  • Unusable - Sampling errors, noise, distortion

    Environment: Mac studio ultra, 64 gb, MacOS Ventura 13.3.1, Ampkit 2.10, Scarlett Solo guitar interface. After running for running for a few minutes, Ampkit starts generating SEVERE noise and sampling errors. If you turn off the setup (lower right) and then turn it on again, it works for a little while longer, then repeats the buggy behavior. You can't use this for anything serious. Which is a real shame -- the amps and pedals are fantastic. WAY better than Logic Pro's in fact. Changing sample ratee on the Scarlett Solo does not help. Scarlett Solo works perfectly with Logic. Developer support page fails to create support ticket; there is no support email anywhere on the website. They do not answer their press email. App was last updated four years ago. What a terrrible shame.

  • Nice app...left to die on the vine.

    Was my "go to" app for practice. Company seemed to have invested a lot of time and effort in their apps, but no updates for years. Fortunately, there are good alternatives.

    I got AmpKit about a year and a half ago, it used to work great. In the last few weeks it began locking up or crashing regularly. Now it starts up and just pinwheels forever.

  • Awful

    Used to love this app, but ever since this past update nothing is working. None of the amps or pedals are visible anymore and i cannot get anything to work other than a dry guitar signal. Very frustrating.

  • DON’t WASTE YOUR MONEY!

    None of the presets working right. Ton’s of stupid presest, wasted 40 minutes to see if there is single decent one so I can play - NO HOP My ears poped out by the time I get to the 5th set up. Constantly on the volume - everything feeds back! DELAY - you hear what you played later. This is a joke!

  • New Update Deems Ampkit Inoperable

    I used to love ampkit, until the last update. Now it crashes any time I want to make any adjustments to anything! Or it becomes completely unresponsive. It is now worthless and I can’t do a single thing without the app freezing up. There’s also this weird bug where the amp appears to move/“wobble”, for lack of a better term. Oh, and if you do get lucky enough to make any adjustment whatsoever, it won’t register for at least 5-6 seconds. Seriously, Agile Partners? Think I’ll finally bite the bullet and get Positive Grid. Don’t bother until they fix these bugs.

  • Doensn’t work

    .. in Sierra OSX. Horrible latency and crackling sounds that build from nothing until all you hear is white noise with a little guitar mixed in. The longer you keep it on and play, the worse the feedback, staticky sounds become. Within about a minute, you can’t play anything at all.

  • UI Images Need to Be Revised

    2
    By chrlswtt
    I haven’t used this app since I updated to Sierra but now all pedal and amp images are too large for the space alotted. Some knobs on pedals are not visible because they appear beyond the edge of the pedal image. What was once a very intuitive UI has become a jigsaw puzzle with missing pieces.
