iRig UA is now shipping
The first universal guitar interface and processor for all Android devices is now available
The mobile music revolution has arrived on Android. iRig UA is the first universal guitar interface and processor that lets guitarists and bass players rock out with zero latency on their Android smartphone or tablet (running 4.2 or later, OTG USB mode). It comes with AmpliTube UA, a free companion app that works with iRig UA's built-in digital signal processor (DSP) to handle all processing off the device.
Now, for the first time ever, players can plug their guitar or bass into their Android device and rock with AmpliTube tone anywhere, anytime.
Zero latency
Speed is the name of the game when it comes to iRig UA. iRig UA’s onboard DSP provides consistent zero-latency operation independent of the make or model of your connected smartphone or tablet.
Introducing AmpliTube UA
That speed comes in handy when playing with AmpliTube UA. It's a special version of IK's guitar and bass tone studio that features a generous and expandable library of meticulously crafted virtual models of some of the most coveted gear in music history. It comes with 21 pieces of gear for free: 9 high-quality stomps, 5 amplifiers, 5 matching cabinets and 2 microphones — all the gear you need to get jaw-dropping tone that suits almost every style of music.
In other words, the combination of iRig UA and AmpliTube UA offers the plug-and-play performance that mobile musicians with Android devices crave.
Superior sound
In order to provide you with the best playing experience possible, iRig UA has been designed to deliver audiophile-grade sound. Like IK’s other high-end interfaces, it features a 24-bit A/D converter with a 44.1/48kHz sampling rate and a crystal clear low-noise instrument preamp.
This high degree of sonic fidelity comes in handy when iRig UA is plugged into a Samsung Professional Audio compatible device (with Android 5.0). It can be used as a digital audio interface with Samsung Soundcamp, a full-fledged DAW music studio app that lets musicians record and compose while on the go.
Comprehensively connectible
The combination of iRig UA and AmpliTube UA is perfect for on-the-go practice and performance. iRig UA features a 1/4” input for a guitar, bass or other line-level instrument, a micro-USB to OTG cable and an 1/8” headphone output with volume control. It also sports a 1/8” AUX input that lets musicians connect any sound source so they can jam along to their favorite tunes with the power of AmpliTube.
Pricing and availability
iRig UA is available now from music and electronics retailers worldwide, and from the Online Store, for only $/€99.99 (excluding taxes). The AmpliTube UA app is also available now as a complementary download from the Google Play store.
