Most of the AmpliTube Jimi Hendrix models are brand new and not included in AmpliTube 2, making the Hendrix edition a fantastic way for AmpliTube 2 users to expand the available stomps, amps, cabinets, and mics.

The Jimi Hendrix rig
Hendrix's sound is a unique mix of high volume, feedback control and a exclusive, personal usage of guitar effects which was a breakthrough for its time. By then Hendrix was one of the first guitarists to experiment with the full expressive possibilities of electronic effects, which were a fundamental part of his sound. Electronic effects were a technological novelty in the 60's with semiconductor electronics in its infancy and the very first commercially available germanium transistors introduced in the mid 50's gradually replacing tubes in the next two decades.

IK has gone the extra mile in accurately modeling all the most important components of the Hendrix rig not only using proprietary AmpliTube 2 DSM (Dynamic Saturation Modeling) technology at its best, but collecting all the original vintage stomps, amplifiers and cabinets and fine tuning the software emulations by ear with accurate craftmanship to achieve incredibly realistic modeling results. A sound that will bring you back to the Woodstock era. AmpliTube Jimi Hendrix offers the same 2 series/parallel rig structure of AmpliTube 2 and ensures a complete and flexible rig structure that can be used not only to recreate the authentic tones of popular Hendrix tunes but since the modeled gear in this product is in such high demand by guitarists, AmpliTube Jimi Hendrix is a fantastic tool for many styles of modern

Thousands of amp combinations and its powerhouse of effects can be controlled without even the need of seeing the computer screen or touching the mouse. For the first time it will be possible to use extremely powerful computer-based guitar effects, both on stage or in the studio, in the same way normal floor processors or stomps are integrated into a guitar or bass rig.

New level of integration between hardware and software together make up the best sounding, powerful and flexible guitar floor processors to date.
AmpliTube and StompIO together make up the most advanced floor processor system ever made. No other hardware unit can benefit from the huge processing power of the modern CPU of today’s Mac and PC computer systems. This allows you to achieve a higher quality sound than you typically find in traditional amp and fx modeling hardware. Plus, as AmpliTube evolves and includes more and more models of effects, amps, and cabinets, the StompIO will take advantage of these software updates and ensure a long-lasting investment that always offers the cutting edge in sound with an ever growing system. No other hardware modeling processor offers such a high degree of integration and upgradability. With the StompIO, you will be able to do things that only an advanced combination of hardware and software can offer, such as configuring any single continuous control to act on up to 4 software parameters for effect transitions never heard before.

High-end features for the most demanding guitar professional.
StompIO has been developed to offer more professional features than any other software floor controller. With 10 built-in switches and 6 external configurable pedal/switch controls, StompIO offers more control over your effects than anything else. It includes two large displays for maximum visual control, one for preset numbers and the other for parameters. The 6 rotary encoder knobs allow immediate access to any AmpliTube parameters making it as easy to use as traditional stomp box knobs and offering the flexibility of a fully configurable system. The electronic part of StompIO also offers top-class features that aren’t found anywhere else, such as a console-grade discrete class A preamp that ensures the best possible signal with any type of instrument and an audio performance comparable only to high-end systems, or lightning fast drivers that will ensure the same responsiveness as hardware gear for the most demanding guitar virtuoso. In addition, StompIO offers all the necessary connections a pro would expect such as balanced and unbalanced stereo out, direct out, digital S/PDIF out, MIDI in and out which are all conveniently accessible from the rear panel and allow the StompIO to be integrated in any kind of rig.

Easy to use, with 4,000 presets ready to go, and can be played live or fully integrated with your preferred sequencer in your studio.
Connect your guitar, your computer and speakers and start rockin’ with some of the best sounding effects on the planet! With StompIO you can play live with up to 4,000 immediately recallable presets. Multiple preset switching modes are offered to suit your needs and create settings to your taste. An unlimited number of sequences can be programmed to organize your live performances easily. The possibility to reconfigure extremely complex rigs with just one click allows you to dramatically change sound during performances like no other traditional rig. Additionally, the StompIO can be perfectly integrated within your preferred sequencer in your studio allowing you to fully control AmpliTube while recording entire guitar tracks with full automation, on the fly. Interact like you would with a traditional hardware rig, but with the advantage of non-destructive recording and full editing.
