. I’m at the point I wish they had a time machine app so I could go back and get my money back....but that probably wouldn’t work right either

Great app

The app over all is amazing to use it saves me so much money and time. Instead of going out and buying 1,000 worth of gear i can spend 20 to 40 dollars on 10 amps and sound effects. I am wondering if ik multimedia can add some new amps and pedals in a newer update like EVH amps, Marshall amps, and some other distortion pedals like death. I hope ik multimedia will please add some new gear thank you for the great sound hope to see new things in the future. Ps i got some money to spend I’m only going to spend it on the new gear if you want some money i need new gear.
