AmpliTube: The iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad app for practicing musicians



Are you a musician, gadget nerd, outdoorsy person, or gear head? Most of the time you’re either/or without much overlap. For the sake of this article, we’re going to look at gadget nerd/musician.


AmpliTube looks to be one of the easiest to use and fuller featured guitar/music apps for the iPhone platform that I’ve seen yet. Please, feel free to correct me. But what else could you call AmpliTube but “awesome” when you look at the specs.



  • 11 stomps



  • five amps



  • five cabinets



  • two mics


Mixing and matching effects and amps also adds to the novelty and versatility.


The AmpliTube app is free, however, the $39.99 adapter that actually allows you to plug in your guitar to your iPhone is not. But think about it, this app and hardware combo effectively turns your iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad into a makeshift-almost-full amp simply by plugging your guitar! That I believe is worth the extra dough.
