v1.6 [Mar 22, 2013]
With its first major update, AmpKit Mac continues to improve as a fantastic amp and effects studio for the Mac platform. Features added in this update include sumptuous new stereo processing, new microphone placement options, sharing recordings via SoundCloud and Messages, and more!
★ Spread It Around: Stereo Support ★
AmpKit Mac now supports tweakable stereo output for many of its effect pedals, including:
➤ A unique Spread control to directly control the width of the stereo effect, available on the D-Delay, Phunk Phaser, Phase '72, Ensembly, and Lone Flanger effects pedals.
➤ Built-in stereo support for the Echology reverb, Noise Gate, Rocktron HUSH Noise Reduction, and Juicer compressor pedals.
➤ Stereo processing and output for all 16 built-in effects inside the versatile American Acoustic amplifier.
★ Expanded Microphone and Cabinet Options ★
AmpKit 1.6 introduces a new third microphone position to complement the existing on-axis and off-axis options.
➤ 'Distant' positioning places the microphone at a distance of 50cm from the cabinet, allowing for a new level of deep, rich, and ambient modeling, perfect for a range of guitar styles and techniques.
➤ Also added are new configuration options for the Trace Elliot 1x15 cabinet: 'Woofer' mode to capture just the deepest low-end of the cabinet, and 'Woofer & Horn' mode to capture both pounding low-end and crisp, clear high-end content.
★ New Sharing Options ★
With AmpKit 1.6, you now have more options for sharing your recordings. You can choose to share using the popular SoundCloud online audio service, a fantastic place to show off your sessions, or share with your friends via Messages on Mac or iOS.
