Thanks to ToneStack's state-of-the-art “Virtual Circuit” technology, each ToneStack unit is the digital mirror image of a real analog topology. Unlike other FX apps that try to copycat with EQing and other gimmicks, ToneStack recreates the intricate designs of the real thing. The result is a warm, responsive tone with the natural behavior you find in analog units.
Best Selection of Pro Amps & FX
ToneStack offers a huge range of amps, cabs & FX: from sparkly clean to sizzling hot bias tube amps, iconic stompboxes, pro-grade rack units, and high-end reverbs, ToneStack is the most complete plugin suite on the iOS.
Right away, enjoy 6 classic amps & cabs, and 21 meticulously designed FX. Expand to a total of 46 amps, 44 cabs, and 101 FX – the largest collection on iOS.
ToneStack also brings many powerful guitar FX to the iOS for the first time: polyphonic octaver, harmonizer, realistic spring reverbs, virtual-reel tape delays are just a few examples.
The Most Versatile Signal Chain on iOS
Why be limited with just 4 or 8 FX that other guys max you out at? ToneStack lets you run a whopping 64 amps & effects simultaneously* so you can let your imagination run wild.
For even more power, ToneStack includes our unique original ABY unit. Split your signal anywhere: run dual amp setups, switch or blend FX chains, or multiplex your signal via frequency splitting – countless permutations, all up to you.
You can match any amp with any cab (all cabs have 3 mics with distance & position settings); you can insert any unit anywhere – even between amps and cabs like a true FX loop. Managing your signal chain is as easy as dragging and dropping an icon!

ToneStack App Comments & Reviews
ToneStack Positive Reviews
Another great app from YonacI’ve been trying a few different options for real-time multi effects to use on synths and saxophone. Some laptop VST effects, individual effects on iOS (Filtatron), Amplitube, etc. I think the overall audio quality on ToneStack is quite good. In particular, I really like the Echo and Magellan filter. Where I think the Yonac app really excels is the user interface. It’s very intuitive and even on iPhone it’s very easy to create a chain with 4 or 5 effects and switch them on and off. While I could chain together an excellent group of effects using my laptop host, using a mouse pointer isn’t the easiest way to control everything. I’m very glad that I decided to check this out..Version: 3.3
NOTHING touches Tonestack, NOTHING....Hands down the best guitar sound processing app on the appstore, or anywhere else, for that matter (Bias amp is Good, and Bias Fx is, too, but it is too buggy and hard to tweak just right to get it to sound decent, and every effect added to an amp, diminishes the sound quality, quite extraordiinarily — NONE OF THAT WITH TONESTACK). All the effects here in Tonestack, are fantastic sounding, and quite organic, too, as are all the amplifiers (the Vox and Fender amps are STUNNING). It seems like most people griping here about it either don’t have a decent interface with which to use it, and so as to be able to tweak it just right to get all the available monster tones, or simply aren’t experimenting with it enough. Some of the negative reviews actually shock me, because Tonestack sounds so good to me, and right out of the gate. Every time. Anyway, I have been using it since its inception (around 2014) and it’s hands down my go to app for guitar, and I have them ALL. I wish to God they made a desktop version for the Mac, but who knows if that will ever happen. Also, Yonac, I’M TALKIN’ TO YOU!! Are there going to be any updates soon, it has been a year now, without an update...perhaps NEW GEAR SOON?? Love you guys!!.Version: 3.3
Pocket Guitar Effects SuiteSo I love analog effects and tubes and vintage gear. I have spent too much money on things my skill level doesn't deserve. What Yonac has made here is truly breath taking. The sound quality of these effects are the best out of all the iOS apps, yes I bought them all, yes they are all good, this is the best. The effects are so good that sometimes when I'm recording using waves plugins (guitar tool kit) on Logic Pro, I think to myself, I wish I could use Yonac's ToneStack in Logic Pro, no joke that has crossed my mind several times. If they make a plugin pack for logic I will buy it. There is a downside to this, it can be a major distraction when it comes to productivity during practice, I usually end up just jamming with myself and doing layering on layering on layering and not actually practicing, and that is because the delays and reverbs