### 2/5 — November Rain preset does not work

*2021-07-01, version 2.1.0*

The app closes.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2018-11-10*

Great app for making you own settings or just using the presets. All of the presets work and sound great except preset 7 which is November rain. Preset crashes app and can not use it. If it was not for this I would say the app is flawless.

### 3/5 — Love it, but preset 7 crashes the app

*2016-04-23*

I enjoy playing with this, but preset 7 crashes every time I try it. Please fix this. 😭

### 2/5 — Good but faulty!

*2016-02-16*

App auto closes it self whenever I select November rain preset!! Please fix this.

### 2/5 — Needs to be fixed

*2014-10-18, version 1.5.1*

Cool idea, great pedals, but  volume and hissing feedback sound needs fixing.  I tried all sorts of different cables, speakers, and headphones.  Still screeching feedback rendering unusable.

### 4/5 — Awesome!!!

*2014-06-17, version 1.5.1*

Very easy to use, great effects and best of all you can use it anywhere!

### 1/5 — Update DUD!!!

*2013-10-19, version 1.5*

Thanks for the update with the new iOS. Now the app totally does not work.  What a joke.

### 4/5 — Love it

*2013-09-22*

Top app grate sound but the only thing that I can find that let's it down is no drums like amplitube

### 4/5 — Good but no recent updates

*2013-07-15, version 1.0*

I love this app but I have an iPodTouch 5th gen and I would love to see an update for this app so it actually fits the screen.
FOR THE WAH PEDAL: Could you guys make it so you can tap the pedal to control how you want it to sound. Like the way the in app metronome works. Just tap to set the speed of the pedal. Instead of having someone else slide their finger to create those cool wah sounds.
Thank you for reading this.

### 2/5 — Amplitubes Slash

*2013-07-15, version 1.0*

Don't waste your money on this app. Volume is very poor as on the IPAD. Now if you want to put it on your Mac. Then you'll be jamming.

### 1/5 — Fu***d off

*2013-05-12*

I payed £10.49 for this and then tried to use is on my iPad and realised that I have to pay another £10.49 for that, why can't it be like every other app? Pay once and use on any device, ridiculous there is no way I'm paying again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 4/5 — Ray

*2013-03-03*

Good app!

So ampkit very not bad too

### 1/5 — No todo funciona

*2013-01-04, version 1.0*

Acabo de comprar la aplicación y cuando quiero importar una canción desde mi librería de iPod la aplicación se cierra. También quiero bajar el efecto wah wah de slash y dice que tengo que registrar mi irig y cuando quiero hacerlo solo se queda una pantalla cargando y no me permite realizar la registracion. Esto es inaceptable siendo compañías de tan grande reconocimiento; no gaste más de 60 dólares para que no me permita usar la aplicación por completo. Por favor hagan algo

### 1/5 — Suddenly turned to crap!

*2022-12-20, version 2.1.1*

I’ve been using Orange as well as Slash models with iRig for several years. Now suddenly, guitar signal is static and ugly. Also, uploaded music playback is sped up and fragmented as if the speed toggle is turned all the way up.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on iPhone 13 on IOS 15,15.0.1, 15.0.2

*2021-10-17*

When on earth do you plan to fix this app to work? We paid a lot of money for this app compared to prices of other apps and we are getting the worst support in the history of technology. 

How about you get someone on this as a priority and get it fixed in the next couple of days. You already have some versions working so clearly it isn’t a hard job. 

If you can’t fix it how about refunding every single person that bought this.

### 1/5 — AmpliTube slash

*2020-11-01*

Waste of money don’t download doesn’t work and has the cheek to offer more gear for more money

### 1/5 — November Rain preset crashes

*2019-02-17, version 2.1.0*

When I select November Rain preset, the application crashes. I bought this app for using this particular preset. Please fix.

### 1/5 — 2y and still not fixed

*2018-09-29*

2ys a go someone stated the November Rain present crashes the app. 2ys later and that’s still a problem

Come on, it needs fixing, I so want to use this app but I won’t pay for more features while the basics don’t work.

### 1/5 — Not what I had on mind

*2016-12-09, version 2.0.0*

Only 3 effects?   Great.   Sound is horrible

### 1/5 — Repurchase?

*2016-01-12*

Now I need to purchase this again, after one year? AND the basic Amplitude disappeared. 
Bad bad

### 1/5 — This stuff is awful - beyond belief.

*2015-01-16, version 1.6*

For Christmas, my kids bought me this company’s iRig BlueBoard (foot pedal), iRig Midi Interface and iRig Microphone together with a suite of relevant software (AmpliTube, etc.)  Nothing worked.  And, perhaps I should explain that for 40 years I was a professor of mathematics and cognitive science at Northwestern, UMass, Purdue, and Indiana Universities - as well as being a software developer and experienced user of computer-based technologies.  I’ve now retired and play a harmonica in several local bands (blues, country, rock, bluegrass).  I mention this only to make it clear that I’m not an inexperienced user of these kinds of technologies.

