Great!

Excellent stuff. 4 stars out of 5 - just miss Retina

Doesnt work anymore !

What are you doing ??? Amplitube doesnt work anymore with IOS 8 !!!! Problem with audiobus

BAD BUY

It doesnt work with io6. version 2.7

Problem mit Reverb

Hey Leute... Kann mir mal einer sagen warum Reverb bei mir nicht funktioniert ? EQ und Compressor ist ok ...

A Giant Step Backwards

With nothing appreciably new except the opportunity to buy more stuff, I would call it a downgrade. The master section with the EQ and compressor have disappeared. Those two functions as a global master, not saved with presets, allowed me to use the app in live situations. Without them I would be forced to bring outboard gear with me negating the usefulness of the app.

Totally overpriced

You pay all that, get just a few effects, then youre expected to pay even more for extra effects... Bit much really

useless without additional in app purchases

very little is available without multiple expensive in app purchases. I completely regret this expensive purchase. offers very little compared to free apps.

Excellent reliability improvement and better sound.

This version actually improve the reliability and the sound (you need good monitors or professional headphones to fully appreciate it). Good job! IK should do more step ahead like this one.

Excellent App!!!

This app is amazing for the price. Its great for quick recording of riffs and sounds pretty good once you play with the settings a bit. The tuner is very accurate. Its best to put your phone in airplane mode as it eliminates ticks/pops & improves the sound quality. I record my guitar ideas, then plug them into my Roland Vdrums and jam along.

Crap

This an ok app, its way to expensive first off. Second a clean amp hisses so bad you cant do anything with it. There are pops and a noticeable lag. Wish i didnt spend the cash on it.

Awesome!!!!!!!!

This app is amazing. Sound quality is great and so easy to use. The only downside is the price...expensive to buy plus you need the iRig to use which puts you around $70 to $80 for both plus all the in-app purchases you can get. However I think its well worth it.

Simply awesome

This app is quite the bundle of many great things. Thankfully, I got this app when it was on sale, so five bucks more for in-app stuff. :D • The amount of pedals you get is amazing. A single real one costs more than the app, the iRig, plus the in-app pedals. On top of that, you get a recording station, amps, tuner, metronome and other things. • The sound quality is astonishing. Pretty close to the real things. Of course its going to sound a little electronic, but if you cant beat the real thing, at least get close. And it is. • The music player is an app in itself. Half the reason people play guitar is to jam along with their favourite artists. So, you can. Not everyone can play their favourite song at speed at first. So just slow it down. Want a challenge? Speed it up. Damn vocalists getting annoying? Shut them up. The no voice feature is hit and miss, it may reduce the sound quality, or it may perform as expected. First song I tried it on, it was like magic. The others not so much. Still pretty amazing though. • Price too high? Shut up, you bought a $300 dollar device, 20 bucks is nothing. Overall, great app for any guitarist.

Good app could be great

I use amplitube all the time to work out guitar and vocal pieces, i bring basic tracks from BM2 or Multitrack DAW. I have all in app purchases. I then move it all back into Multitrack DAW. Its The UI and work flow is lacking though. I would do more and use amplitube more often if it had one feature. You MUST add copy paste support having to import from the CPU makes my using the iPhone (when Im away) pointless. Come on. Everyone else is getting on board. Also, Kudos for adding the 4 track Recorder but the tape deck is cute but gets old. Something more practical -waveform would rock but at least something with time markers and a simpler queuing. Sorry but its the one thing sanoma 4track has on you.

Needs retina display, and gui updrade

The app works great, but its an eye sore. Its also a little complicated to use.

FOR EFFECTS TO WORK - TURN THE TUNER OFF!!

Like many, I could not understand why the effects I paid for did not work. I sent in an e-mail to the Amplitube folks asking for help. I did some more research and found out YOU NEED TO TURN THE TUNER OFF!! This should be on their FAQ section of their website AND a pop up window when you turn the tuner on when you use the app. Other than that, the app is great. Lots of fun.

Amplitude is a Super App

After playing with this App for one afternoon, I have to say that this is the best iPhone App Ive ever purchased. Worth every penny. The only improvement would be for it to work in parallel with the iTunes App on the iPhone instead of having to import the songs you want to play along with. That would save memory.

Wicked wicked app

This app is great dont hesitate absolutely love this app. Perfect for practicing your electric guitar with headphones. Not sure what some people are complaining about your plugging your guitar into a phone and getting really decent sounds, as for price Ive bought everything you can get worth $70 all day long. It is what it is people.

Audio Input Needs MFi Compatibility!

This is app sounds pretty good, but the ability to use it along side with other apps to write/record is limited. Please include MFi compatibility so that users can use the dock connector to input audio using accessories other than just the iRig, the ability to Import and Export audio to and from the iPod app is most useful when writing/recording songs using multiple apps. Adding audio input to the dock connector will make this app much more versatile and more useful for recording and writing. Amplitube is great for just jamming out with the iRig but with MFi compatibility it could be used for so more than just practicing and tuning your guitar on the go. Also it would increase the number of potential Amplitube users as some people already own audio input devices for the iPhone/iPod/iPad and arent willing to purchase another one just to use 1 app. It would be a smart move on IK Multimedias behalf to include this feature in a future update.

Waste of Money!!

I would first like to start off by saying that this app is very misleading! Not only does it produce very poor quality sound, it also takes at least an additional $30 to get anywhere with it! For an app that costs $19.99 I, as a consumer, expect a LOT more for what I paid. I cant even lay down a decent tune with this! Nor can I even record anything worth listening to! I am very disappointed! Very dissatisfied! And very upset that I wasted my hard earned money on such a useless app.

Needs updating

This app has great potential. However it needs the following updates: Update graphics for retina displays (iPhone 4 and up) Improve audio quality of the "speedtrainer", it sounds TERRIBLE when songs are slowed down! Other apps do a much much better job of slowing down songs for learning without that glitchy echo effect. The "no voice" option works ok, but what it really needs is the option the change the pitch up and down by semitones like all the other apps do. The metal amp only sounds metal when you put an overdrive on it and it sounds great like that but really really noisy.