are truly incredible. This full suite is well worth the price for any fellow effects lover, it's just truly fun. Things that don't work very well? Wah's, Whammy, really anything that uses a midi expression pedal, and that's just cuz midi expression pedals are not as smooth as real ones, unless someone knows of a better one I should be using, please tell me! bottom line: If you like playing with guitar effects, buy this and an iRig Pro or Apogee Jam to go with it. Turns your phone into a pedal board that fits in your pocket. P.S. I have done a few live shows using just my iPhone running ToneStack and a midi foot pedal switch and plugging into the venues PA. Every time other guitarists onsite are blown away by the tone and effects I get out of a 40 dollar app. Truly this thing is incredible..Version: 3.3
Tone doesn't Stack upLet me preface this by saying I recently switched from a 12 pedal pedalboard to an iPad based setup with a guitar wing and source audio hot hand USB for control. I mostly just wanted to copy the setup I have on my pedalboard but for full wireless and pedal free operation. Have been using bias fx, but got this because I really like how much better the midi control options are on this. Really wanted this to work because the midi control is pretty great. However, it doesn't deliver where it counts: the sound. The overdrive/distortion sounds just don't cut it, they sound like modeled tones, whereas bias actually sounds real. Tried really hard to dial in convincing tones and couldn't do it. Also, the phase 90 clone is horrible and tone sucking, and that's a huge part of my playing, so that is a killer right there. The ups: I will say though, I use the wah as a iaa w/ bias, it sounds much better and responds much better to midi control. Echorec in ToneStack sounds pretty good too. I might try the poly octave too, because I'm not terribly happy w/ bias fx's version. I mean, if you want 90's/early 00's level modeling sounds, this has a ton of options, and great control... but I'm accustomed to the real gear, and the Tone just doesn't Stack up for what I need on the core sounds..Version: 3.3
I’m blown away. Great sounding App!I have been waiting for the sale on the mother load and bundles and got them and they are amazing!!! I’m a producer/keyboard player who plays guitar for “fun” but don’t consider myself a pro by any mean but I do have heard and played with MANY amp sims going back to the original line6 POD years ago and I really think the amp and Stomp sims are outstanding in tonestack. I haven’t played a lot since earlier this year and took it out and hooked up to tonestack and played for like 3 hours till my fingers were sore ! So much fun trying different Amps and stomps! I then ran my montage clavinet wound through the wah and cranked a Marshall with delay wow what a sound. Can’t wait to incorporate tonestack into my live rig and start playing again! Thanks YONAC!.Version: 3.3
I'm Blown Away!I own every app that Yonac has developed for iOS. They're very good with synthesizers. I just didn't think they would be able to do an amp modeler. I'm glad they proved me wrong. The ability to mix amplifiers is probably my favorite feature in this app. This gives me a more professional sounding studio sound. It's got everything from crystal clean Fender style sounds to over-the-top distortion like you find in today's metal. The effects don't just sound good, they also have mix controls so you can dial-in as much or as little as you like. I'm very impressed with this apps amplifier selection. They've got it all here. If you're looking to do some direct recording and you want the best sounds that you can get, I think this is what you're looking for. I need to add on major gripe. The noise gate is horrible. The high gain amps with drive pedals make a lot of noise and the noise gate just doesn't cut it at all. This is very important if you like intense gain saturation. This is a glaring flaw in my opinion but others may disagree. Good luck to you..Version: 1.3
The Best!I've been trying to find a good amp sim for 10+ years, including various hardware modelers. I've tried all the iOS apps and this leaves them in the dust; I've yet to find a better, organic 'tube' sound and have drawn compliments using this for open mics. The only nits: while it is possible to save/share settings, the app doesn't have any kind of community feature to faciliate sharing presets (the company's forum has a thread for this, but it isn't very active). I also wish there were a way to get ToneStack on my Mac!.Version: 3.3
