Audio & Music    AmpliTube Live 1.0.1—Demo    MacAddict 93:Software:Audio & Music:AmpliTube Live 1.0.1 demo    http://www.ikmultimedia.com    Sometimes software comes along and changes everything. Such is the case with AmpliTube Live—a complete guitar amp and effects emulator that can crank out tone just like the real deal. Just load it on your Mac, plug in your axe, and rock out through your choice of a Vox AC-30 top Boost, a Marshall JCM800, or a Fender Solid State combo amp (a loud PA system is our preferred method of assault, but headphones or a pair of cranked up speakers will do the trick, too).

Audio & Music    AmpliTube X 1.2—Demo    MacAddict 93:Software:Audio & Music:AmpliTube X 1.2 demo    http://www.ikmultimedia.com    You idolized Eric Clapton’s melodically mellow Fender tweed sound in the 70s. In the 80s, it was all about Eddie Van Halen’s screaming Marshall tone and The Edge’s unique Vox stylings, until Joe Satriani came along with his Peavey Classic. In the 90s, John Petrucci’s and Kurt Cobain’s Mesa Boogie work caught your ear. Today, all you want is a Line 6 POD. But even if you’re still playing through your cheap old Crate amp, you can have all these amps and a helluva lot more with this awesome audio plug-in (for RTAS, HTDM, VST, and AU host apps). The full package features 1,260 possible amp, preamp, and cabinet combinations that instantly gives you every tone imaginable, from crunch to clean and from vintage to modern, in your recordings, all in one box—no amp needed.
