Thanks for the share, ended up building 3 for my nephews now they can practice with headphones on my sister and brother in law are eternally grateful
Cheers buddy
That's awesome Richard! Thanks for letting me know. Hope they all enjoy your generous work. Thanks for watching and for the kind comment!
I'm new to playing guitar and I still haven't saved enough for an amp. This helped me so so much, thank you Mark ❤️
So glad I could help!
I bought my friend a Fender Mustang lt25, it's his 1st amp. Got it used for about $100 and it's amazing, especially after the last update (it's a digital modeling amp).
I wish I had something that nice when I started lol. I highly recommend you check it out before you buy something.
@@MarkZabel you should make a new video about this(and give my name credit also 😉)
Now The process, :-
1. Download Microphone Pro App:-
2. Buy a 3.5mm male to 2 female 3.55mm splitter adapter for separating Mic and Headphone.
3. Buy a 6.35mm male to 3.5mm female converter jack(₹150-200 or $3-4)
4. Connect your guitar using the 6.35mm converter and aux cable to the 3.55 Mic jack of the splitter.
7. Now all connections are done. Now open the Microphone pro app. Set sample rate to 48000hz and frame rate=240 or 480 etc.
8. Use headphone or speaker whatever you wish by connecting to the splitter.
Now Enjoy live Guitar or any other 6.35mm instrument.
No need to buy any amplifier or Usb Sound card. Your Phone is your amplifier.
Thanks. I'll try it and if I can get it to work I'll do a video ... and give you credit!
But amps are so cheap..
I have the same exact speaker in the video but it’s branded as “Soundbot”. Got it for about $30 a few years ago and it has been a pretty nice little speaker. It sounds great.
I’m actually using it now to watch UA-cam videos.
It's a great sounding speaker. I got it on a similar sale, and it was the first real speaker I bought. Unfortunately, it spoiled me. I bought a few others thinking they would sound great and they didn't! Bummed me out!
Very creative. Always great to see people creating work arounds! Cheers!
Thanks!
This is awesome. So many sounds to choose from.
Just have to resist stepping on the phone now... :)
Good call DreaDave!
Yes, definitely try to avoid stepping on the phone!
Bose speakers can be picked up at a thrift store. (The old Bose Android docking stations) The sound is amazing.
Cool solution Mark! Another solution is to purchase a Vox amPlug. It is basically a headphone amp, but would work well in this scenario. Just connect your headphones, or a cable from the amPlug to your speaker. The benefit to the Android software is that you may have quicker access to more effects.
Hey Bob! Thanks for the comment. Yes, the Vox Amplug is a great travel amp. I did another video on travel amps and I mentioned that it (the Vox Amplug) is the device I use when traveling by plane. By car I usually use the Blackstar Fly 3. But, as you mention, if you're a DIY guy or a pedal guy, this is a fun thing to do.
As an FYI, I also have a Behringer guitar interface (a recent gift), and swapping that in for the cheap soundcard eliminates almost all of the noise. It's actually really nice. I think it costs around $40. There are knock-offs, but I don't know if they're any good. The phone/pad/computer solutions are going to keep getting better.
This is freakin awesome! Didnt know you could do this. Thx for the vid!
Glad I could help!
Thanx Mark,
this is very interesting.
I used to be a guitar player, sorta twnty years ago and I was thinking to introduce my 9 y.o. son to the instrument without the need to connect my noisy CRATE amplifier... This could be a nice and cheap solution. I did not even know that you can buy a sound card that looks like an USB memory key...
Gosh, I'm getting older...
Thanks.
The sounds card method may be very noisy, so keep that in mind. Another option is a small solid state practice amp. BlackStar ID series is good. They don't sounds like the crappy small solid state amps we had. Plus, a few on board effects are nice. They run about $130 new. But this works, and you may have most of these things around the house.
Sorry, meant "noisy" ... Typo.
You don't need a Sound Card or an otg for this. Your phone already has everything built in.
