Control AmpliTube products on stage!

IK Multimedia and AmpliTube blew open the doors of creativity in recording, and now StompIO lets you harness that power on the live stage as well. Giving you the ability to control the industry-leading amp and effects processor, StompIO offers access to thousands of amp combinations and its powerhouse of effects can be controlled without even the need of seeing the computer screen or touching the mouse. It's now possible to use extremely powerful computer-based guitar effects, both on stage or in the studio, with StompIO.

IK Multimedia StompIO at a Glance:
  • Incredibly Powerful
  • Pro Features
  • Presets Galore
  • Includes Special Enhanced Version of AmpliTube 2 and much more!

Incredibly Powerful
No other effects processor lets you fully control software live, and use it to record in the studio with the exact same pro-quality setup. With StompIO, you have the advantage of the most powerful, fully customizable, expandable and upgradeable system ever made, thanks to the "Powered by AmpliTube" modular architecture. When used with laptops or mini computers, StompIO also offers an extremely compact and mobile solution, ideal for touring and gigging guitarists. No other system on the market today gives professional players this level of convenience and flexibility without sacrificing tone or performance.

Pro Features
The StompIO has been designed with the highest standard in mind, with a Class-A DI, an all-analog, console-grade design, low-latency optimized drivers, professional controller feature-set and robust metal construction.

StompIO is the ideal stage solution for the touring pro. Downsize your complicated and failure-prone rig and stop checking batteries and cables before every single show. StompIO lets you duplicate almost any imaginable rig virtually, then control it with unparalleled freedom. StompIO allows you to switch entire rigs instantly with no pops, clicks or drop-outs, and using X-GEAR you can replace your bulky stage rig without sacrificing any of your tone.

In the studio, StompIO combines the audio-quality of a high-end audio interface (with >107dBA, the highest dynamic range in its category) with an advanced automation controller to record your entire performance without handing off your guitar, and no need for tedious automation editing. StompIO is compatible with every DAW system, with balanced outputs for traditional recording and S/PDIF output for high-quality digital recording.

Presets Galore
On stage, StompIO easily manages a staggering 4,000 presets with 5 different play modes to suit your playing style, with full editing control and the ability to create, save, and manage presets with only your feet. Take full control of your virtual gear rig with 10 on-board metal switches and 6 dynamic knobs with 2 large displays, plus to up 6 additional expression pedals or switches for monster rig control (1 expression pedal is included). Balanced and unbalanced outs let you connect the output of StompIO to an amp or house PA, and the MIDI in/out allows you to integrate traditional hardware processors for the ultimate live rig.

Includes Special Enhanced Version of AmpliTube 2 and much more!
StompIO includes an enhanced version of AmpliTube 2 that offers all the necessary functionality to control and configure the StompIO as a hardware controller both in standalone mode for live play and in plug-in mode for use with any popular sequencer in the studio. With the included AmpliTube version not only will you have full access to one of the most powerful guitar amp and effects software modelers ever, but you will also be able to associate all the hardware controllers to software parameters, associate presets to StompIO memory locations and fully control an immensely powerful combination of hardware and software.

StompIO comes fully stocked with five full software packages: AmpliTube 2, Ampeg SVX, AmpliTube Jimi Hendrix, AmpliTube Metal (only for previously registered AmpliTube 2 users) and AmpliTube XGEAR (that's over $1,200 worth of software included), totaling over 150 different highly-sought after modern and vintage gear models. The only limit to what you can do with StompIO to achieve a superior, truly unique custom tone is now your imagination.

And if this is not enough, StompIO also includes four additional bonus pieces of software: Mackie Tracktion 2.1 audio/MIDI sequencer, T-RackS EQ, SampleTank SE, and 500MB of Sonic Reality loops. These help make StompIO a complete recording, songwriting and producing environment that has no comparison on the market. That's a total of 10 products in one box, covering everything from effect processing to recording, composing and editing.

StompIO is working great for me

It has some many thing to pick from for amp sounds and effects.
I have mine running through a Boss RC-50 looper for some amazing
fun.

Stomp IO

This is a great stomp box and with all of the Amplitube modules that are included you can get any amp sound that you want. You will want to buy the Amplitube Fender module for this since it doen't com... read more [+]e with it, and Fender has the best clean sounds in amp sims period. I use my ROland VG 8 to run to the stomp box, so that I can bring in Les Paul, Strat Tele or bass to the unit. The amp sound is distinct, use it going to PA for best results. Save your presets to banks on the Stomp Io for quick live playing. The price drop is a good deal on top of everything else. close [-]

If you are recording music and you don't have this you really really need to find a new job. The StompIO is great. You have options at your fingertips are ridiculous. So many things to use and do.

Great product!

Music Background: Long time guitar/bass player
I have been an Amplitube 2 owner for a long time now, and was looking forward to the release of this product. I was very pleased to find it is everything I hoped it would be! The controller works grea... read more [+]t and is very responsive (built solid too). Amplitube X-Gear is incredibly good. It's fun to combine all the models from Amplitube 2, AmpegSVX, and Amplitube Jimi Hendrix. I am very much looking forward to Amplitube Metal when it comes out!

I play guitar and bass with a band sometimes and it's nice to have all my sound in one unit. no need for sperate units for guitar and bass.

While it seems a little pricey, the cost is justified when you add up all the software it comes with. To me this is as realistic as sound can get without actually owning the real amps.

Highly recommended! close [-]

Our Customers Say...

Ninety-five percent of everything in this studio came from Sweetwater. My Sales Engineer is a lifesaver. I started working with him around 2005, talking to him about what my vision was for the studio. He was right there all the way.
