AmpliTube Jimi Hendrix + AmpliTube Metal vintage FX - Plug your guitar into your computer and rock

[slitherlock]

totally off topic but thank you Jimmy for making so many people love the guitar and setting the bar to inspire so many of us. RIP you gypsy soul traveler.

[varettah]

I have Amplitube 2, Amplitube imi Hendrix and Amplitube Metal, but when I open Amplitube X-Gear it doesn't see the patches and pedals from Amplitube Metal but only the ones from Amplitube 2 & Hendrix. How can I do to also include Amplitube Metal into Amplitube X-Gear?

[ikmultimedia]

@varettah It should work, but you'd be better off moving to AmpliTube 3 which already has the Metal models and they are better-sounding in V3. It will pull in the others like X-Gear does, and X-Gear should see your Metal install. For your current issues, you must contact support as we are unable to do proper technical support via YouTube. Thanks!

[Chyaman09]

Do you need any other Amplitube to use Amplitube Jimi Hendrix/Amplitube Metal? Are pedals accessible with Amplitube, and is Amplitube on a CDrom? My computer's disc reader doesn't work, and I am not getting it replaced soon, Thanks.

[ikmultimedia]

@Chyaman09 No they work standalone. You can download the latest versions from your User Area on our site, though, and you really should so you have the best with all fixes.

[MrArjen1960]

I made a Video where I am using Amplitube Fender !

Just search on my name "arjen jager" on Youtube

Hope you like it !

[ikmultimedia]

@MrArjen1960 Set it as a video response to one of our AmpliTube Fender videos and we will take a look. Thanks!

[sajidwaikhom]

can you use this stuff in protools, cubase etc?

[ikmultimedia]

@sajidwaikhom Yes, it can be used in your DAW where VST, AU, or RTAS are supported. You might be better looking at AmpliTube 3 which is the newest product and has the Hendrix and Metal models included (plus much more!)

[davidlanham99]

Do you have a video for dum people, you run the guitar into the laptop and back out and into the amp?

[GrPaoOle]

can you reply to me please?

i have a problem with the linking, i put the usb cable to the guitar then the usb cable to the computer and done?

cuz i get no sound at allp

please help me :(

[ikmultimedia]

@GrPaoOle That is something to discuss with tech support. You can reach them from our web site. There is just too much that needs to be gathered for proper technical issues to be resolved in YouTube comments. Our support staff is there to help.

[GameCardTeamSilvR]

@ikmultimedia

Hi!

I would just like to ask you how good of a real guitar do you need to get this kind of sound? I assume you plugin a real guitar and play and the program works as an simulated amp right? So how good of a real guitar do you need? Can you do it with a low budget guitar?

[ikmultimedia]

@GameCardTeamSilvR You can get good sound from even a budget guitar. There are many budget guitars out there that are really good for the money (the Fender budget lines are great, and others). Much of the sound comes from the fingers and the brain of the player - I saw Joe Satriani play a budget guitar and he still sounded amazing.

[GameCardTeamSilvR]

@ikmultimedia

So the quality of the guitar does play a importance for the VST simulator, in that case what pickups are needed for that Hendrix sound. The thing is I have a Fender Strat 1980 (high quality guitar) and a Gibson Les Paul (also a high quality version) could they simulate the same sound? I know that Hendrix used a Strat but could I simulate that sound with a Gibson? And lets say "Slash GN'R" sound with the Fender?

Cheers mate. Thanks for answering my lame questions.

[SevenisNine]

@GameCardTeamSilvR No, single coil pickups sound different than humbuckers

[sirblues]

@GrPaoOle You have to install an ASIO driver and configure the audio settings in Amplitube. ( I use the behringer link and its own ASIO driver, instead Asio4all)

[Soulgrenade]

@GrPaoOle

make sure u are using asio4all

[ikmultimedia]

@Soulgrenade You should actually use your audio interface's ASIO driver for best (and supported) results

[alsharpton666]

could you get an expression pedal to control wah, flanger, etc?

also, could you use: ampliube effect--> real pedal--> amplitube effect?

[ikmultimedia]

@alsharpton666 We have StealthPedal that is also a quality audio interface that has an expression pedal as the housing - also, it supports connecting an expression pedal (or two... or one plus the double-stomp for preset up/down, etc)

[MrJackanthony]

@ikmultimedia Just read about the dual rig feature.. is it possible to pan amp A and amp be?