@@truearmy1953 how do you connect the guitar through the phone to the speaker please?
Just bought an electric guitar Was gonna wait to buy a speaker But I think I have all those parts thank you so much
My pleasure. Thanks for watching!
This is the best hack of 2020 for me yet. The world needs more engineers like you. Thank you Mark....
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
On play store ..you don't have to install it.. just bring it up and pr
ess the you tube lesson and demo. It's fast so I use the screen recorders called rec screen recorder. You can record the video but you have to be in a quiet place.Aftwards it's saved and you can slow that down and actually put it into a video editor and repeat the hard parts. I've been using it for awhile .. I did a gospel walk-up in it and that was before all these updates. Btw it picks up the soundsndhave no latency problems so far
Another great way to do this is to simply use a headphone amp and auxiliary cable to the speaker. Search Vox headphone amplifiers on Amazon & pick the one that best suits your style. This works surprisingly well if you have a decent quality speaker. This way you only have one cable to deal with, and no latency (at least not that I can tell).
Yes. This video is really for either DIY guys, Pedal guys, and people getting acclimated to what's surely coming - live emulation with virtual amps. I've seen a few brave people using a rig like this live (of course not with the cheap sound card). Latency is quite minimal and the noise is greatly reduced by using an actual guitar interface (like Behringer).
I did another video on travel amp options and included the Vox Amplug. I have one and that's what I use when traveling by plane. Very easy. The only thing I don't like about the Amplug is the clean sound. A tiny amp like the Blackstar Fly is also a great, simple option for travel.
hey bro i had all of those adapters and was trying so hard to make my live stream audio sound good bro and here u are thanks so much your the ebst
Dancehall Gamer Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!
"portable and inexpensive..." That's two watchwords. But COOL!!
That's you with no hair, I saw this video yesrs ago before you went more viral. great video as usual and really helpful.
Thank you!
You can reduce the noise by using mono line and 1/4 to 1/8 jack instead of the stereo ones u used ..
Helpful. Thanks!
That's exactly what I wanted to suggest but wanted to check in the comments first if somebody already pointed that out. The stereo jet's the main source of the noise.
@@thanoo1924are you talking about the line and jack that goes to the guitar?
Good job. I can even hear some of that 335 mojo!
Thanks!
I love that show..it's important to handy or rich..handy. Don't matter how rich you are if your car is broke down and you have all those fancy tools and don't know how to get the car tire changed.. Wasn't that a Public TV show?..
Yes, it's from Canada, but in the US it ran on PBS for a while.
Thanks Mark! Exactly what I was looking for to plug my traveller guitar into my phone and from there to a speaker. Excellent tutorial
Thanks! Have fun with it!
Good video. Just picking up the guitar again after not touching it for years, and I need a cheap amp solution. This looks like it will be perfect for me. After a few months if I still am into it I can upgrade to a more expensive rig.
Best of luck getting back into guitar. Have fun with it!
Yeah..I actually did a Herbie Hancock Hancock lick very slow that was on the Maiden Voyage Album.. It started a with a descending Gmin lick.. I hadn't done it in a while, tried it the other day.. did it perfect or close.
Cool!! I would have never even thought about doing this.
Thanks for watching!
I'm going to hook it up to my van and use the speakers there.
Cool!
Hey Mark, great video...
Will be sure to try this as a fun project asap.
Stay well now....
Thanks Nino. Yes, it's fun!
I would add the sound card as a prerequisite to the list of things you need along with guitar and android.
"...all you need is your guitar and and android device. We are gonna build the rest."
ace88205 I included the sound card in the build. It's in the list of items you'll need.
Great idea for a slim, portable rig, thanks!
You bet. Thanks for watching!
Sweeeeet, agent 007, ooops, I mean Mark ;-) .... thanks for that. i also liked the jazzy chords near the end
Thanks agent David!
Amazing vid. Thanks mate!!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
@@MarkZabel hey man you don't even need a Sound Card or OTG adapter for it. Ask me why , or you yourself guess the idea..
