The chain can be a simple single path, a two-way split (mono into stereo), a three-way split or parallel, the latter being useful for stereo instruments such as synths. To build a rig in AmpliTube you just drag a piece of gear on to a virtual signal path, just like daisy chaining a real setup together. Winner: It’s a given that AmpliTube offers more of just about everything, but it also delivers fully endorsed models and signature presets from the likes of Mesa/Boogie, Slash, Brian May… AmpliTube vs Guitar Rig: UI and ease of use IK Multimedia has worked with brands such as Fender, Mesa Boogie, Orange and more, to bring fully endorsed modelled versions of their iconic amps and effects. Where Guitar Rig teases us with equipment names that hint at the gear being modelled – Plex (Marshall) and hot solo (soldano), for example – AmpliTube is more upfront. It’s not quite as capable on the recording and performance side, but is slightly stronger on new, less traditional effects. It also includes amplifiers, cabs, mics, effects and a very malleable routing system. Guitar Rig 6 Pro has a lower feature count than AmpliTube, but don’t dismiss it because of that – after all, bigger isn’t necessarily better. Life gets really interesting when you start routing this kit together in ways that would be almost impossible in a physical studio or performance space.ĪmpliTube also includes an 8-track recorder, looper, tuner and other DAW-like features that make recording or live performance as efficient as possible. It features a staggering amount of modelled gear, including amplifiers, cabs, speakers, mics and effects boxes. AmpliTube 5 MAX is a complete tonal solution for your guitar, or any other instrument for that matter, including your voice.