[AzArAzA95]

I got an amazing British Classic Rock sound with Jimi Hendrix.

[ikmultimedia]

It is an older video, the AmpliTube 3 videos are improved (and include all Metal and Hendrix gear) so take a look at those and expect more and better. AmpliTube 3 is the current product so those videos will be the higher quality and will improve as well.

[davidbrucemusicvideo]

my favorite part of this video is that its in 240p and l can't see anything clearly!! YAY!

(um, l'm kidding...)

[Ericclapton325]

how well would it work if i were to run through a real wah pedal before going into the computer

[ikmultimedia]

@Ericclapton325 very well, in most cases. At the CES convention, we even saw Jimi Taylor (Hendrix impersonator) use a Jimi Hendrix wah into AmpliTube iRig with great results!

[Ericclapton325]

@ikmultimedia This really changes my perspective now thanks!

[blackjiro666]

como conecto la guitarra al pc??

[godlikecharacta]

is this an uprgrade package for amplitube 3?

[ikmultimedia]

@godlikecharacta It is a separate product that came out before AmpliTube 3

[who8allthepies]

@godlikecharacta amplitube 3.5.2 has jimi hendrix metal fender and the bass amp all included. if you buy amplitube 3 your get the lot.

[TAMUCLASS16]

So is it possible to use actual effect pedals in conjunction with this program?

[ikmultimedia]

@TAMUCLASS16 yes, just be careful with the gain staging (since pedals will be either buffered or true bypass and will affect the strength of the signal just like they would in a full hardware chain)

[sarpiresthedatsuns]

can u plz help me???i have amplitude and usb conektor...bt there isnt any sound coming out...plz help me

[ikmultimedia]

@sarpiresthedatsuns There are many things that could affect this, so please contact support (go to our site) and they will help you out.

[MetalInstrumentals]

i have a question, maybe a stupid one, can i use a DigiTech RP255 as an expression pedal?

[ikmultimedia]

@MetalInstrumentals If it can be used as a generic MIDI expression pedal

[adrian183]

Best idea ever to put Jimi's so-hard-to-match sounds in a program!! Very very cool

[MrSzipu]

if the program make noise in every 5-10 seconds, its meaning that the trial's times up? So it was because (still) I have not got serial number?

[ikmultimedia]

@MrSzipu Yes, that's what it means. If you ordered from a dealer and you have not received your package, please contact them. If you ordered from us and did not get your notification of digital delivery with your serial please use the Contact page on our site to let us know.

[MrSzipu]

@ikmultimedia and excuse me for my english

[MrSzipu]

@MrSzipu ok, thanks

[Rushisftw]

Definitely looking to buy the overall Amplitube 3. Just wondering though, would a better sound card make it sound better? Sorry new to these programs.

Thanks.

[ikmultimedia]

@Rushisftw A proper audio interface with Hi-Z/Instrument input is recommended. Getting the best signal IN to the computer is the best way to start. We make three that are great for guitar signals: StealthPlug, StealthPedal, and StompIO.

[peppersa1]

can u give me a Serial Number?

[ikmultimedia]

@peppersa1 You do realize that this is the OFFICIAL channel of the developer of the software. The one that has employees that feed their families by selling the results of their hard work, right? So yes, we can give you one - go to our site and buy it.

[XxbmthrockerxX]

@ikmultimedia LOL BOOKED

[maxpowd3r]

@ikmultimedia pwnt

[koshiaru]

@ikmultimedia OUCH! Used the "feed the families" one! Way to burn him IK! lol. 

[ikmultimedia]

@koshiaru though it is actually true, not a burn. We're a serious company that has people doing something they are passionate about in order to make their living so I was just giving a frame of reference so they knew who they were stealing from.

[koshiaru]

@ikmultimedia They shouldn't be stealing in the first place. your software's are reasonable enough for the level of quality you guys put in. You guys have the RIGHT to just burn him, if you wanted to. 

[ikmultimedia]

@koshiaru Thanks for the kind words. "Burning" in YouTube threads makes me feel a little dirty though LOL

[koshiaru]

In my opinion, it's good work on your part lol. these crazy pirates need a good third-degree BURN!

[TenhoMeideia]

@peppersa1 LOL you're awesome.

[GallGael2]

@peppersa1 Fail.