@@truearmy1953 No thanks. You can describe it exactly if you wish.
thats really neat Mark, thanks!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you great helpful vid. Not sure the last time I got to play my guitar on a plane but hey... Rockstar life for us!
LOL! Hey, I did an update in this using a guitar link rather than a cheap sound card. Huge difference in the noise, so you might want to check it out. Thanks for watching!
Ok.. I can help with maestro.. I am new to notate. I am just starting Band in the box. Working on some Bebop licks which I find very challenging. Charlie Parker's Donna Lee is time consuming on both guitar and Piano.
Ha ha! You're starting with an easy tune, eh? Donna Lee is most challenging!
Thanks for the demo. The sound is a little thin though... Think I'll stick to my Marshall stack.
I mean micro-stack :))) Costs around 30-40 bucks, sounds pretty good and even has a belt buckle ;-)
AND you can still use your phone to answer calls \m/
Sure thing. I don't know though. I've used the Marshall micro stack before - it's fun. If you're going the micro amp route I would go with the Blackstar fly. True, there's no belt buckle, but the sound is much better IMHO. It will run you $60 or so. Lots of demos on UA-cam and several comparisons. All the micro amps are kind of thin sounding if you ask me. But they're great for travel and tooling around the house, bothering the kids and such! :)
The iPad/mobile phone method is a whole different animal. The sound is largely dependent upon the speakers you hook up. Whether it makes sense to you mostly depends on how much into pedals you are. If you're into pedals and amp/cab models (which I'm not really), the options are pretty amazing and cheap. I've heard some people gig with them, though I personally think that's pushing it a bit far.
Funnily enough only yesterday I was contemplating modding this piece of kit. Sawing off the head and relocating the power/headphone jack card. The 9v battery *just* fits in behind the controls/above the amp components. A project for another day.
can you play a bass through these?
Paul Mcatear You'd blow up the speaker…
It really works 😮
Can you pls tell me how you made it work
And how is the latency
thank you sir.
My pleasure. Thanks for watching!
Can I get heavy metal like distorted sound from it
Yes. They have various effects for purchase ... quite inexpensive.
What do you think? I see guys dropping 1k-3k$ and still not satisfied with their sound. Do you you honestly think your going to get Hettsfeilds rythem sound out of a half ass developed free app thru a phone, which has never priced a ring tone that didn't sound cheesy? Cmon, get in the real bruh. You can get a sound that mimics an amp, just don't expect much and you won't be disappointed...
@@idathincsoo7837 Idiot !
@@idathincsoo7837 you obviously a shit player.
Sound is barely audible and VERY distorted. Any ideas on a fix? Sound card is a Kotion each 2.0 otherwise everything is the components from the description.
Hmm. If the sound is badly distorted it could be the speaker you're using. If it's more "noisy" than "distorted" you can get much better results by using a different interface. I use the Behringer Guitar Link now, but there are knock-offs that are cheaper too. Here's a video where I compare the two interfaces. (Behringer vs. Cheap Soundcard) ua-cam.com/video/UeRpSO0Bd-4/v-deo.html
It's crazy I found all that stuff in my shelves, but I don't have a guitar 😅
The only problem with this on a plane is that if the check your bags and see this contraption you will probably be arrested thinking you are a bomb maker.
Hmm. Didn't think of that. The sound card looks a little funny. The rest of the stuff is pretty standard though.
BUD XVIII Hahahaha yeah kinda looks like a c4 hahaha
Ha ha..I was thinking along those lines.. but judge I was just making a a hack that I saw on you tube.. the guy said to put four wires together..the alarm clock and relay we're my idea., so Id get up in time to practice my guitar. I guess the bands going to miss me for awhile.
What do folks do to charge their phones while using this setup? Would you maybe use a wireless charging pad simultaneously?
Great question. I didn't ever do it. But for a long night you'd probably want to recharge the phone.
