New collection for AmpliTube guitar and bass tone studio offers authentic access to the gear used by rock icon Joe Satriani
IK Multimedia, in partnership with rock icon Joe Satriani, have released their newest artist signature collection, AmpliTube® Joe Satriani. Available for Mac/PC, iPhone and iPad, it offers users instant access to play, practice and record – anytime, anywhere – using precise models of the guitarist’s amps and pedals that were created with Satriani himself.
AmpliTube Joe Satriani reflects the guitarist’s reputation as a tone and gear connoisseur, featuring models of both classic and artist signature pieces, along with some fan favorites. Each model was created to Satriani’s exact specifications, for an authentic user experience.
