Load up your iPhone or iPad with true Fender tones, with the IK Multimedia AmpliTube Fender app. Now available, The AmpliTube Fender guitar rig app features built-in "recording studios" that offer tones designed and developed in close cooperation with Fender.

Based on the desktop version of AmpliTube Fender, the app includes five Fender amp models: the ’65 Deluxe Reverb, the Super-Sonic, the ’65 Twin Reverb, the ’59 Bassman LTD, and the Pro Junior. Six Fender stompbox models are included as well: Tape Delay, Compressor, the Fender Blender, Phaser, Overdrive, and Noise Filter.

The AmpliTube Fender signal chain allows you to build full Fender rigs with three simultaneous stompbox effects on iPhone or iPod Touch (and four on iPad) running into an amplifier head, speaker cabinet, and microphone. Each element of the tone may be selected and tweaked.

The app also features a practicing tool that allows you to import audio material to play along with or change its tempo without affecting the pitch. The app's SpeedTrainer feature lets you slow down backing tracks to learn complex riffs, or speed them up for practicing playing skills. Songs and backing tracks or loops can be loaded directly from the iPod library on the iOS device or from the computer.

In addition, the app comes with a built-in single-track recorder with Re-Amping, expandable to a full-featured 4-track recorder on iPhone or an 8-track recorder on iPad, both with a master effects section. Ideas can be captured and then shared, with the export feature. According to IK Multimedia, an entire band can be recorded, or full songs and compositions can be produced directly in AmpliTube Fender.
