9/10 Stars for AmpliTube Jimi Hendrix!
Songstuff.com’s review on IK’s guitar amp and FX software
“…presets are great, the quality of the sound excellent and the inclusion of tools like the speed trainer and the versatility of set up for creating your own sounds make this an ideal asset"

AmpliTube Products Proved to be a Shining Contender in EM’s Amp Software Vs. Amps Test
Amp-modeling software comes out on top in "Showdown at the Clubhouse" roundup
"In total, the panelists were able to tell the real amp from the modelers only 38.5 percent of the time."

AmpliTube Featured in Gibson's Top 5 Modeling Package
"...the combination of tone changes is almost endless"
“The truly great part of AmpliTube is that it allows you to configure two separate guitar chains in one preset. This means that you can configure a dirty sound, a clean sound, and then play them separately or at the same time."

Key Features

AmpliTube Jimi Hendrix™
Plug Into The Experience
The first authentic software recreation of the complete guitar amp and effects rig of Jimi Hendrix

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 rock music from hard rock to punk, alternative, progressive and pop.

Includes models of extremely rare and collectible vintage stomp boxes, amp heads and cabinets such as Marshall® 1959 JTM100™ Super Lead, Fender® Bassman®, Fender® Dual-Showman®, Fender® Twin Reverb®, Roger Mayer™ Axis fuzz, Mosrite™ Fuzzrite®, Arbiter® Fuzz Face®, Roger Mayer™ Octavia, and more
