question!! what do i do..if im playing a gig and i get an incoming call??? lol
i wonder what happens if someone calls you during a show..
This stuff is the coolest. The problem is, It's hard to use it playing live as you need a foot pedal switching from clean to distortion.
The metronome switches on or off. I like to import drum tracks from my drummer and play with those. If you play on the road.. this is a great app for writing songs and recording in hotel rooms etc. It makes a nice light traveling recording studio for your ideas.
I've always wanted to listen to someone play D then G over and over.
I appreciated how it was like he was discovering this shit out for himself. Could totally see myself messing around with that expression on my face. I just ordered my iRig today, so in two weeks I'll be sitting in front of my ipod touch with a guitar and a "wtf" expression myself :D
@cheberli09 I am talking about the auto setting which is supposed to be automatic and is demonstrated as such in the video. You are talking about the tilt setting. While the tilt setting works as advertised, I find it quite impractical in that I don't have a third hand to move my iphone up and down while I'm using the other two to play the guitar. What I did find though, was that the auto setting was much more effective with the noise filter turned off. I guess it filtered the sweep out as noise
thats pretty bad ass to have a recording studio on the go like that
@jameschoi999 Yes, you can turn every knob on the amp... including the on/off switch. It does sound that good. It sounds even better if they would implement the use of a dock interface. The app does act like an amp and not just a pedal.
iRig is cool. We use it a lot for our app and it always works great.
Our app RockProdigy is based on real time pitch recognition, that means that it hears your guitar and gives you feedback in real time on your lessons and songs.
Thanks iRig!
Very useful review. Comprehensive and practical. Thank you.
@cheberli09 I actually got it to work with some adapters, and it actually works fine. no screeching and virtually no delay. the only problem is, is that there's a little fizzing noise in the background when i play. it's not a huge deal but i kinda wish it was gone.
@Shiraz157 Yes you can. I run it on my Fender Frontman 15G solid state. It makes a nice clean speaker for it. You just need a guitar cable with a headphone jack at the other end.
how do you connect the Iphone on a guitar amplifier ? Have you a special cable? What about the impedance between the output spekers and input amplifier?
Good stuff Stephan. Thanks.
You could easily get rid of the metronome while recording by just recording with head phones so the app doesn't pick up any other exterior sounds
@FrogbadPuddock I'm not sure what the model is on this... it's just a clip for mounting your iPhone in the windshield of your car and I just took the clip part and mounted it to a mic clip. Maybe I'll make a video about it.
@ilPeval I didn't see a response but i'll try to help, you could try some deep delay effect with a britich amp setting with low gain and add a bit of fuzz and some chorus effect too, that should do the trick for most "deep-delay-melting-away" kind of effect, you can play around with the EQ too to find a good tone. thats what i use anyway. hope i could help a bit x)
@tiefighter94 I would try a noise gate, pedal or rack mount, between the phone and amp. It may or may not work, but most music stores will let you try it if you bring in the IPhone. Try befor u buy is always good advice. My theory is that at the end of the day this is not much different than processing your tone befor the amp which usually needs a noise gate to get rid of buzz. I know the app has one, but obviously its not working well.
Great review. thanks.
Great review. Thanks.
would i be able to save the preset and load it again on amplitube?
How many is the latency? Is it faster than a sound card with the PC??
Am I the only one who thought of RUSH - 2112(Discovery) whenever he played his chords?
thank you so much, it helped me enough
@tiefighter94 no dude..... if you want it in that way just plug it with a normal jack and get some adapters wich you can connect your male jack cable of your guitar.... but the problem is your laptops sound card is not design for audio interface... and you will be having delay sounds on it and high latency it means theres a lot of screech going on.... if you want to play in it using your laptop... buy a usb audio interface... you could buy it from 150 dollars or 170....
@ThePinkCamal hi ive got the same probleme yesterday and i delete the amplitube app. and i reload it and everything sound great..good luck
Awesome..... now all I need is an Iphone
It`s great but my problem is with iOS 4.2.1 on my iPhone 3G, all I can hear using the iRig interface and Amplitube software is noice and intermittent sounds while I try playing something.
I think it really depends on the iP software.
Can you plug the iRig into a laptop and run the desktop version of Amplitube and use it that way?
Im getting this, i too need an iphone as i have a droid. Quit bashing this dude. Hes not playing with all hes got obviously due to the fact its a demo. G over D isnt all hes playing, he did a few riffs. He was playing chords with full range to demonstrate the rigs ability to produce a full sound
@eclipse504 The Canon 5DmkII and the Canon t2i
If it has a pickup and you can plug it in, sure.
Ampkit is definitely better than Amplitube.
Can i plug it into my amp?
