Me Playing Joe Satriani with iRig on my iPhone

I shot this video while I was supposed to me beta-testing iRig and AmpliTube for the iPhone. Sorry Enrico!!

Not the best performance, but I wanted people to get a sense for how good the tone is - this is a model based on a Marshall JCM800 plus reverb, distortion and delay. Not bad for my phone!! Next time I'll practice more.

Signal chain: guitar - iRig - iPhone (guitar tone & .mp3) - QuickTime. No processing, just AmpliTube iPhone for the tones!!

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.

@ThePinkCamal You might try going to "settings" in the app and turning off "No Feedback." This is meant for headphones, but if you're plugging in speakers or a stereo, it can cause the guitar not to come through. Let me know if this works!!

I got one for Christmas and there seems to be alot of noise!! Like popping and cave like reverb even with the rev turned off on the amp and the delay off. I've looked at setup, and the noise is being indicated from the output, not the input. Does anyone else have this problem?

[mrdboatman]

@msh1601 Did you also purchase the 4-track recorder in the app? That has a master reverb you might have turned on. Also, the clicking and popping is probably CPU overages - you can switch to "low latency" mode in the setup window to reduce this, and try either closing other apps you have running or restarting your device. Unless you're on a very new device, this app does tend to use a lot of resources to get the best possible tone!!

@mrdboatman Hey there. How did you mix the sound from the iphone with the video? I'm a beginner at recording, so I don't know much about recording videos and putting hi-def sound into it..

[mrdboatman]

@wajalama I connected the output of iRig to my computer and just used QuickTime to record a video with my built-in camera. This is an older video, the new version of AmpliTube would let you record yourself playing along with an .mp3 right in the app itself, which is much easier!

Do they send you the irig cord or where do u get it

[garymooreisgod]

i fuckin hate you mrdboatman

coz of this ace demo i went out and bought a iphone and irig...and now am a few hundred quid poorer...

thanks xD sick video btw..

Next time do one with just a backing track instead of the actual song. Based on this video I'll keep my iphone just as it is - a phone. It's not your playing or anything it's just that it sounds pretty flat. I wouldn't buy it.

[ugirl2]

what pedals did you use in this app? to get that satriani type sound? i just have the free app, gonna buy the full app soon.

[alan6333]

if i dont have the iRig, the app doesnt works?? and if i get the iRig, how i plug into the amp?

[hyhyhyyhyhyhyhy]
