Guitar interface adapter turns your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad into the mobile guitar and bass sound studio

Review: Imagine carrying your entire guitar or bass rig around in your pocket. When IK Multimedia say entire, IK Multimedia mean tuner, pedalboard, amp head, cabinet, microphone and 4 track recorder. That's a lot to fit into your pocket, but now you can thanks to the AmpliTube iRig.

The iRig is a revolutionary product that allows you to connect your guitar/bass to your iOS device. From there, your signal travels through the wonderful world of the AmpliTube iOS software to give your guitar sound life and meaning. To use the iRig, you simply plug the 3.5mm TRRS end into the headphone jack of your iOS device. Then plug your guitar into the 1/4" jack using a standard guitar cable. To monitor your sound, plug your headphones/line out into the 3.5mm headphone jack on the iRig. That's all there is to it. Now you're ready to Jam.

The AmpliTube iRig comes with the AmpliTube FREE iOS app, a full-featured guitar and bass tone powerhouse app featuring some of the most popular and famous guitar amp sounds on the planet. You can plug in and instantly get a fantastic guitar sound utilizing our factory presets, or create a tone of your own.

You'll have at your fingertips the sound and control up to 4 recombinable simultaneous stompbox effects + amplifier + cabinet + microphone just like a traditional guitar or bass stage rig! Plus, you get all kinds of cool extras like a riff learner, music player and recording studio.

The new iRig interface adapter is the easiest way to get your instrument's signal into iPhone/iPod touch/iPad. It features a standard 1/4" instrument jack, a standard 1/8" (3.5mm) headphone out jack, and the iOS standard 1/8" TRRS jack for input on your iOS device. All you have to do is make your connections, then launch AmpliTube iOS or your favorite guitar/recording app and you're ready to go. The iRig is the ideal companion not only to the mobile AmpliTube series of apps, but also works with any other recording, processing or tuning app. Plus, you can also use the iRig with line level signal sources such as synthesizers, keyboards or mixers.

If you have a newer Mac computer, you can use the iRig as an audio interface for it. The newer Mac models feature a headphone jack that act as a headphone/microphone input for headsets. This means that you can also use your iRig with your Mac laptop or desktop machine to take advantage of the higher processing power of your machine and you don't need an additional audio interface to use it. Simply plug the iRig into your headphone jack, plug your headphones/line out into your iRig and you've got a fully functioning audio interface for guitar/bass/keyboards, or any other instrument with a 14" out. Pretty cool.

Download the AmpliTube FREE, AmpliTube Fender FREE or AmpliTube Slash app from the iTunes App store. Plug in your guitar and headphones via the iRig and launch the app. Immediately you'll see something very familiar, a complete rig. AmpliTube iOS recreates your entire guitar/bass signal chain in your iPhone/iPod touch/iPad. At the top of the screen, you'll see the navigation bar for your rig. This is where you select the module to modify.

Click on a stompbox module slot and you can add a stompbox effect to your signal chain. There's a small navigation list of available effects directly under the navigation bar. Simply click on an effect name to load it into the slot. Swipe left and right to access all the available stompbox effects in your app. The signal flows from left to right and you can reposition effects in the chain to experiment with different textures and sounds. You get 3 stompbox slots daisy-chained together to add your favorite effects. You can turn on/off individual stompboxes simply by clicking the pedal button.

Please note: the AmpliTube iRig is not recommended for use with 1st generation iPhone models. The iRig adapter does not support 1st generation iPod touch models, due to their lack of a mic input.

Acoustic correction system in a plug-in, contains 1 x measurement microphone, 1 x meaturement suftware + 1 x correction plug-in

Review: The ARC System 2 (Advanced Room Correction) is the sequel of the first and only acoustic correction system that combines a measurement microphone, measurement software and a correction plug-in to improve the sound reliability and acoustics of your studio in an elegant, low-cost portable solution.

The ARC uses Audyssey MultEQ XT32 patented technology to improve your monitoring system so what you hear is not affected by distortions caused by room acoustics. Near field monitor systems used in studio applications are designed to deliver sound without distortion or coloration. However when they are placed in a room, surrounding walls, ceiling, furniture, and other objects reflect and absorb sounds, creating complex distortions specific to that room. This ultimately causes them to lose the accuracy they have been designed for, and you end up hearing more of the sound of the room, than the music actually being produced.

