“My Expectations Were Exceeded with the Versatility of the Program”

AmpliTube Metal, IK's High-gain Guitar Amp & Effects, scores a 9.3 out 10 rating with the fastest growing guitar community on the net, UltimateGuitar.com! See why they gave AmpliTube Metal such high marks below.

"My expectations for Amplitube Metal were high as I am a big fan of IK Multimedia's SampleTank. This program did not disappoint. In fact, my expectations were exceeded with the versatility of the program... This program can easily achieve a killer Pantera tone (the Metal Lead W amp is modeled after the Randall Warhead popularized by the late great Dimebag Darrell). The modern gain tones are massive, but I was even more impressed by the vintage Van Halen and Black Sabbath sounds. Check out the audio clips!"

"The creators of AmpliTube Metal did a fantastic job in this department. I was able to install and set up the program on my old iMac in under 15 minutes. Once the program was installed I was only a few more minutes away from tweaking presets and dialing in crushing high gain rhythm tones. Without reading a single word of the instruction manual I was able to figure out all of the major features. The included speed trainer was intuitive and affective, just load in the song and go. Awesome! It also includes a pitch adjuster, which is great for learning songs tuned down a half step without having to downtune your guitar."

"Another surprisingly intuitive feature is the signal routing menu. There are eight different routing options that allow you to sculpt your tone using two different signal chains with separate amps and cabinets. With just the click of a few buttons and a quick look at the signal routing, you can assemble a monstrous pedal board with two 4x12 cabinets into a refrigerator-sized rack of effects. This function makes it fun and easy to get carried away with overusing features."

"A user with any amp and pedal knowledge at all will have no problems creating their own patches. This program is highly recommended to anyone who may be intimidated by complicated guitar amp modelers. The interface is more intuitive than (for example) a Line 6 Pod or Guitar Rig."

"Overall Amplitube Metal is a very useful program. Guitarists will find it quite easy to achieve a vast array of high gain tones along with some great clean sounds. Engineers will find this program useful for their arsenal of effects as well. The added Speedtrainer and pitch adjuster are nice extras that give this program some bonus points. Many programs and multi-effects units lack desirable stock presets. However, Amplitube Metal's presets were cleverly dialed in and usable. I can't wait to hear Amplitube Hendrix!"
