The new AmpliTube 5 offers a massive increase in gear, features, and flexibility for an even more seamless and satisfying user experience, raising massively the bar of what can be expected from an amp simulator today.

What’s New in AmpliTube 5

New cabinet section with VIR™ technology

A re-engineered Cabinet section features IK’s new Volumetric Impulse Response (VIR™) technology. To deliver the highest standard of accuracy and realism, IK painstakingly measured 600 IRs per speaker of every existing and new cabinet model, for a total of 143,000 IRs. To perform this process, and for it to be of millimetric precision, IK developed a custom measurement system with dedicated robotic automation. The result is a massive, 3D array of mic placement options – each capturing the interactions between speakers, cabinet and floor – for a completely true-to-life sound that has never before been heard either in software or hardware emulation. All of this is available with a new 3D grid interface that allows users to snap the cabinet section’s movable mics to a precise IR point or seamlessly blend between multiple measurements.

Furthermore, users can now import and load their own IRs and tweak them to find the perfect match for their desired tone.

Plus AmpliTube 5 revisits all of the original AmpliTube legacy gear, adding a fresh new look, optimized internal gain structure and re-developed power amp/speaker interaction to maximize realism and tone feel.

New GUI

Both existing and new users will enjoy an all-new, now fully scalable GUI, to conveniently adapt to any display size including the latest Retina displays, featuring an updated ergonomic layout and new level of realism.

Freely configurable signal chain

Beyond mono and stereo, the new, completely customizable gear chain now supports wet-dry-wet configurations and other advanced series and parallel routing.

The overall chain has been greatly expanded to support up to 57 simultaneous models divided between stomps, racks, amps and cabs. Users can easily drag and drop any model into place from a sidebar gear browser, to build or re-order even complex rigs in seconds.

Distorted Sounds to Rattle Your Audience

Distorted sounds can be used to rattle your audience.

Distorted sounds are a type of sound design that can be used to create a sense of unease in a person’s mind. When listening to distorted sounds, people may feel disoriented and confused, which can make them feel uncomfortable.

Distorted sounds can be used in a variety of ways: they can be used as background noise in horror films, they can be used to communicate messages in advertising campaigns, or they can be used as part of an experimental musical composition.

Distorted Sounds to Rattle Your Audience
MUTILATED NOISE by SampleTraxx: The Next Generation Sound Collection 77

When using distorted sounds in your work, it is important to remember that you should use them sparingly—if you use them too much over time, you will become desensitized to their effect on your audience.

Creating Tension in Film

Imagine a suspenseful scene in a thriller or horror movie, where the protagonist is stealthily moving through a dark, dilapidated building. The tension is palpable, and the audience is on the edge of their seats. Here, you could employ the Dark Clock Loops or Mutilated Metals to create a sonic environment that’s both eerie and tension-filled. The unnerving tick-tock of the clock or the metallic creaks could heighten the suspense, hinting at the danger that lurks around every corner.

Punctuating Cinematic Moments

The Signature Hits and Cinematic Stingers are perfect for punctuating key moments in a film or trailer. For example, during a dramatic reveal or a sudden plot twist, a well-placed hit or stinger can amplify the impact of the moment, making it more memorable for the audience.

Building Atmosphere in Video Games

In video games, where immersion is paramount, the Atmospheric Field Recordings and Musical Drones can be used to create a rich, immersive environment. For instance, in a post-apocalyptic game, the distorted, haunting drones could set the tone, making players feel as if they’re truly navigating a world on the brink of collapse.

Disturbing Radio Transmissions

The Radio Frequencies and Mutilated Alarms, Signals, Horns could be used in a variety of scenarios, such as a scene where a character is tuning into a radio transmission filled with unsettling, distorted signals.