Traditionally studio acoustics can be improved using acoustic treatments, but these are generally very expensive and require professional installations, which is often not practical in many of today's home and project studio. Other types of electronic correction systems use some form of equalization that works only on the frequency response of the room but worsen the phase response of what you are hearing. The ARC System 2 solves all these problems elegantly, with a unique, innovative DAW-based solution that works both in the frequency/time domain and is not affected by any of the drawbacks of other type of correction systems.

Measurement software upgrade ONLY

Review: The IK Multimedia ARC System 2 Advanced Room Correction System Software is the first acoustic correction system that combines a measurement software and a correction plug-in for most popular DAWs to improve the acoustics and sonic reliability of your studio.

The ARC works by measuring your room using the included measurement microphone and measurement software and then generates an algorithm to provide a correction of your room's acoustic problems that you can apply to your mix using the included plug-in. You can record and mix with confidence knowing that what you hear from your speakers is a faithful representation of how your music will translate to the outside world.

The ARC uses Audyssey MultEQ XT32 patented technology to improve your monitoring system so what you hear is not affected by distortions caused by room acoustics. The ARC 2 can improve the acoustics of any room. An untreated room will experience a dramatic improvement, but also treated rooms will sound better depending on the quality of the existing treatment. Many of the ARC 2 improvements make it more effective in a wide spectrum of applications i from amateur bedroom studios to the most high-end professionally treated studios.

There are many ways to integrate iRig MIDI into a mobile rig for various types of musicians such as: keyboard players, producers, guitar/bass players and vocalists to name a few.

There are many instrument apps for the iPhone/iPad, and it's fun to play them on their multi-touch screen. But this is impracticle when it comes to using them as a live instrument. The iRig MIDI has the ability to use any MIDI keyboard controller (from home digital pianos to advanced synthesizers or computer controllers) as an input source an iOS device to easily control instrument apps in a familiar way.

The included SampleTank for iOS also offers a high-quality mobile alternative to traditional software and hardware sound modules and has been studied from the ground up to work as a live performance instrument where it can access as a vast 750 MB library of over 400 ready-to-use sounds.

Use the iRig MIDI with drum machines, MPC-style pads and groove boxes. Connecting one of these devices to the iRig MIDI input allows the hardware device to play an iOS instrument app or to use the rhythm patterns of an external device with an iOS app as a drum and groove sound module. iRig MIDI also works as an easy-to-use MIDI recorder with the free iRig MIDI Recorder app.

Alternatively, producers can play MIDI rhythm patterns or MIDI sequences on their iOS device and use an external drum machine or any MIDI sound modules connected to the iRig MIDI output as sound modules.

Connecting a MIDI floor controller to the input of the iRig MIDI allows the user to control effects processing apps for guitar and bass such as AmpliTube or vocal processing apps such as VocaLive which will be updated soon to receive MIDI messages. This will allow the user to change presets or to use pedal controllers to operate wah or any type of continuous controller effects. This also enables keyboard players, DJs and other performing musicians to control iOS effects apps without taking their hands off of their instruments.

With the exclusive MIDI thru port of iRig MIDI, the user can create advanced rigs such as simultaneously using the iOS device and an external sound module as sound generators controlled by a single MIDI keyboard. Or record MIDI performances live using an external MIDI recording device such as a computer.

The iRig Mic is ideal for the singer, vocalist and songwriter on the move, but also perfect for recording speeches, instruments, performances or other sound sources in the studio, on stage or in the field.

The iRig Mic also comes with the VocaLive FREE, IK's new real time effects processor suite for the singer and vocalist, and the AmpliTube FREE for guitar players and songwriters and the iRig Recorder FREE, an IK app for quick audio recording and processing. The iRig Mic also works with a wide variety of other vocal and audio processing apps for the iOS platform.

Mobile mixer for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad

Review: The iRig MIX is the first mobile mixer for iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. The iRig MIX offers the same controls you would expect from a professional DJ mixer (crossfader, cues, EQ and volume controls, etc.) in an ultra-compact mobile mixer that can be used with a huge variety of iOS DJ mixing and other apps. It is a complete DJ system for rehearsing, performing and recording. The lightweight and slim design of the iRig MIX allows it to be easily carried in a regular iPad bag. For the first time on any DJ mixer, the iRig MIX can be used for mixing any type of audio source (coming from mp3 players, CD players, etc.) with an iOS device using automatic tempo matching and beat syncing. This is accomplished with X-Sync, a feature that works in combination with the DJ Rig free app from IK Multimedia that is included with the iRig MIX.

