About this deal

Make sure your operating system is updated and that you have updated drivers for your sound card (especially if you've installed a sound card that didn't ship with the computer). However the version of Amplitube that it ships with leaves a lot to be desired especially on bass guitar. With a vast range of connectivity options, send your signal directly to your guitar amp with the Amp Out jack and Dual Mode switch, enabling you to deliver a rivetting performance with minimal hassle.

in a manner that also added to my library of guitar amps and effects that I have available in Logic and Pro Tools – i. The same is true of the 1/8" headphone jack, if you'd prefer to use a set of monitors from that output. You can also use the headphone output to send a stereo signal out to a mixing console or powered studio monitors whilst the premium instrument level 1/4" Hi-Z input jack ensures the best audio signal for your electric guitar or bass. At this point we could hear ourselves playing through the MacBook’s speakers (or the MacBook’s headphones output), but we wanted to take advantage of the iRig’s built-in 1/8” headphones output, so we plugged in our trusty Beyerdynamic DT-770 PRO (80 ohm) headphones.Since I didn’t test the unit with PC or Android devices, I can’t be sure if the class-compliant rule still applies. Bobby Kittleberger is the managing editor at Guitar Chalk and author of the book Music Theory for Guitar Players in Plain English . Another major advantage of something like this is that it allows you to practice and play guitar nearly anywhere. Output signal to the headphones is sufficiently strong, but unfortunately I experienced some clipping of the headphone amp when using the iRig on multiple versions of iOS and different headphones.

We advise you to update to a currently supported browser (such as Chrome, Edge, or Firefox) to improve your security, speed, and overall experience. You might have to tinker with these two settings to get the mix to sound right and avoid clipping, though in the time I spent testing the unit, these controls were intuitive and easy to set. And while the original iRig provided superior sound, it was limited in that you were unable to customize the input gain level to your particular setup. The iRig HD 2 compliments IK’s series of compact audio interfaces designed to record guitar, bass guitar and line-level devices with minimum fuss on an iOS device or computer.Note that the iRig HD 2 now comes with AmpliTube 5 SE which then makes in-app purchases available for different amps and pedals.

A 96kHz sample rate, low noise, and high quality preamp ensures you’re getting pristine sound with no compromises or unwanted artifacts. I made the changes to reflect the inclusion of AmpliTube 5, but I’m not seeing anything on the product page about an adapter cable for USB-C. iRig 2's new 1/4” output jack lets you use iRig 2 with an amplifier as a part of your live rig without the use of an adaptor. Open up a whole new tonal palette thanks to AmpliTube's extensive range of add on collections and relish in sonic versatility right at your fingertips. Italian manufacturer IK Multimedia is in that mix, with their flagship AmpliTube amplifier and effects modeling software and plug-in.Since I was using a Mac, the first step was to go to Settings - Sound and set the iRig HD 2 as both my input and output devices. Another small box inside contains two cables: a Lightning cable to connect the iRig to an iOS device, and a USB cable to connect it to a Mac or PC. Keep in mind that it's not able to drive high impedance headphones properly however IEMs work just fine. Send your signal directly to your guitar amp effortlessly thanks to an Amp Out jack and dual mode switch, you will be able to deliver a dynamic, mesmerising set without any stress. Without registering the product the accompanying software cannot be registered and is therefore only available in demo mode for a limited amount of days (9 if I remember correctly).

Do a quick study of the guitar interfaces out there and immediately you’ll see what we mean by a “higher level”.iRig HD 2 will free your mind from the confines of tradition and inspire you to be your creative best.