[JawDog123]

@peppersa1 fail dude ...

[HawksOnFireChannel]

@peppersa1 ZING!

[A7XNCK]

this guy sounds like the good luck chuck guy

[fiddevogel]

the marshall 1959 isn´t rare

[NANONANONIN]

what cable is need to play amlitube?

[ikmultimedia]

@NANONANONIN - any standard audio interface that has instrument/Hi-Z input will do. We make StealthPlug, StealthPedal, and StompIO specifically for getting the best guitar signal into your computer. Check our site for details.

[chewiebrothaman]

does amplitube include recording

[ikmultimedia]

@chewiebrothaman AmpliTube 3 has a built-in 4-track recorder and includes all the models from Jimi Hendrix and Metal. Check it out on our site (and we have videos for it here too).

[Trikissss]

how can you turn on/off the pedals without doing it manually ??

[ikmultimedia]

@Trikissss you can use a MIDI controller - we have two interfaces that also have control capabilities (StealthPedal and StompIO) and the upcoming controller StealthBoard that will integrate with AmpliTube and also control your whole MIDI rig.

[telefoto123]

Hello, I play guitar on my PC with Amplitube. I' am fun of Jimi and I' m satisfied with this software. Which audio interface you recommended for sound outputs from PC (amplitube)?

This components is very important, do you have any experiences about sound card (audio interface)?

Sory on my bad English grammar - Thanks!

[ikmultimedia]

@telefoto123 we make three interfaces that integrate incredibly and also sound phenomenal: StompIO, StealthPedal, and StealthPlug. Please check out our website for more information. I also recommend you look at AmpliTube 3, the newest product that does include all the amps and gear from these products in the video.

[telefoto123]

@ikmultimedia

Thanks, I don't read all instruction. StealthPedal will be nice for me. I did not know that it has integrated sound card in it.

Is it possible to somehow put vah vah pedal from another manufacturer, whether it worked with Amplitube and other pedal in software?

[who8allthepies]

@telefoto123 the stealthpedal has built in audio processing.

[Ibik]

Hey could you record guitar parts through Amplitube 3? also is it possible that you could get a bass sound on this and record and make a little backing track?

[Ibik]

hold on a second, Im thinking of getting an Amplitube 3, I thought everything came with it? like all the effects and all that?

[ikmultimedia]

@Ibik Yes, AmpliTube 3 comes with an astounding amount of amps, cabs, stomp and rack effects, cabinets, microphones - really amazing how much comes with it. Not just the new gear but remastered versions of the AmpliTube Metal, Jimi Hendrix, and AmpliTube 2 gear! Amazing value.

[neuigkeiten]

thnx the video

[Harrysound]

They sound great in this video but when I just tested it out I couldn't get the results I wanted in the hendrix pack

The Bold As Love patch didn't really do for me what I thought it would.

I guess I need to tweak my setup a little and I guess it really doesn't help using humbuckers.

[ikmultimedia]

@Harrysound the pickup type will affect the sound for sure, and make sure you are getting as good a clean direct sound from your interface with proper gain staging and a quality Hi-Z input too. That usually helps quite a bit too.

[MisterDanceMachine]

this VST is almost as overrated as Hendrix is ..........

[ikmultimedia]

@MisterDanceMachine and almost as overrated as flamebaiting. A couple of points for the combo, though, I suppose. :-)

[MisterDanceMachine]

@ikmultimedia no no I use Amplitube :O and am a huge Hendrix fan.

I was trying to say that they're both the opposite of overrated - it came out wrong because I was drinking.

Peace

[ikmultimedia]

@MisterDanceMachine LOL I can't officially say that "I've been there" so we'll leave it at that haha. Got it now.

[stretch90]

Hey, I'm having a problem loading the presets. For some reason they're not being recognized by the program. Can someone help?

[ikmultimedia]

@stretch90 if you are having problems with the Preset XChange, please contact support (you can do so from our web site) and they will get you sorted out. Thanks!

[xxsolidsteelxx]

hahah totally sounds like dane cook. but this is some sick stuff i love those hendrix tones!

[Morethanl1f3]

this guy sounds like dane cook... wth??/?

[inshadows100]

so for this to work, what are ALL that i need? THANKS!

[ikmultimedia]

The system requirements are on our web site - you really only need a guitar > cable > audio interface with Hi-Z or "Instrument" input > your computer > AmpliTube. AmpliTube 3 just came out so give that demo a try.