@rustysruger it does have a tuner but would be nice yeah:P Just like that Les Paul can do:P
You don't HAVE to plug in headphones right? Can like plug your speakers on to the headphones jack? I think so, but not sure 100%. like the product though.
how about using it with an acoustic guitar??
When I switch the wah to "auto", it just stays at the position it was at for the "on" and does not give an auto wah effect. Am I missing something?
yes
Why many people complaining about noise sound when yours make perfect?
Can you tell me where you got the mount for your ipod or iphone that you show in the video? I have the irig but I need a mount... Thanks.
it gives a lower price from fender ampli tune
these are looking like irig but it is not expensive like irig are these the same
hey dude... does this have any difference about guitar pick ups?... cause its a digital effect... like its all programmed... ?
Hi Stephen, I just bought iRig and Amplitube for my iphone 3GS.
I need to ask you for a favor. Could you plerase help to set up a Preset to get a Gilmour sound (such as the one of "Confortably Numb") using iRig and AmpliTube for iPhone?.
I knew that there is no way to load Presets inside the AmpliTube for iPhone but, you may shortly describe Effect setup, Effects order and Ampli set up to get such a kind of sound.
Many thanks in advance. Best regards
Paolo
hey is it possible to use irig with windows
i just purchased the irig for my iphone, and every time i plug it in (im doing everything correctly) no sound comes from the headphones. i can hear all the demo's and stuff, but i cannot hear my own guitar.
can someone please help me with this, i was all excited on this thing and now im kinda bummed, spent like an hr and a half unpluging it and replugging it.
how do u connect this to an amp? and not listen through headphones?
Can you use a normal jack converter?
Do you think it'd sound good to play with a 15W amp in my room for practice or at a studio with friends in a 50W speaker, nothing professional, just for fun. Considering i'd be playing some punk rock like Old School Green Day, Ramones, Alkaline Trio or Offspring... Would it sound good enough? Does it handle heavy distortion well, when amplified by an external speaker? Good (and sharp) enough to hear with someone slamming the drums 2 feet away from me?
anyone can help me? on how to export the recorded mix of mine to paste it on my pc? pls.... after i export the mix to file sharing i cant find where did my itouch shared the file... anyone can help me pls
where does the sound come from ??
It is also suitable for acoustic guitar??
@salaipapa It's not perfect. The iRig is the noisiest of the interfaces that I've tried. The app is great, but to get your guitar into the phone I'd recommend either the LiNK. I personally love the GuitarJack, but AmpliTube does not currently work with GuitarJack.
sorry man can i use 3 pedals effect at the same time?
Nice , what amp do you use ? or its a monitor ?
how do you connect to to amp?
would this be good and worth it for playing in a band or even a youth group worship team???
@shazbot9000 uhhh they've been around for 20 years, that's old
can u connect this to speakers?
Does it work well with acoustic guitars?
can i use it in gigs ?
Could you find out how to make the same tone as Steve Vai on there? Cheers buddy :D
Can you hook it up with an actual amp?
u can't really have a good metal tone on amplitube , right?
Are you using the free version of amplitude?
so therers no way of recording with out hearing the metronome
how much is the adapter?
can be used with Experia ?
HOW ABOUT ANDROID USER?
can we use it for bass? or there's another aplication for bass?
\m/_
What output did you use?
does it work on android phones?
@celiasarron He's not even using a Sat-Nav
I have the phone, the app and the iRig. I plug it in and all I can get is clean sound. NONE of the controls work. I have bought the distortion and even when I turn everything down, I still have the same clean sound with no volume decrease. I have registered the app, so fuck knows whats wrong with it. Its driving me absolutely up the fucking wall!
I've seen buskers using this, sounds really good live and I'm pretty sure it mutes incoming calls XD
Is this the paid version?
One question... Does it work with 1st gen itouch?? Lol
Gstrings for Android
@zackg007 ohh i see sorry for that... eheheh....
umadbro?
@zabimaru1000
Got it, thanks!!!
Sounds fuzzy with distortion
👍
80% percent is the guitar, my guitar doesnt sound like that ,but its worth it
How do you plug it into a guitar and an amp at the same time???
hahah :D it's for playin' home I think
@zackg007 dude move your itouch or iphone up and down just like a real wah :)
just remove the telephone chip!
lol they spelled ''Phaser'' wrong
''Phazer'':P
no
Typically.. most play the same chords over and over in an effort to show the differences with each amp.. effect.. whatever. Just Sayin.
Mate you say "UM" too much
this guy is very strange
Wrong.
@Try2SingLol I'm not sure what the model is on this... it's just a clip for mounting your iPhone in the windshield of your car and I just took the clip part and mounted it to a mic clip. Maybe I'll make a video about it.
yes
