Oh no. Recording latency? I thought it was playback latency that was being improved.

I'm certainly one of those people. Android needs a lot more dev to get the platform rolling for audio to be competitive w ios sadly (imo)

Assuming devs translate all the great ios guitar apps to android.

Someone may have been putting words in our mouth, the first post from us says:

near zero latency and real-time audio processing

And for the general interest of the thread it has already been measured, for the skeptical (and it will be at NAMM as stated):

Other developers/manufacturers are also of course welcome to take some time away from their booths and come to Hall A, Booth 6520 to check it out.

That's 2.2ms on an Android! Not on some specific brand, just generic. This is so cool!
Hardware device if fine by me. Some docking station with jacks would be great.

Will this be usable with either a Nexus 5 phone or Nexus 7 Tablet? I'm not sure if this announcement will be software or hardware but I think both Nexus 5 and 7 are rootable if that matters. Anyways would love to have Amplitube for android and I'm sure many more will when its available

Yes, I have a Nexus 7 and even though I just got Lollipop OTA update which we all (or most of us) are getting, this will still kick butt.

Excited to see this, yay!

Off-topic for Nexus users getting Lollipop, if you didn't search around and just accepted the OTA update (which was my mistake, which is not like me but I got tired of waiting and searching after a little while when I thought we'd get it faster) don't get freaked out if the update takes a LONG time upon reboot. I thought it was stuck but was not, it just takes a while at the "spinning balls" [chuckle] and then a good long time optimizing apps (but the latter part shows progress to you).

But you need an OTG USB cable. Included, of course.

I was wondering why there was not a lot of other apps showing up.
Is IK going to license this to other app makers?
Audio bridge and MIDI to/from other apps also in the works?
This could be revolutionary.

Nearly right.... It was a silver box

and it only work with a special version of Amplitube (so far I guess other stuff will follow)

Try near-zero Latency on Android at NAMM 2015!
