Specializing in GarageBand for iOS, Patrick of The GarageBand Guide offers his first impressions of IK's new iRig HD X. It's true. This pocket-size guitar interface is ideal for mobile guitar and bass players, especially those interested in recording or streaming with an iPhone or iPad.

A longtime user and reviewer of iRig interfaces, Patrick is more than qualified to review how well the new iRig HD X stacks up against its predecessors. Have a look.

The iRig HD X is a super portable audio interface designed specifically for iOS guitarists. Sounds familiar, right?

Well, this time around IK Multimedia have packed this wee thing with a whole host of useful features.

iRig HD X comes with AmpliTube SE and the marvelous TONEX SE for both Mac and iOS, though it will of course work with any guitar-flavored app or plug-in you care to pair with.

If you're just looking for a really portable interface to plug your guitar or your bass into your iPad, it doesn't get much better than this!