The iRig MIX allows DJs to use a traditional setup with 2 devices (one plugged into each of the independent channels) OR a single iOS device. For the single iOS device setup, the output of the single device is split into dual-mono and sent to the individual channels. This flexibility, combined with the iRig MIX's portability gives aspiring and pro DJs a compact system that can be used everywhere and anytime. Now, you can practice when you want, perform when requested, because your Rig is always with you. You can set up in minutes for house, backyard, dance and after parties. Play in your bedroom, dorm room, or at sporting events before the big game. Planes, trains and automobiles once meant that your DJ gear was inaccessible. Now, no matter where you are or where you are going, you can mix and rehearse sets.

The iRig MIX also provides the perfect mixing solution for solo musicians or small ensembles that use one or more iOS devices to play live. It features an extra guitar/microphone input that facilitates processing with popular apps like the AmpliTube and the VocaLive or any other apps that offer real-time audio effects and processing. Its standard RCA output connectors provide direct connection to PA systems or powered speakers.

With its slim, lightweight form factor the iRig MIX is considerably smaller than traditional DJ mixers and can be carried anywhere you take your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, is easy to stow and perfect for performers on the go. The iRig MIX also has minimal power requirements allowing it to be powered not only by the included power supply but also by a suitable USB battery pack or a laptop USB port for maximum mobility to mix anywhere. And because the mixer and an iPad only take up about as much space as a laptop, you can leave it set up all the time so you're ready to go when creative inspiration strikes.

The iRig MIX includes 4 free apps (downloads from the iTunes app store): DJ Rig, the new professional DJ mixing app from IK, AmpliTube, the most popular iOS guitar amp and effects app, VocaLive the processing app for vocalists, and GrooveMaker, the loop based beat and groove making app.

Universal microphone interface for iPhone, iPod touch & iPad

Review: Hook any professional microphone to your iOS device.

Introducing the First studio quality mic preamp for the iOS platform. Here's how you use it: Take the microphone you use every day on stage or in the studio and plug it into your iOS device. It's that simple. Need Phantom Power? Flip the Phantom Power switch. Congratulations, you've just become a professional user.

This is perhaps the most important product introduction for musicians and the rest of the civilized world since the iPod and iPad. Now, thanks to the iRig PRE, you can hook your favorite microphone to your iOS device and join the mobile music revolution. Create music any time, anywhere with your own high quality microphones on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad.

So now if you want to record that special riff using your own ribbon microphone and mix it on your iPhone, you can. Simply plug the iRig PRE into the headphone jack of your iOS device, activate phantom power if necessary, launch your recording software and wail away.

The iRig PRE sports an ultra-compact design so it fits pretty much anywhere. Just slightly larger than a 9V battery, you'll be amazed at how quickly you'll misplace your iRig PRE. But don't let the small size fool you. The iRig Pre is a professional sounding mic preamp that will dazzle you and your friends.

The iRig PRE has a 48V Phantom Power feature that lets you use your favorite condenser microphone with your iOS device. The phantom doesn't eat your device battery, it takes a standard 9V. No longer are you shackled by the chains of passive microphones for your mobile recordings. Now inject the shocking awe-inspiring power and clarity of the ever popular condenser microphone into the lifeless muddy world of AM radio sounding recordings. You'll be the hero of the entire civilized recording world when you unleash the beast onto unsuspecting virgin ears, now thanks to the technological marvel that will become known to the rest of the world as iRig PRE, but you saw it here first. And you can plug a SM58 into it and sound like your fabulous normal self as well.

The iRig Mic PRE features a 3.5mm headphone out that allows you to monitor the processed sound, however you sound. So now you can finally tell if you're idol material.

Unlike some other mic cable companies, IK provide you with an astonishing 40cm (that's like 15.75") of space to place your device. So if you want to Velcro your iRig PRE to your mic stand and use the iKlip Mini to hold your iPhone, you can. And with total peace of mind. Rest assured, you're secured. However, if you Velcro it to the singer's pants, you're on your own. Sorry, that voids the warranty.

In addition, you get 2 free apps to get started recording and effectualizing your voice: the iRig Recorder, a simple-to-use waveform recorder and editor, and the VocaLive, IK's premium live vocal effects processor.

Please notice: the iRig PRE does not support 1st generation iPod touch models, due to their lack of a mic input

USB audio interface/MIDI controller + modeling software

Review: The StealthPedal CS Custom Shop is truly in a class by itself. It consists of the StealthPedal Wah-Style Audio interface, AmpliTube Custom Shop software and 100 x gear credits to use in the AmpliTube Custom Shop. Here's a little more detail about what you get...