I don't really have money to buy an amplifier. Thank you so much
Happy to help!
Interesting but for portability and a great sound why not just get a blackstar fly 3. Thanks
Funny you should mention that. I have a video coming soon about options for travel amps and the Blackstar Fly 3 is one of the two options I most recommend.
This is a little more complex, but also more flexible and versatile. It's also a bit more portable. I can fit my phone on a plane easily along with my headphones. Still, love the Blackstar Fly.
Play video Mark Sanchez I was under the assumption though that you could use to play with just an OTG cord from your guitar without all the other stuff and I guess it wasn't you then be able to run a speaker out your headphone jack if I'm wrong on this someone please correct me and if there are any typos please forgive me I'm legally blind as usual the beginning got all messed up great video mark thank you
Hi Robert. I'm sure you can buy a guitar link that would eliminate the sound card and probably one of the adapters. But I think you would still need a USB/OTG chord to give the phone a USB input. And you would still need the chords to hook up the external speaker. So it might help a little I suppose. Thanks for watching!
I can change the stereo ? home stereo not portable speaker ? thank you sir for the answer its for our bond ministry thank you sir I hope you see my question.
It probably will work, but there's no guarantee. Give it a try!
If i use a powerbank just as a source of power supply to the usb will it be functional ? As an amp
I don't think so. The deplike+android phone takes the sound from the guitar, do the distortion/effects in the app, and then outputs the sound to the speaker. The phone is essential.
I am starting to lean toward this approach as well and I'm very close to start gigging using an Android tablet, an iRig Pro, and a guitar. The only thing missing here is only a pedalboard for Android. I switch FXs on and off a lot, do you maybe know if a pedalboard for Android exist? I know the Apple guys have that iRig Blueboard but it doesn't work on Android.
I don't know. I'll look into it though.
Mark Zabel you mentioned that both iRig1&2 only supports ios and *SOME* samsung, I wonder which unit/model
Go get a real musical instrument and don't worry about it. Try a zoom multi-effects unit. They're small, sound great, and cheaper than a phone capable of running this wannabe software. Less than 200$ used and you can run with the big dogs... But you're gonna need an amp at some point. Try that first.
@@idathincsoo7837fucking your a prick. This is a fun little project not meant for gigs or touring.
Just the way MacGyver did it!
LOL!
Really useful video Mark. How is the latency with this rig ? A similar setup on my quad-core 3.0GHz PC with 4GB RAM, with AmpliTube or GuitarRig, is unacceptably high.
It's pretty good. There's a tiny amount of latency. I'm not convinced I will gig with it, but in the hotel room ... it's fine.
I just read the last part..My guess is that a drum track could be imported in to the files.. Even if it was not native to BITB.. Maestro is worth looking into. I'll probably play around with it today. I use a phone version but there may be a computer version.
Thank you!! This is awesome!
Glad you like it!
indeed portable and inexpensive thank you Mark. I guess hype speaker is available online? am a Fillipino of Mindanao where our President resides. By the way that speaker is an AC-DC power?
Hi Ray. Thanks for watching. That speaker is no longer made. However, the Oontz is pretty good and they're usually cheaper and last longer on a charge. Here's a link ... you may need a different one, but this should get you started. amzn.to/39H5ppT.
Awesome! Thanks, I think you just gave me the missing link. Been looking for a battery/usb powered audio interface solution for Android to have a completely mobile amp/recording setup that attaches to my guitar & gives me complete freedom to walk around & record with no wires/cables attached. Very few reliable options for sale, practically nothing. Guitar Link as you show in your other video is a good option, however, I want 2 track live recording with guitar on 1 track & vocals on 2nd track. I thought of the same idea you show here, using a usb sound card, but adding a left/right y cable splitter to the input - plug guitar into 1 side & 1/8" lavalier mic into other side. Record guitar to left channel & vocals to right channel (I realized by your video I could plug the guitar to the sound card using that 1/4" to 1/8" adapter.) Rather than a cheap sound card, for $20 theres the Creative Soundblaster Play 3. I ordered it and am waiting. This should give much cleaner sound since it's 24 bit. I didn't know I could free download Deplike or Tonebridge for guitar effects. That means I won't even have to use my Boss Micro Br to plug in guitar & get effects, just the souncard, usb adapter & phone. The final piece to the puzzle will be the DAW, I'm using n-Track 9. Question is will the guitar effects run through the DAW, & without latency issues ? I am awaiting the soundcard & USB OTG adapter. If it actually works & without glitches it will be amazing. There is really nothing out there on the market that can do this reliably. Even the IRig devices seem to be a flop on Androids.
