Amplitube Slash for iPad

 

Many musicians are familiar with Amplitube.  It has earned a reputation for being one of the best guitar amp and effects emulators available on the market today.  With that being said, IK Multimedia is back at it again.  They’ve teamed up with legendary guitarist Slash (Guns ‘n’ Roses) to bring you an excellent addition to the Amplitube family.

 

Available for $9.99, Amplitube Slash comes with 6 stomp boxes, 2 amplifiers, and 30 presets that are modeled after Slash’s signature sound.  Preset management is easy to navigate through, and the sound quality is excellent for iOS standards.

 

It only comes stocked with a single track recorder, but if you’re familiar with IK’s approach to iOS, you know they always get you with a few add-ons.  A four track recorder with mastering effects is available via app store purchase.

 

With flexible import/export options and audio copy/paste features, this is an excellent app for guitarists on the go.  Be sure to check it out!

The simple the fact that I can have access to it on an iPad, which I can easily take anywhere, is super cool.