One look at the StealthPedal and you'll get it. That's right, it's a wah pedal. But it's also a volume pedal, or gain control, or tremolo speed control, treble booster, amp bypass, pitch shifter, margarita maker, dream date, super model, or actually whatever you want it to be, within the realm of audio and software control. The StealthPedal is an audio interface, meaning you can use it to connect your guitar or bass to your computer. And it's a high quality one at that. It takes your guitar signal and converts it into something a computer can read and manipulate.

The StealthPedal is also a controller. Don't let that scare you, it's actually a great thing. It means that once you get hooked up, you can also assign software parameters to it's knobs, switches and pedal attenuator. And with IK's software, if you know how to right-click a mouse button, you know how to assign a function to a button.

You get 2 x inputs and 2 x outputs. This way you can connect a couple of instruments, or a stereo source, and run the outs in stereo or dual mono. This allows you to take advantage of the stereo effects of the software if you have it set up that way. The functionality of the StealthPedal is expandable, you can also add an additional expression pedal via the expression pedal 1/4" jack, and you can add a dual-button footswitch. Why? Because IK all like options, and this gives you the ability to assign more software parameters to buttons and pedals you operate with your feet so you can focus on the things that matter.

The StealthPedal CS comes with AmpliTube Custom Shop, the leading amp and software modeling package with 24 x pieces of gear including: a digital chromatic tuner, 9 x stomps, 4 x amps, 5 x cabs, 3 x mics, and 2 x rack effects. Basically it's your entire guitar or bass signal chain, but in convenient compact computer form you can use in your studio or on stage.

You'll also get 100 x AmpliTube Custom Shop Gear Credits that allow you to expand and customize your virtual rig one piece at a time. The Custom Shop has over 230 x pieces of individual gear, including exclusive official models from legendary brands like Fender, Ampeg, Orange, Soldano, T-Rex, Seymour Duncan, Groove Tubes and many more.

Once you've dialed in your tone, lay down your ideas with the built-in 4-track recorder. You can layer your ideas with its non-destructive recording feature and re-amp your sound to get everything exactly perfectly perfect.

The AmpliTube Custom Shop also works as a plug-in for the most popular DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) sequencers such as GarageBand, Pro Tools, Cubase, Sonar, Logic, Live, Reaper, FruityLoops, etc. with the exact same functionality, (except you don't get the handy recorder when you're already using it in a recorder).

When you open AmpliTube, you'll feel like you've been here before. The AmpliTube interface looks and acts like a hardware rig, only better. You can choose all kinds of configurations for your rig; use multiple instances of the same effect with different settings, different amp heads with non-matching cabinets, custom configure microphone placement on the speaker and in the recording space, and polish with spectacular rack effects. You now have at your disposal some of the coolest gear on the planet.

USB audio interface + modeling software

Review: The StealthPlug CS Custom Shop is perhaps the most affordable way to get started making guitar music on your computer. It features the StealthPlug 1/4" to USB cable interface, and the new AmpliTube Custom Shop software plus 50 x gear credits to use in the Custom Shop.

The StealthPlug is an affordable high quality low noise analog to digital converter cable that takes the output of your guitar and converts it into something the computer can read. This is done in an all in one 9ft guitar cable that has a 1/4" guitar jack on one end and an USB jack on the other, and an inline set of high speed a/d and d/a converters. You computer will then send the output from your AmpliTube software (that's included) back through the USB port and the StealthPlug converts it back into an analog signal (that's the d/a part) that old-fashioned gear like amps, powered speakers, headphones and stereos can understand so they can do their duty and stimulate your eardrum pleasure centers.

With the StealthPlug, you get 9 full feet of room to stretch out, stand up, jump jive and wail. Simply plug the 1/4" end into your instrument and the USB end into your computer. There's a 1/8" mini-plug jack for your headphones or powered speakers (non-neighbor friendly) so you can hear what you're doing. There's a dual-button volume control in case the police show, and a couple of pretty colored lights you can use to land small aircraft.

The StealthPlug CS comes with the AmpliTube Custom Shop, the leading amp and software modeling package with 24 x pieces of gear including: a digital chromatic tuner, 9 x stomps, 4 x amps, 5 x cabs, 3 x mics, and 2 x rack effects. Basically it's your entire guitar or bass signal chain, but in convenient compact computer form you can use in your studio or on stage.

Plus you'll also get 50 x AmpliTube Custom Shop Gear Credits that allow you to expand and customize your virtual rig one piece at a time. The Custom Shop has over 230 x pieces of individual gear, including exclusive official models from legendary brands like Fender, Ampeg, Orange, Soldano, T-Rex, Seymour Duncan, Groove Tubes and many more.
