“We may not all be able to afford a Gibson Slash Les Paul and his signature Marshall AFD 100 amp, but now with AmpliTube Slash you can at still rock out with a version of Slash’s iconic tone.”
Peter Hodgson of I Heart Guitar has been playing and writing about guitars and equipment for years, and now he has his hands on IK’s newest app: AmpliTube Slash. He takes a look and plays through the amps and effects, and shares his thoughts on the tone, gear, and features that you get with the app. Check out a few quotes from his review:
“We may not all be able to afford a Gibson Slash Les Paul and his signature Marshall AFD 100 amp, but now with AmpliTube Slash you can at still rock out with a version of Slash’s iconic tone.”
“The cleans are very crisp and lively,… and the overdriven rhythm sounds are chunky and rich.”
“Lead sounds are sweet and expressive.”
“The chorus is very musical and flexible.”
“For me the real standout is the OctoBlue. This stomper adds sub-octave fuzzy goodness to your tone, and even if you typically record with physical amps, the two stock presets are record-worthy.”
“It’s fun, it’s certainly recordable especially if you need those great clean and overdriven sounds, and it’s incredibly easy to use.“
“AmpliTube Slash is a great tool for easily tapping into Slash’s legendary tone.”
