    Default iPhone users - check out AmpliTube iRig

    This looks kinda cool. Seems like it could be a fun thing for those who travel and want a minimal practice "amp"?

    I could definitely use one of those. I love how my iPhone makes it so easy for my guitar stuff. I have my tuner, chord chart, metronome, etc. all in my guitar toolkit, then I can add this thing and not have to bring along a separate headphone amph, and an ipod to play along to. It is all in my phone. Cool!

    I would love to get a small travel guitar and this. I have been traveling for kids sports, and have a trip to Seattle in a week or so. Those two items would make it easier not to completely miss practicing so much.

    EDIT: Maybe I could roll like Krashpad and add me a pink guitar for a travel kit.

    Seems like really nice little gadget you have developed there!

    What would REALLY be cool is if they make a pocket sized unit that wasn't phone based so that we could carry one with us if we don't have an Iphone.

    Well that would be a horse of a completely different color. The whole point of this product is to add relatively cheap hardware, and a little program (app) to an existing device to turn it into a headphone amph with lots of features. It also works with an iTouch ipod. You sound like you want a new smaller cooler headphone amph as a stand alone?

    That is so sweet! I have a road trip mid summer, and really hope it is available by then. I am loving the SRV and Alternative vids.

    Yes. Just not the early ones without audio input. We've tested the app on iPhone 3G, 3GS, iPad, and current iPad Touch with great success. Low latency and great sound all round.

    Awesome.. any chance of adding mp3 support so users can play along their fav backing tracks?

    You already can... OK, well when released you WILL. Semantics... it is already being done here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKntj6C53Lk

    The track needs to be imported though, based on the latency that would be introduced by how the iPod app functions (at I believe 1024 samples and we're doing 128 or 256 depending on the setting you choose in the app). Check that video out, seems to have no latency issue. It isn't the most blazing Satriani track in the world, but still has parts fast enough to show he's playing along frustration-free.