Stop reading, Start playing ! inSTUDIO 8 is 🔥After extensive research obsessing over every Amp Sim in this store I made the leap and now spend my time playing thru ToneStack rather than reading hundreds more reviews comparing each of these. I've been using it a year now and still love it! Yonac is committed to continued support (*cough* I'm looking at you JamUp Pro *cough*) Everyone boasts the rich warm tones and untouchable modulation effects, admittedly superb, but the Acoustic Amp sims put a Gibson Hummingbird, Martin, or Taylor in my hands. Equally underrated is the inSTUDIO 8-track recorder, simply outstanding. Until Apple ports Logic Pro X to iOS, this 8-track serves as my DAW and supports routing other apps (even you BiasFX ) thru Inter-App-Audio. It's got everything, MIDI, ABY, the whole 9. Put on some headphones, or feed your amps Send/Return Loop and enjoy true stereo chorus, phasers, Flangers, etc. You won't be disappointed! 🤘🏻.Version: 3.3
Love it! The Whammy pedal is perfect!Tones are great. That said,not all the tones are great, but most are very useable. I never use presets anyway. Create your own patches, and the sky is the limit. Have bought some of the amps and pedals,they do not disappoint...it’s a smorgasbord of sounds for not a lot of dough. I’m a seasoned musician ang studio guy,and I’m having a blast with this! Get it! PS. Recording is a breeze,and the studio is very straightforward,good for noobs ...Version: 3.3
Something got fixed and now it’s awesomeEdit: after the update to iOS 11, everything is working and it is awesome. I use this now. Old post: I have to restore purchases every time I open it. Every. Single. Time. I use Jam Up Pro for this reason. Normally I love Yonac apps, but this problem has been here since the 2.0 update..Version: 3.3
Truly spectacular and gloriousAs a garageband owner I have enjoyed their guitar amps, but I had no idea tonestack would be the end all and be all. This is, no doubt, the greatest app I have ever owned. I can just plug in and play these astounding amps and effects for hours. As an electric guitar player I would normally quibble, BUT I’M NOT EVEN GOING TO QUIBBLE. Hats off to Yonac..Version: 3.3
Great all purpose guitar appThe standard version comes with a solid array of gear to use. The extra gear is also reasonably priced. I do wish there was a try before you buy feature, but they often put gear packages on sale as a bonus..Version: 3.3
PopsSounds great. My issue is after playing for a few minutes it makes a popping sound through my amp. I close the app and open it back up and it’s fine. I play for a few minutes and it begins popping again..Version: 3.3
My favorite iOS guitar rigI tried several products like this, I find it easier to dial in my sound with ToneStack.Version: 3.3
It’s the best amp sim on any platformSo many tones; it’s so worth it..Version: 3.3
QuestionWhat is the difference between ToneStack and ToneStack Go?.Version: 3.3
The best!The best amp and effects app on iOS!.Version: 3.3
Please AUv3 this.Please. AUv3 🙂🙂🙂.Version: 3.3
Criminally underrated, amongst competition from great apps, ToneStack may be iOS's best amp modelerBecause Amplitube has licensed name brands like Fender and Marshall, it seems to get the most attention. BIAS and JamUp Pro used excellent sounds and extreme customization to become an iOS guitarists favorite. Amplitube to me is more sizzle than steak, it looks great but the sounds aren't happening. BIAS/JamUp has some incredible tones for a digital amp sim but the extra amps, bundles and BIAS FX are really quite pricey and not all of the amps & effects are as good as the best the amp delivers. But this amp modeler ToneStack is something different...first off, the pricing is very good, especially during the sale that was on when I bought the app and complete expansion bundle for well below what BIAS FX's entry price point is with zero expansion packs. Secondly, the array of believable, and most importantly, useable amp tones is staggering. The app that comes closest to ToneStacks brilliant sound quality is Peavey's Ampkit which is another underrated gem. I have Amplitube with complete add-ons, JamUpPro & BIAS and Ampkit with all the add-ons loaded on my Air 2 and to me adding ToneStack wasn't overkill or a waste of dough. This app just does some things better than those others do. As a guitarist who digs editing sounds and having lots of options to work with, ToneStack is a brilliant guitar tool that is much more than just another "app"..Version: 1.7