When I first experienced problems with IK Multimedia’s gadgets and software, I contacted their tech support people, and all they did was to tell me to read their manuals.  I did this.  And, to prove that I read the manuals thoroughly, I went though one of the manuals and make line-by-line editorial comments pointing out how nearly every sentence was either: (1) unhelpful, (2) completely unclear, (3) incomplete, or (4) completely wrong (in the sense that what was said simply wasn’t accurate).

Then, I once again simplified my questions and contacted IK’s tech support people.  This time, I did get a few suggestions about possible solutions to my problems.  But, once again, virtually every sentence in this message was either:  (1) completely unclear, (2) incomplete, or (3) completely wrong (in the sense that what was said simply wasn’t accurate).  Also, the tech support person stated that some of the problems that I confronted could only be solved by purchasing more equipment that performed functions that IK Multimedia’s web site claims that their products are intended to do.

Next, I tried going to IK Multimedia’s web site to see if there were other ways to get technical support.  The contact numbers that were given reported that “the tech support lines were down.”  And now, three days later, “the lines are still down." 

I’ve now seem to have no options except to ask for my money back on these purchases.  …  If you want to get a quick verification of what I’ve said, try downloading the things that are called “users manuals” for IK Multimedia’s products.  The shortcomings will be obvious.  These “users manuals” are not really users manuals at all.  The simply describe what the products claim to do, but they give almost no information about how you (the user) could actually do any of these things.  Also, these “users guides” contain a bunch of nearly identical photographs which contribute almost nothing to the meaningfulness of the text.  …  In more than 40 years of using a lot of computer-based tools, I’ve never encountered anything this bad in terms of overstated claims, completely useless “users guides”, and dismal tech support.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2014-09-20, version 1.5.1*

Save your money and skip this. Ampitube is noisy and sounds nothing like a decent guitar sound.Crashes often and has audio bus issues. Should be a $1.99 app, not $16.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2013-12-27*

I was so exited to find out that I could get slash's gear so I bought it even though it was £5 but then I effects 2 and 3 are the the same so I don't get the wah wah pedal which is the main effect of slash that I want!

### 5/5 — Works great for me!

*2014-11-03, version 1.5.1*

This app has been working well for me. The other complaints about hissing, etc. just use the noise hate on full and it cuts out the noise. The amp setting work great and give the tone that I like about Slash. Overall I have been satisfied with this version, iPad and PC software versions of the Slash amplitube. I use this app with the iRig stomp pedal.

### 5/5 — Amplitube

*2014-09-12, version 1.5.1*

Great sounding app but what happened to the wah pedal?

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-06-02*

sold my line6 pod after hearing this app very very very great tone out of this well worth 15 bucks

### 5/5 — It's so easy!!!

*2013-08-05*

I've had this app for just 24 hours & I still haven't finished exploring all of its dead easy to use features. Firstly are the presets that will instantly give you any clean, crunch, lead sound you hear on AFD at one touch. Eg, the chorus flavoured intro sound for paradise city is instantly accessible then switch seamlessly on another preset to a lead tone for the rhythm/lead. It's that simple. You can swap & change his signature effect pedals & amp settings to your hearts desire,but if all you need is one of Mr Slash's sounds then hey, this is it. You can play along with downloaded G n R or Slash's tracks or record your own sounds.
I've been playing guitar for over twenty years & I've wasted my money on some junk but this app gives you access to sounds that would cost £1000's if you bought this equipment piece by piece. I've used this app on both my '59 reissue & my teaching guitar that cost me £50 & both sound as good. So it's money we'll spent.
 All I want now is a Jimmy Page app then I'm happy.

### 5/5 — DUMBFOUNDED!!!!

*2013-05-31*

Buy!!!!! Buy!!!!!!!! Tried it thinking it was just a fun toy but boy was I wrong! Tried it with my gibson les paul studio sounded FAB!!! If ur worried DON'T BE!!!

### 5/5 — Awesome practice tool

*2013-02-03*

I practice with it all the time , the headphones keep the family happy .

### 5/5 — Phenomenal App

*2013-01-05*

This is an amazing App. Sounds spectacular played through my epiphone slash's snakepit signature, and very easy to use. My only problem is that it crashes when I try to upload a song to play into, and sometimes it can take up to three attempts to load a song, and there are certain backing tracks from iTunes that it simply won't load. Any suggestions?
Other than that, an amazing app!!

### 5/5 — Slash Amplitube

*2013-01-02, version 1.0*

Great app!!! 
The only problem is, 99% of the time I can't import songs from my iPod library.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2013-01-02, version 1.0*

Good app so far.

### 5/5 — Wah Dist

*2012-12-21*

You have to register to get the bonus wah dist other than that its pretty cool.
