iRig HD X mobile interface - Ultimate Guitar experience anywhere.

iRig HD X mobile interface Overview - Ultimate Guitar experience anywhere.

Description
Representing the iRig lineup as the flagship model, the IK Multimedia iRig HD X is a compact and versatile mobile interface for guitarists and bassists. More than a simple recording device, the iRig HD X is a nucleus of creativity for players of all levels—power a live rig with the dedicated amp out or produce guitar-centric content for social media using the groundbreaking Loopback+ feature. The iRig HD X turns your iPhone, iPad or Mac/PC into a staggering collection of amplifiers and effects to be utilized for more than just average tracking scenarios, and it’s all achieved through a pocket-size apparatus weighing less than 2 oz. IK Multimedia bundles the iRig HD X with mobile and desktop versions of TONEX and their acclaimed AmpliTube software, so you’re loaded with inspiration right out of the box. The iRig HD X interface is a master key to limitless musical experiences.

Ultracompact Form, Titanic Function
Toss the IK Multimedia iRig HD X audio interface in your pocket or gig bag, and hit the studio or stage kitted out with hyper-realistic emulations of iconic amp models and effects. Connect the iRig to a mobile device or laptop, and record 24-bit/96kHz audio with its Hi-Z input and noiseless preamp; pull up TONEX or AmpliTube as plug-ins in your favorite DAW, or run them as standalone apps routed to your recording software via Loopback+. A dedicated 1/4" amp output offers connection to external amplifiers, pedalboards or FRFR speakers for direct integration into an existing live rig. It’s also easy to take matters into your own hands with the iRig HD X’s multifunction control knob—sporting an LED ring indicator, it provides fast and precise parameter adjustment, and even doubles as a tuner for the connected guitar or bass.

Discover Your Tone
The IK Multimedia iRig interface equips guitarists and bassists with two powerful means of generating sound: TONEX and AmpliTube 5. TONEX relies on AI Machine Modeling technology to emulate amps, cabinets, combos and pedals—users can access 200 Premium Tone Models from IK Multimedia, in addition to unlimited community presets from ToneNET. The expansive AmpliTube 5 app is a lauded simulator allowing guitar and bass players to build virtual rigs from the bottom up. Included with the iRig HD X is AmpliTube 5 SE, featuring 80 models of “must-have” amps, pedals, cabinets, microphones and studio rack gear. Whichever path you choose, the iRig HD X contains a multitude of tonal possibilities to help you build the ultimate virtual rig for writing, recording, jamming or playing live.

Record Content or Stream Live
Countless musicians create social media content with their art, which often includes playthroughs of original material, covers and improvisational jams. With its Loopback+ functionality, the iRig HD X can route pristine, ready-to-share guitar or bass audio to your favorite video recording or livestreaming app. Destinations may include platforms like Instagram and TikTok, where it’s possible to both prerecord content or stream it to followers live. In any situation, it’s possible to put your best tone forward with the iRig HD X, sharing the definitive sound that you’ve spent time crafting.

Stay Inspired and Reach Practice Goals Faster
A tone that inspires play is one of the best ways to stay consistent with any practice regimen, and the IK Multimedia iRig HD X offers just that. Simply load your favorite TONEX model or AmpliTube rig and launch your preferred practice app to work on exercises or routines with the same sound that makes you want to pick up the guitar in the first place. You can even jam along to your music library or streaming service for an enjoyable, engaging workout that lets you test out different tones. The iRig’s practicality turns your iPhone or iPad into a complete practice workstation to sharpen your chops, at home or on the go.
IK Multimedia sets the stage for guitar and bass players everywhere to find their unique sound without limitation. Link up to any laptop, iPhone or iPad, and unlock a universe of tone-sculpting optimization. Both TONEX and AmpliTube give users the ability to virtually chain together everything you’d find in a physical rig, right down to the mic and outboard gear you’d employ to record. Once you’ve acquired your holy grail tone, apply it to recording songs, creating content or livestreaming for everyone to hear in all its glory. Small but fierce, the IK Multimedia iRig HD X is waiting at your local Guitar Center today.

I just wanted something simple to play along with backing tracks. It's a black hole of apps; the free ones don't do what I want them to. I guess I'm just not technical enough, or my expectations were to high.
Perfect iOS interface

I bought this to connect to my iPhone. I play through Positive Grid Bias Amp/Fx 2. Latency is negligible and the volume is loud and clear through wired headphones. Perfect practice rig for guitar and bass!
Great!

I was expecting to see an expansive array of pedal choices that would include many of what most guitarists would call the standard for guitar pedal boards. Basically, none of those are available. Ibanez Tube screamer? Nope. Boss Distortion? No. Klon or any clone like it? Nah. You do get like 5 or 6 generic pedals and then you have to pay for access to the other 70 or so. The other pedal's were a random smattering of pedals that aren't widely known ( at least by me). Kinda like that second cousin twice removed that you've heard of but no one has really seen since 3rd grade. But I digress. Yes, this will allow you to connect your iphone or android to your electric guitar. But it's a pricey way to do it and not the best option out there

this product is amazing and everything I expected it to be. Using this product allowed me to grow on the TikTok platform as I was able to go live while recording a song. On the other hand, this product is very versatile because I can go into my daw and have a beautiful sound from my guitar using this product #sweepstakes