This is the one.After trying free versions of several other guitar amp and pedal sims, I have settled on this one, not just because it sounds good (though I can't say it has a clear edge in some regards than say Amplitube or even the Mobile Pod app that came with my Sonic Port), but it is unquestionably the most usable. It's the only app I found that lets the user adjust input gain, which is a must for an interface like mine that doesn't allow hardware adjustments. It also allows adjustments to the simulation quality and the input buffer size, which is also unique to this app alone. I have not needed a manual (yet), but I have been working with music production software for quite some time as a recording and mix engineer, so that give me an unfair advantage. I find it very straightforward to use, regardless. Highly recommended. I use it mainly as an "effects pedalboard" with the IK Blueboard. I went all in for $65, and that was money worth paying. Nice that it didn't constantly bother me to buy expansions like Amplitube does. And it is a universal app... I don't have to buy a separate version for the iPad like BIAS makes its customers do (funny that they recently pulled the iPhone version of BIAS FX... hmm...).Version: 2.1
Best iOS guitar rig by farFor some reason everyone seems to assume these days that Bias/Jamup Pro/Bias FX are the best, end of discussion. I have all the Positive Grid apps and while they are certainly good, they are not untouchable. Tonestack has significantly better signal routing options than Jamup Pro, and I prefer the amp sounds and most of the effects in Tonestack over Bias and Jamup as well. I'm a Marshall guy, and the '67 Anglia Marshall in Tonestack has the dynamics, the gritty, airy midrange, and rough low end of a mid-late 60's Super Lead (think live Cream, Hendrix, and Kossof) that so far I haven't heard in any other Sub-Kemper/Axfx modeler, Bias included. It seems the other iOS modelers aim for an ideal Marshall tone rather than a realistic one. I've also used my actual fuzz pedals (Fulltone 69 and 70) in front of the Apogee Jam with Tonestack and it sounds great. Can't say that about the other iOS apps. Love the ribbon mic tone on the cab sim too, warm but detailed. The Jtm45 model also sounds very accurate with a zingy top end and slightly muddy lower mids just like the real thing. I can't speak for all the amp sounds/mother load etc, but I've been using it for about a month now and so far I'm just as happy with it now as day one..Version: 1.4
Keep an eye on this oneI own most of the notable amp and fx modelers for guitar, and although Tone Stack doesn't have the overall polish of Jam Up or Amp Kit, it still has something to offer. I feel Tone Stack beats out the others when it comes to the tone and tweakability of effects. I like that Tone Stack gives the option to bypass the amp modeling and use it purely as an effects processor, as I prefer the sound of my own amp. Also, the line selector functionality is very cool and really expands your tonal options. I hope future updates streamline the UI, as flipping through modules and saving your setup is less intuitive than other programs. The ability to more easily identify what effects are on or off would also be welcome..Version: 1.0
Wow. That's all.I think somewhere deep down I still didn't consider iThingies as bona-fide music production tools. I believed I already thought highly of their potential, but my immediate reaction to this app made it clear that I was living a lie. I'm not looking for a program that will make me or my device sould like a gazillion-dollar recording studio. (Gasp.) I'm not trying to imagine what that would sound or feel like. In fact, I don't want to imagine at all; I want to remember. What I remembered while playing with this app in the Audiobus effects slot was being about 14 years old, sitting on the edge of the bed with lime green shag carpeting on the floor, and me with my old Gibson and one flip-flop (so I could use the stomp box without getting a sore spot on the bottom of my foot), trying to coax the perfect sound out of an amplifier that was so old it had no right to be considered anything but a fire hazard. Brought a tear to my eye. This app is the real deal. It's immediately clear that a lot of effort and attention went to accuracy. This isn't like some random photo filter app where every setting gets a neat name that doesn't really mean anything... When Yonac says "vintage british", you can actually hear it. Change the lineup to something more "90s", and before I'm done wondering "what in the world is one setup called '90s' going to sound like", I'm trying to wipe that cheezy grin off my face again. There's enough accuracy here to put on a blindfold and learn some things. Absolutely perfect sound quality. If there's a 'pop' or a 'click', it's supposed to be there. Thank you, Yonac. For an app that can bring a nostalgic tear to my eye, you can name your price..Version: 1.1
