Lol nice guess. I haven't heard anything on Audiobus, so its safe to say that won't be in this update. BUT we do have some other COOL features coming still...

And now the $ ??.?? question: will this be a free upgrade for existing Amplitube users or a new paid version?

Oh: and please tone down the frequency of the purchase requests: one type per app launch (and all on the very first launch if you insist) should be enough. It.serves no purpose to interrupt the user workflow with information we are already aware of other than to generate annoyance.

This and the lack of a USB input has given me pause. Do these pop ups become less frequent once a single purchase has been made?

Right now we are focused on the development and testing, more details will be announced closer to release.

On the issue of popups, you are not supposed to get them for things you already have and supposed to be limited. I will have someone look at this.

The update will be free, but it will also contain new in-app purchases to further expand your app.

New leaked pic of the update on Facebook now...

The AmpliTube 2.5 update is up now, and it is a MASSIVE update!
New features, redesigned mixer/recorder, NEW GEAR (available via in-app purchase

Awesome, can't wait to download!

Joy! Been hanging out for this update. Gonna test it out tonight.

Well, now I can compare it against Ampkit and see how I like it. It wasn't even willing to consider it before, because I don't do realtime audio on my iPad, just phrases of saved audio. One can't have too many amps and effects. Also, from what I understand, there is an in-app update that allows vocal effects too. I think it will be worth checking out now.

My guess would be that floor pedal controls will be able to be used--but then again, I haven't used this app, and it may have already had this.

Yup, you can assign the pedals to different MIDI controllers! Plus you can also use CoreAudio, Retina display, new Slash gear models and copy/paste!

Just dl'd Slash...very nice. This may be old news too but I ordered from the custom shop without buying credits...with my jam points I paid $43.99. No matter what haters say IK is a great company...

I love my Amplitube on my iTouch. I do not like the iPad because it won't fit in my pocket, and I use it for so many other things I can't leave home without it. HOWEVER, the iTouch version of Amplitube is limited to 3 the first of which MUST be a noise gate, so we're really limited to TWO effects. It would be nice to have the noise gate as a default so we could TRULY have THREE effects - or, even better, like Ampkit, even more than three.

Thanks for the kind words!

Check out the new Recorder/mixer features in the free update!
