Hello, everyone!
I have been playing since 1998. I once dabbled in a "laptop amplifier program recorder thingy" when I was in Iraq in 2008. I used a Native Instruments program with a little box. I thought it was pretty cool. Needless to say the little box didn't survive being shipped by in my unit's container and after that I went back to regular amps and never thought about that type of system again. I was actually looking at a Fender Mustang I v.2 amp for home recording because of the Fender Fuse software. I went through a few YouTube videos about how to use it and saw one talking about the Amplitube Fender stuff being included as well. Then I looked up Amplitube and a bell started ringing in my mind about the setup I used in Iraq. So the Amplitube Fender Collection 2 with Greg Koch video came across my YouTube suggestions and I was sold. This stuff sounds amazing! It is the perfect setup for me. I moved to a city in Poland and live in a small European style apartment so a big amp is out of the question. I was searching and searching for smaller amps that could sound cranked at lower volumes but I think this is the best solution.
Anyway, introductions aside. I am wondering which interface to get. The iRig UA says it will also work with a laptop but will the iRig HD 2 work with an Android device? I would obviously rather buy the HD 2 since it comes with Amplitube 4 but I would also like the portability of being able to use the app on my phone if I need to.
