AmpliTube iRig -- iPhone Practice Amp

Sweet jesus,

talk about a mobile studio.

This is the only thing that made me think about purchasing an iPhone or an iPad

It's really cool on the iPad, due to the larger screen. I use mine at work on lunch. Guitar-->iRig-->iPad, and some cheap AKG headphones. Sounds really good, IMO.

Now shit just got interesting:

iPads and iPhones To Get MIDI Support With iOS 4.2

wow, I may have to get an iPad with how awesome this is getting.

Toontrack, I'm calling you out!! I want EZ Drummer on my iPad, with a simple sequencer and importing of wavs so I can record to a click at home and work out drum tracks on lunch/airplane/etc.

Is it a free or paid update?

Lots of it free, though we also added gear available for in-app purchase.

Interesting that the MIDI can also work through WiFi using Apple's API. A WiFi MIDI pedalboard would be absolutely killer.

Hint, hint...

What a great guitar rig too. Head to the gig with your guitar, your pedalboard and your ipad. Awesome.

I was thinking of getting a POD HD, but if IK comes out with a wifi MIDI board to work with this, I don't think I'd bother. IPad+iKlip+MIDI board and that's all I need for jams at my friends' house (they have a small PA).

I think iRig may be one of my first purchases when i get an iPad. A pedalboard would totally seal the deal.

An word on the 2.0 update for the iPad? That's the only version I have, since that's generally what I prefer to use when doing this sort of thing.

called the local store to hear if they had one of these interfaces today, turns out they had one left so I had the guy put it away for me.
When I came to pick it up some temp had sold it!
Sitting in a hotel with out an amp sucks, and practicing unplugged gets old fast.

I think you'll enjoy it. I'm looking forward to the 2.0 upgrade on the ipad, because it has the recorder option. It means all i need at work is a spare guitar and the ipad i already carry anyway. The sounds are better than what i was getting out of a pocket pod as well.

I've ordered one, guess i can use it on my next trip...
Btw, can you download it for the ipad for free if you have the iphone version? I thought I'd buy an ipad after christmas.

Unfortunately no. You can download the free version, but if you buy the $20 version for the iPhone, you have to buy it again for the iPad. Of course you can run the iPhone version on the iPad, but it won't be optimized for the screen.

This is one of the things I don't like about Amplitube iRig. Then again, the app is only 20 bucks.

Griffin Technology: StompBox - Pedal Controller for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch

I wonder if this would work with Amplitube iRig.

Darren!!! Stop tempting me :lol:

Seriously, that looks incredible. To think a rig now could be an ipad and a pedal. So awesome. Makes me think of my crappy old Crate 20 watt practice amp when I was a kid that cost about as much as an iPad and was just terrible.

The iPad with the iRig 2.0 update with the 8-track recorder is fucking awesome.
