Virtual versions of X-GEAR guitar pedals available in IK Multimedia's AmpliTube 5
IK's FREE update for all AmpliTube 5 users lets them try every X-GEAR effect
IK Multimedia offers a FREE update to all AmpliTube 5 users, premiering virtual versions of the four AmpliTube X-GEAR pedals to demo and purchase, and to anticipate the imminent hardware release.
With version 5.1, virtual X-GEAR pedals are now available in AmpliTube 5 via the Custom Shop with immediate access to X-SPACE, X-TIME, X-DRIVE and X-VIBE.
The process for demoing X-GEAR is the same as for any gear in AmpliTube 5 with the same 72-hour trial period, allowing users to fully test the 16 effects and different controls of each pedal.
Furthermore, users can choose between purchasing any virtual X-GEAR pedal separately via the Custom Shop, or grabbing both the hardware pedal and its virtual version from the IK store.
And coming soon with the release of the hardware pedals, users will be able to save presets in AmpliTube 5 and transfer them back and forth to the physical units using the X-GEAR Librarian to bring their studio sound onstage.
For existing users, to get updated on Mac/PC, launch the IK Product Manager, go to Manage My Products, and use the Update button next to AmpliTube 5.
