## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Deception total !

*2023-09-01, version 1.2.2*

Sound very crap dont buy it !

### 1/5 — Absolute NOT usable

*2022-12-07*

On iPad 8th Generation and iPad Pro M1 with updated iOS extreme (I mean EXTREME) crackles and distotions and App crashes.
Happens with different App Settings, Amp Settings (in the App), Interfaces and Guitars.
Similar Apps like Klevgrand Stark and Tonestack don't have ANY issues!
In my opinion a classic IK thing: Release App and forget App. Looking at Lursson Suite (over 100 bucks and no updated since 5 years)

### 1/5 — Non va

*2019-11-16*

Lasciate stare, soldi buttati.
I suoni sarebbero belli ma non va!  Si spegne quando vuole, ci ho suonato massimo 10 minuti e poi non esce piú suono.
Non funziona neanche il supporto.
Avoid!

### 1/5 — Robó

*2016-03-06*

Tire mi dinero estos cuates se quieren hacer millonarios con la misma gata pero revolcada la aplicación esta carísima y es lo mismo que las otras apesar de cara todo te quieren cobrar pero más caro no la compren Apple debería de poner una cláusula para 
Que te puedan devolver tu dinero 
O cuanto menos que te lo cambien por algo mejor

### 4/5 — It's good! But...

*2025-06-06*

It's a much inferior version to the PC version. And even after a decade since its release, there are no options to purchase an overdrive pedal or other effects. And they don't offer the option to purchase the Mark IIc+ or the Mark V.

### 4/5 — Presets

*2025-02-01, version 1.2.4*

Ummm…would be nice to transfer presets between devices or just to back them up.

### 4/5 — Bien avec Rig2HD

*2021-05-12*

Quelques presets sont adaptés à la basse, c’est l’un d’ailleurs des plus utilisables pour cet instrument, avec un autre Amplitube (icone couleur or), mais bizarrement pas Amplitube Orange qui comporte à mon goût seulement deux presepts correct pour bassiste.
Il faut essayer tous les presepts, car il n’existe pas de liste distincte pour basse et guitare contrairement à l’application Garage.

### 4/5 — Much better than expected.

*2016-04-23*

The Express and Lone Star amps aren't included. I have it as a separate app than the Fender edition. I don't understand why they cannot be combined.  Of course an app is no substitute for the real thing, but it can go where the real thing cannot. Love that the tube configurations on the back can be altered.

### 5/5 — Insanely good for Metal

*2024-01-21*

I use this to jam at home and record tracks in GarageBand and I can’t articulate how impressed I am with this sim. Sounds completely authentic to Mesa and there are tons of options to hone your sound. Also, I find it to be very reliable when I’m laying tracks down. Good investment.

### 5/5 — Can really dial in a great sound!

*2021-12-11*

Well worth the money.

### 5/5 — Sehr sehr gut!

*2021-03-30*

Bisher war ich nie so wirklich von iPad-Apps angetan. Allerdings ist die Mesa-Serie von Amplitube meiner Meinung nach noch die beste App. Gut, man sollte natürlich Mesa Boogies mögen, aber das ist ja klar...

Ich liebe den Mark IV und ich habe bisher noch kaum eine Ampsim gefunden, die dem Original so nahe kam. Petrucci-Sounds sind damit sehr einfach zu machen!
Satte 5 Sterne!

### 5/5 — Le vrai son Mesa !!

*2020-04-27*

Foncez dessus tête baissée...c’est juste parfait !! Fan de cette grande marque, j’ai en possession une tête mark 2c+ et mark 3, la sensation du jeu et présent sur chaque note, bref je recommande !

### 5/5 — Mesa Smart

*2020-04-17*

Seit Jahren spielen ich einen Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier.
Der Sound in der App kommt dem Original wirklich sehr nah. Die Investition hat sich gelohnt 💪🏼

### 5/5 — Best For In Home Recording!

*2020-01-09*

I’ve been using this for all my bands songs currently because playing the amp to loud isn’t a option now. I link it up through GB and with a little time to adjust the EQ to my signature tone the guitar tracking sounds great! I’ve shown people and they think I’m using a actual rig!

### 5/5 — Great app for Boogie artists

*2019-09-23*

Perfect app for having Boogie tones on the go. A must have for Boogie lovers like myself.

### 5/5 — Mesa Boogie...

*2016-11-02*

Bester Amplitube Sound bis jetzt von IK....

### 5/5 — Love it

*2016-06-29*

Great tool. It captures the sound of the Mesa Boogie at a very small price. Great for begginers or for the guitarist on a budget. I even hook up my Boss volume pedal with no problem. Also check the presets for even more awesome sounds. I only wish that instead of a flanger the app should had a chorus pedal. But is not a big deal.
Great Job!
