IK and Fender announce Fender Collection 2 for AmpliTube

IK Multimedia and Fender have announced the Fender Collection 2 for AmpliTube, a collaboration with Fender Musical Instruments Corporation that models some of the tones of the golden years of Fender's amplifiers to AmpliTube for Mac and PC.

Fender Collection 2 for AmpliTube provides recreations of seven of Fender's most sought after vintage amplifiers and reissues from the '50s and '60s. Included in the Fender Collection 2 for AmpliTube are five amps from the '57 Custom series; the '57 Custom Champ, '57 Custom Deluxe, '57 Custom Twin, '57 Custom Pro and the '57 Custom Bandmaster, plus models of an original '53 Fender Bassman and the iconic '65 Fender Super Reverb.

The Fender Collection 2 for AmpliTube takes advantage of Dynamic Interaction Modeling, the evolution of IK's modeling technology, which is designed to recreate not only the individual physical components in the amplifiers' design from the preamp input to the speaker cone and beyond, but also the nonlinear behavior between each component and its effect on other components in the amp, and provide a new level of realism, touch, and feel.

Fender Collection 2 works inside of AmpliTube for Mac and PC. Fender Collection 2 is designed to take advantage of all the tone-tweaking features inside of AmpliTube 4 — features like the effects slot between the amp and speaker cabinet and the speaker "Cab Room".

Price: $/€149.99 - Fender Collection 2 for AmpliTube will be available in December 2016 and is now open for pre-order at a special price of $/€99.99 from the IK Online Store.

Fender Collection 2 will also be available in a bundle with AmpliTube 4 (within the Power Duo Bundle series) for only $/€229.99. It is also now open for pre-order at a special price of $/€179.99 from the IK Online Store.