The guitar app I use.This developer must be a very compassionate musician/software empath. Because after all the phq'n around I have done just to find guitar apps that have adequate interoperability, real time control schemes and BT & hi-speed networking of aforementioned, this app delivers. Oh yeah and sounds great. YONAC delivers. Buy the whole enchilada it stands alone and plays well with others. I could rave about individual amps, cabs, effects, utilities, and so on. However suffice to say that each and every one of them bring a unique flavor to a great overall experience. I love it. And I love the fact that when I bought the whole v.2 motherload it was really the complete product and v.3 was even better. I have pretty much tried all the guitar apps for iOS. This is the app I use. Honest I'm not a YONAC shill. This program is great. Thanks for the read. EJL.Version: 3.1
Great for practice and live use!I'm using this with a BlueBoard and not only has it been ridiculously convenient, but it also sounds INCREDIBLE. The BlueBoard needs button 'A' remapped to control '1' instead of the default '0' for ToneStack to recognize the CC, but after that it was smooth sailing. The 'mix' knob on the ABY pedal is mapped to a single button on the BB so I can switch between 2 signal paths (clean or dirty) by just toggling that button. Other buttons are mapped to delays and boosts. My expression pedal is hooked up to a wah and, with 'state control' enabled, turns off when completely heel down. The other expression input on the BB has a tiny DIY momentary switch that is connected to tap tempo in ToneStack. This rig is perfect for my needs: portable, lightweight (bad back), and sounds awesome. Yonac knows what they are doing..Version: 1.4
It works with Audiobus...I had to search this app out after Bias and related apps stopped working with IOS 8. I prefer the sound to Bias, and it works beautifully as an inter-app plug in in Auria. A little pricey, but they've put the time in to make it work with the new IOS, and I record nearly every day-so...they earned my money by keeping up. I have found the Yonac apps to be very well made overall. Nice work folks!.Version: 1.3
ExcellentI use Bias and I love it, but I read about this and thought I'd check it out at the introductory price. So far it's a great modeling app with many nice options even in the base setup. By far the most impressive and standout feature is the ABY splitter, which lets you set up separate chains for left and right channels. I've just started to dig into this, but the possibilities seem endless, mixing different amps, cabs, and effects across the left and right, and having the ability to control the separation. The preset chains give you great examples of the potential of ABY. Try it, you'll get hooked. One thing I would love is the ability to control the AB pan with an expression pedal....Version: 1.2
Updated review - this app is the bestFirst off, I really do wish there was a user guide to help people understand how to go through and setup and save amps, how to tweak them while you're using them (how to get to the actual amp settings after setup), etc. That said, I've figured most of this out and this app blows away the others in terms of amp choices and sounds. Just incredible. I'm using almost exclusively what I think is a JCM 900 and EVH amp (both of which were additional purchases) and they are incredible. I think the California bear is a rectifier for Metallica as well, which i think sounds great as well. Really pleased..Version: 2.1
The Beast of Effects Got BetterThis is simply a beast of an effects rack! I have been using this on guitar, voice and keyboards. I'm getting really good results. Going against their closest rival, you know who they are, I'm inclined to use this more often. I can use ToneStack on my iPad and iPhone using the same app, unlike the other guys that require different apps. Version 2.0 finally got bass amps! If they can bring keyboard amps this will round their package. The app is unpretentious and has a lot of items, it does effects amazingly well, thanks for giving us this much power..Version: 2.1