[bluesnbob]

Wow! Fast response! Thanks!

[ikmultimedia]

No problem. If you have any other questions, feel free to drop me a line directly. Thanks!

[bluesnbob]

To use this software; do I need anything but my guitar, computer, studio monitors, and your software?

[ikmultimedia]

You would need an audio interface with an instrument (or Hi-Z) input. There are many on the market - we make the StealthPedal, StealthPlug, and StompIO which are various audio interfaces.

[3lvi5s7er3o]

please , could you tell me how do you use the efects... your guitar is in a real time ... or you had to record after to use the efects... please is important ...

[ikmultimedia]

You can record guitar, with the effects, all real time. With a decent audio interface it is just like playing through a regular amp. The real time reaction and musicality is very important and we allow for that.

[Hazmathzm84]

Im thinking of buying the Metal pack with the Stealth Pedal but if I do will I still need to buy the Stealth Plug? Also, if theres anything else I would need to start playing such as a extra cord or something it would be nice to know ahead of time. Thanks in advance

[ikmultimedia]

If you get the StealthPedal you will get a USB cord but will need a guitar cable (as you would if you bought an amp :-) ) and you can also plug in headphones if you'd like. there's regular balanced/unbalanced outs too and you can get cable to run them out to however you'd like to output the sound if you don't use the headphone jack.

[Hazmathzm84]

Well in that case im definetley buying. Thank you very much

[gtrmule]

is ik multimedia or any company working on a stand alone pedalboard that you can download your tones to and take it on the road without a pc

[ikmultimedia]

We are working on many things, and we'll reveal some great things - 2010 will be a huge year!

[fodacvc]

I'd surely buy a standalone pedalboard with all the Amplitube effects!! It'd the best pedalboard ever!

[ikmultimedia]

:-)  Good to hear. We've had some really great pedals modeled and make sure you check out our Facebook for pictures and sound clips of what's coming. Once NAMM hits (not too long to go now!!!) things will be WILD.

[PanosGuitarHero]

i have this program but how can i conect teh guitar with my pc?

[ikmultimedia]

You need an audio interface with an instrument input. You can use our StealthPlug, StealthPedal, or StompIO for great sound and control of the AmpliTube products.

[PanosGuitarHero]

thanks... so if i have the stealth pedal i can conect the guitar with the pc and control tha program too?

[ikmultimedia]

Yes, you get great control and you can add a double stomp switch and another expression pedal. Save the control settings with presets and everything! Awesome stuff.

[cosme1234quiroz]

what song is he playing at 0:41 seconds??

[andresyu]

how i can get that amplitute?

[ikmultimedia]

The AmpliTube line is carried by many audio retailers big and small, online and traditional brick-and-mortar. You can also order directly from our site. Thanks!

[SatanKreator]

dude amplitube metal is awesome and everything, but theres a problem im facing which is about the sound sustain it doesnt seem to sound long enough, you know suddenly the sound cut off sometimes, could it be because of my interface??

[ikmultimedia]

Try looking at the noise gate settings (either the built in or any other gate/compressor/dynamic plugin you have in the chain). If you still have a problem, contact our support through your User Area on our site. Thanks!

[fetallica1]

i got the pro and it work fine but the question is how to record what am playing? plz

[ikmultimedia]

You can use it as a plugin in your audio host - please check the manual for specific details and if you have problems you can contact support by logging into your User Area on our site. Thanks!

[fitimshaqiri]

can i use this on zoom processor

[ikmultimedia]

AmpliTube products are used on your computer, either standalone or as a plugin in your audio recording software of choice. You can always use pedals and other things before the signal gets into your computer but the results will most definitely vary.

[fitimshaqiri]

when i plug my guitar i hear a shit sound i nont know why  i tried different settings in audio midi setup but it is the same help me bro //

[ikmultimedia]

In case you don't catch the other reply in another thread, I suggest you send our support folks a request via your User Area on the IK Multimedia site and you'll surely be sorted.

[bluesfashion]

how you record ???can u use this amplitube?

[JebadiahCornbread]

Get Cakewalk Music Creator 5. You get this with it free. It's $35 and it's really good.

[CroElite1911]

How to set it up?

[CosmosRipper]

[Tyson201212]

Great review/overview man!
