Good for a portable interface
DragoLago 25.02.2023
It connects to a variety of DAWs with ease.

I tried it with Garageband and Logic pro with no noticeable issues. I was also able to connect it to my iPad for practice sessions on the go with ease. However the version of Amplitube that it ships with leaves a lot to be desired especially on bass guitar. The sound quality when recording bass is ok but nothing to write home about. Monitoring was quick and i was not able to detect lag from processing the bass to the in ear monitors with the fx loop switched off.

Keep in mind that it's not able to drive high impedance headphones properly however IEMs work just fine.

A quick and easy tool
Niels2526 28.04.2019
I use the iRig to quickly hook an interface up to my computer to get some okay tones. It is nice to have access to the full Amplitube software when buying this interface, but you still have to buy the really nice effects/amps in Amplitube if you want stellar sounds. The device itself has a rather flimsy feel to it, but you can't expect a high quality casing for this price. I find it a very useful tool to quickly record ideas on the go but for more advanced studio recordings I would definitely go for a more professional and sturdy interface.

It's great, if you buy the bulk unlock
misterfinster 27.01.2023
Everything works as described, but if you were expecting to explore and experiment, you have to buy into the packs and unlocks. I bought it for my son, and I wanted him to be able to explore without hitting a pay-wall, so I dumped an extra chunk of money so his experience was 'free from burden'. It would be nice if the rig came with a bit more 'amps, pedals, FX, etc.'.

Doesn't sound that good
Mats Bing 21.11.2020
Bought this to be able to play while traveling.
Does the job but doesn't sound that good. My main concern are the delay and reverb effects, which in my opinion sounds quite bad.

An okay interface
borsothy 01.01.2018
The interface sounds allright, the controls are intuitive and simple. It's pretty small and portable, so that's definitely a plus. Might just be me (or my broken settings), but I experience some minor delay in the sound coming back from the computer. It's a shame that the software bundled with this product is practically a demo version, and you have to pay extra money to unlock it's full potential.

At first glance it looks and sounds ok

- easy to connect to Garage band
- easy to connect to Amplitube
- recorded sound is quite good
- all USB cables provided

But
1. Included Amplitube 4 is very limited
2. Too high latency: 28ms

The high latency was a reason to send the device back.