One of the more well-rounded iOS guitar appsToneStack is an instant competitor with JamUp, BIAS, Flying Haggis, and Agile AmpKit, all of which have their high and low points. As an intial release version, developer Yonac has crammed a mind-boggling amount of content into this app. And while not all of it is great, there's so much that is good, and it's so varied in type, that it's hard to argue against the value of the base purchase, or even the $50 Motherload package if you really like what you try out. I could go on and on about this very deep app, but want to respond to a criticism about the amps sounding "thin and weak". First, don't use the default presets supplied by Yonac. Set up your own chains, plug in YOUR guitar, and adjust the amp to that setup. Second, it should be noted that the default settings are a bit extreme. On some devices, the audio quality is set to "medium" instead of high or very high (to improve performance). Adjusting this will help, as will fixing the Treble and Presence settings that seem to default to "11". But I totally disagree with the amps being "thin" - the Bassman and Marshall amps are as ballsy as you could ask for. Even the Fenders - if set up properly - sound full and realistic. The effects in ToneStack are the main attention-grabber. I can't say that the app is a better overall package than JamUp (yet), but it already offers some effects options like stereo delay and A/B splitting that aren't available or aren't done as well as they are here. The app is outstanding for an initial release, but I would like to see IAA instrument functionality added, and I've heard the IAA effects slot usage is a bit unreliable. Also, the button presses are occasionally unresponsive on the main screen, and the overall app could probably use a little bit of optimization. But even my iPad 2 can handle it and it just sounds great. It's a dizzying volume of content in the Motherload package, and I end up playing it for far longer than I mean to when I sit down!.Version: 1.0
Great sound, fun looksI've purchased most of the guitar amp and effects sims for iPad and iPhone, including JamUp Pro, its successor Bias FX, and Flying Haggis. The sound of this one is up there with the best of them, and it keeps improving. The reproduction of the Boss chorus pedal is the best I've found on an iPad. The two Motherlodes are a great way to explore the history of guitar amps and effects in seemingly infinite combinations. I also like the look of the individual units and their witty names. Thank you, Jim Yonac, for this wonderful instrument..Version: 2.1
Ver 2 is a big upgrade. Great app. Edited.After a week of using this app, having had a chance to delve into every amp and effect I can't speak more highly it. This app is a must have now. Out of all the guitar amp & effect apps, there are about 7 that are worth considering. Tonestack previously was in the middle of the pack. With this latest version upgrade they improved everything, but especially two areas where it was weak. Poor high gain sounds and a delay between switching presets that made it unusable for changing sounds in a song when playing live. Now this app in my opinion is the best of its kind. Definitely worth getting. Lastly I have to give kudos to the developer for providing a reasonable price upgrade path for existing owners..Version: 2.0
Good sounding Guitar appI will echo Gitarzz words: The noise gate is horrible, doesn't do a whole lot. I can't figure out if I can dial in some heavy tones because it is always squealing and screaching with high gain amps and distortion pedals. I love the always on tuner, that is very cool. I feel that the sounds/effects are a bit, ?? electronic sounding? I still prefer JamUp Pro to anything out there, the sound quality is second to none. But, for the intro price, the base of the app is very very good..Version: 1.3
Endless awesomenessAbout a month ago or so, I had never even heard of ToneStack 1 day before I bought the Motherload. Was comparing Bias vs Jamup and others I was already familiar with. Always found the Bias stuff a bit confusing--is x app just for tubes, amps, pedals, and what else do I need? Where does one end and the other begin? Anyway, in my Googling I found some reviews of this app. I did as much research on it as I could, and was shortly sold on the Motherload. Coming from Mobile Pod--which came with my Sonic Port, there is NO comparison. I really loved Mobile Pod until I tried ToneStack. I haven't looked back once. This app ROCKS. I seem to be able to dial in most tones I'm shooting for. The possibilities are almost endless. I only experienced latency when I burdened my iPad Air 2's CPU with a long effects chain including a noise gate. Otherwise, the tones are superb and I haven't experienced any latency in normal use apart from one preset -- the name alludes me right now. I would really like to see an ecosystem for user presets--I hope Yonac will consider that resource. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be interested in that kind of community exchange. Creating artist or cover song tones can be time-consuming. Things can get pretty sophisticated with this app. ABY switch opens so many possibilities and teaches me about higher level stuff I normally wouldn't encounter. It's so much fun geeking out on this app that it can eat into my practice time. And by no means am I a gear guru. Again, it's a completely different level of than Mobile Pod IMHO. Despite all its options, you don't have to have a degree in engineering to get started. It's fairly plug-n-play. It was intuitive enough that I didn't have to spend hours figuring everything out. BTW, dig the convenience of having the tuner built into the main interface. Just an example of coolness, I created a semi-believable 12 string acoustic model using a polyoctave box with an acoustic model. How cool is that? So many more options I haven't yet explored, but this is an exciting app, and well worth the price of the Motherload. I hope they continue developing new amp models (like... a Dumble Steel Stringer). BTW, Big kudos to Yonac for this gem..Version: 3.1
The best out there!Forget amplitude, forget ampkit, jamup. This is what you are looking for. It is so simple to use! The sounds are amazing and you can use it in Reaper without having too use it like a plug in. Works with Audiobuss too. I plugged in my guitar and found presets that made me sound amazing. You can't beat the price and the selections of sound that come pre installed in this app. This is a must have..Version: 1.4
Very good, but IAP issue (solved!)Have used since release, and it's excellent sounding. Knocking off a point because the Motherload v3 IAP I purchased on one device is not restorable on my second device, although that worked fine for the Motherload v2 IAP I also purchased previously. Update - that issue has been fixed in recent update. Rating revised to 5 stars..Version: 3.1
Excellent amp and effect sim.I have them all.. but what makes this one stand out is the A/B splitter mixer...I can create chains of effects like I do on my Fractal audio axe-fx...the sound is amazing...I have created a Pat Metheny signal chain with the delays split into two channels after being fed by a chorus effect into both channels and all this right after the amp...couldn't do this in other amp sims..great app!.Version: 1.4
Simply THE BEST!Save your time and $$ and get this wonderful App and the great add-ons you want to use with it. You won't be disappointed! These guys KNOW what they're doing and produce truly great products. As a Songwriter/ Musician, I've been recording in Pro Tools and Logic for the past 15 years. I decided to start using an iPad for my project ideas and portability and have to say that this App is at the core of my music. The sounds from this App rival the sounds I get micing my Marshall & Mesa Tube Amps and I'll probably end up using the tracks in PT & Logic for my final mixes. The beautiful, streamlined interface is VERY user friendly and if you need Tech Support it's actually there. You Get What You Pay For!.Version: 1.3
Blown awayI am using this in combination with a Roland Duo-Capture EX to provide a virtual fx rack for my Minimoog XL. I really only needed the custom shop studio bundle along with the Cosmic Echo as I'm a keyboardist. So for a minimal investment I'm completely set. Very cool how you can pick and choose what matters most for your needs. Will be getting the 8 track next for sure. Amazing stuff, recommend all their apps.Version: 3.1
The BestI sell I rigs and other equipment. I have all the apps...Bias, stomp box, Amplitude and others..Tonestack is by far the best of all of them. Also, all this talk about pedals and analog amps, that is what we call "mystic voodoo guitar crap". I take my iPad, Irig, Tonestack, plug into my amp and I have hundreds of the best setups and tones out there. Wake up guitar boys, this is the way to go......Thanks and we look forward.....Version: 2.3
Ridiculous valueYou can argue differences between amplitube/jamup/ampkit etc., they all have their pluses and minuses - tonestack is up with the best of them - and imo, gives you a lot more options and bang for the $. It really comes down to how you use it. But just consider; the whole thing cost less than a single pedal - just own it..Version: 1.4