Hey, thanks!! Yes, you'll definitely want a better sound card. Android devices just weren't made with sound in mind the way iPhones were. So going through the phone jack always sounds horrible - if it works at all.
Deplike may charge for additional effects, so be aware of that. Best of luck!!
@@MarkZabel Found that Deplike doesn't have recording capability. The DAW nTrack 9 does have some built in effects, but it doesn't seem other effects apps can be used like a plug in. For Android recording apps options are very limited. N-Track 9 seems to be best but still alot of users have latency & timing problems even with sound cards or audio interfaces. An Android phone just doesn't really have the required computing power it seems. The potential is there for professional multitrack recording on an Android Phone but the technology is not quite there yet. I have thoroughly researched all the devices & apps. IOS seems more evolved but even on Apple phones it seems there are still issues. I look forward to the day when I can have a flawless full on recording studio with amps & effects all in my pocket.
Mark Zabel I have iPhone so will it sound good
@@sojansunar5738 Why not just use the iRig instead? So much easier if you have an iPhone.
Mark Zabel iRig ???!
Found the video. I uninstalled the Maestro and installed it. Scrolled down..I am using a small phone. The video cam on from you tube. I think it is unlisted.. Anyways this is the most fantastic app I've seen.. I rated it before very high .. but It is a 9.5 or more. Sounds are realistic. I will master this app. Also they are good about improving the app. I suggested essentially layering notes inside triplets ..I did not use the word layering but it's the same. I was hoping they had done it and they did. Oh it's free of charge on playstore. I assume the same on on IOS. I am planning to use this as both bluetooth and click track in certain situations.
I've never heard of it. I'll give it a try sometime. Sounds great!
The speaker you have there is active. Why not plug your guitar into it without the sound card and spare your phone battery?
I you want it totally clean that works.
@@MarkZabel I get it. You've used the soundcard as an overdrive, with the phone as its power supply. Clever.
Can i use headphones with this? Instead of plugging in a aux cable to sound card, can i just plug in headphones?
Yes you can!
Thank you sir! So helpful. Instead of aux cable, can we use bluetooth speaker/earphone?
Possibly. When I made the video I tried a few but they added latency.
Very cool my friend, is it possible to use the phone speaker instead of a portable speaker? I know the sound will probably suck, but just by curiosity....
I'm not sure how to do it, but it probably is doable. I tried the obvious things, but they didn't work for me.
I was thinking of using the phone as the mic. it want be very loud and the quality might not be great.. alternately .. I have a ancient Dictaphone mic that I can experiment with the wiring. I do know that the Android phone is capable of being an input.
I guess I'm not understanding your question then. Sorry.
Thank you sir it worked 👍👍
I'm wondering if you could use the Bluetooth connection from the phone to a Bluetooth speaker. That way the only cable would be from the guitar to the interface. Regardless I really enjoyed your playing. Thanks.
Thanks. This is an older video, so perhaps it's possible today. The issue was (and maybe is) the latency the bluetooth device(s) adds is not acceptable.
Thanks for the reply Mark. I know it's an older video but I think the idea is really good. I'm going to try it with Bluetooth I'll let you know how it works.
@@stebbarry9395 Awesome! Thanks!
I imagine blue tooth speaker would work as well?
