Meh... it’s ok
It works well... lots of “pay for play” options that are affordable. The one thing I want to use it for doesn’t work for me, so I’m extremely disappointed. The feature that doesn’t work for me is: you can’t import DRM protected music into the looper. If I want to steal the song I wouldn’t do it by using this product, so not being able to loop or slow down a song to learn it because it is DRM protected is quite disappointing and is where it gets 3 stars from. It gives you the option to select songs from your library that it can’t import, it just shouldn’t show them if it can’t import them.

Ignore the numpties...
This is brilliant if used properly. Some fantastic amp modelling especially the Orange and Fender amps. Yes, there are in app purchases but the main app has plenty to keep you going and just buy the others as and when they are on sale. The developers have to earn a living and companies like IK need to spend a lot on R&D and get that back (they are not perfect by any means e.g., having to repurchase sound banks again if lost...come on IK, once we have bought and paid for a license we should be able to re-download when we need to without being penalised). People expect way too much for free...this is professional grade software and good software costs money...I know, I’ve been in software development for nearly 20 years. Keep it coming IK!

Best app ever 5 stars
All my pedals in an app!!! The bad reviews are not justified I believe you thought you could get the whole Shabang for nothing! I almost didn’t buy the app because of the bad reviews. The description for the app is perfect and yes you may have to buy a few extra pedals for your own personalized effects but try buying a pedal for $3.99 at the music store! Good Luck! Great app great effects installed and yes I will buy more pedals!

Perfect or rehearsal of songs
I use this app and an irig pro to go over my set list and to learn new tunes. Plug in and go, don’t have to set up my real rig and I don’t annoy my Wife and neighbours with my bass tone and volume. Also used it with garage band to record guitar,bass and vocals for our demo and have even used it onstage plugged straight into the desk. Also has a loop and speed adjustment to get those fiddly bits under my fingers. Looking forward to future updates guys, keep up the good work 👍

NO SUPPORT WHATSOEVER!
Don’t waste your time sending on-line requests to IK MULTIMEDIA for problems related to AMPLITUBE......they never respond. They promise a reply within 24-48 hrs, then deliver NOTHING. And they don’t post most of their negative reviews, including mine which no doubt will include this one too. These guys are only interested in selling their adwares......beware of these scammers. Their 2.9/5 rating should warn you.

Save your money and get anything else
I was excited when I first read about this, but for it to be anything but an amp, they want you to spend the amount of money as actual gear would cost. My AMPLIFi Fx cost me $100 used and came with dozens of amp models, cabs, pedals, effects and the app was free. New patches are free.
This on the other hand is complete garbage where they want to nickel and dime you for everything. I spent $20 so I can play my guitar thru my iPad on one amp model. They won’t get another dime from me. Do your research. I wasn’t scared off by the bad reviews and I should have. This isn’t about the musicians at all.

Help
A loud feedback and ground to
Everything you need IS HERE
I have no idea how people think this app is incomplete or expensive (I suppose over 99p for an app is a lot of money for some) but honestly, there is a pile of amps here ready to rocK! if you can’t make music with the included amps, apps aren’t your problems. The Amplitube amps really sound great. If you want to spend the price of a Starbucks coffee on a slew of vintage amps, go nuts. You won’t be disappointed. And if it doesn’t sound amazing, your setup is to blame. I’ve plugged my iPad and iPhone into a recording interface, a power amp and a Marshall cab and it sounds killer. Seriously, this is one of the best apps on the store, let alone best amp sims.

Please support Audio Unit extension
There are some things we could do better and more stable if you start supporting AU . In AUM we could control any amplitube Knob with MIDI, like the Wah for example using rozeta LFO
Not possible to transfer purchased items to iPhone
App has a lot app purchases inside. Without these extras it barely usable. Expect to spend about $40 for this and that. However, it’s not possible to transfer purchased items to iPhone. I contacted support and they responded to all other issues, but for this one (can’t transfer purchased items) they just keep silence and do not reply. Also, while app has decent core functionality, it’s not polished and has a lot of bugs, like metronom will not start on first tap, need to stop and start it again. This app and it’s extras are priced unreasonably high for present quality.