I think not with this setup. I think you would need a sound card that is bluetooth enabled.
Please suggest a sound card that would work with the suggested application . The one that you have given in description are out of stock now.

I believe that would work. Give it a shot!
Beautiful channel
Thanks!
Hey Mark, yo this amazing!!! What app are you using on the phone Amplitube?
No, it's called "Deplike." Check the link in the description for details.
For not much more money I picked u up a Blackstar Fly guitar amplifier.
That's a great option too! This is a different animal though, and if you're into amp modeling and maybe even thinking about using your phone to plug into a PA system and so forth, this is a nice little foray into it. Blackstar, however, is the first company to really get close enough to the tube amp sound. I love their ID Core amps. Incredible actually. I have a couple of Blackstar solid state amps and I use them almost exclusively now.
you just got your self a new subscriber LOL
Dancehall Gamer Awesome! Thanks!!
Bet it sucks your phone battery down pretty quick?? Awesome though!
Yeah, you're right. it drains it fairly fast.
Hi Mark. Great setup. Thanks for sharing :-)
Do you have any experience with recording what you play, with this setup ? As far as I can see, Deplike cannot record.
Thanks Peter. I haven't done any real recording with it - just an omnidirectional condenser mic in an open room.
hey Mark its a cool idea, can i use this concept in my active bass guitar? and will it work if i use my headset instead of a speaker?
Yes to both questions! Having said that, I have found the Behringer Guitar Link to be a *HUGE* improvement over the cheap soundcard. It costs a bit, but works much better. Here's a demo/comparison video for you. ua-cam.com/video/UeRpSO0Bd-4/v-deo.html
1 Thing to be weary about is that some soundcards heat up pretty fast
True. Thanks.
Thanks for this. Can you minimize Deplike and play along simultaneously with music via an mp3 playing app or something like Pandora, Spotify, etc.?
I'm not sure of that, but ... In Deplike there is a facility for doing it directly in the latest version.
I plug in and play on every plane trip I take.
great video very useful...one question sir..will u recommend a soundcard or a audio splitter..like 2 aux out which connect to the headphone jack of mobile phone
I would go with the sound card instead of the splitter ... mostly because I know it works well.
Hey mark is't possible to work if the speaker connect as a bluetooth instead of hooking it with 3.5mm jack
No, not with this setup. You'd need an interface that has a bluetooth output. (Or buy an adapter that converts the signal). There's probably a sound card that would work ... one that has a bluetooth output instead of a headphone output.
Have you tried just playing it through your phone speaker. One of the Irig units I seen with an apple phone let you play right out of your phone speaker.
Never tried it. Yes, with iPhones you have more options, including iRig. Most Android's don't have that capability.
Mark Zabel I did try an irig 2 with my android and it worked but i was hoping to play through my phone speakers. The android version is expensive so I will be trying something similar to what you have done. Thanks for the video.
Can you also play mp3's on your phone simultaneously?
Yes, I have been able to do so. BTW, I have found HUGE differences using a better audio interface instead of the cheap sound card. Here's the video with updated links: ua-cam.com/video/UeRpSO0Bd-4/v-deo.html
Mark Hi!!! can you play and generarte a mp3 track on the android phone, Whit this adapter? You know the irig ti Apple.
Excuse mi English, un italiano and live un Argentina. Please y need this amp adapter!!
I did everything exactly as in the video but for some reason my soundcard is not turned and I don´t know what to do
marco andrias merila Hi. Try a couple if simple things first. 1) Try switching the outputs from your soundcard. 2) Try testing your soundcard ... plug into another device and directly into the speaker.
If those don't work, it may be one of the other components, like the cables. Finally, it's possible your phone isn't supported by Deplike.
Thank you for answering my comment. Sadly I just found out that my smartphone doesn´t support the soundcard so thats why it doesn´t work
That sucks. Sorry about that.
Can I use a Focusrite Scarlett Solo in place of the sound card?
Never tried it, but it should work fine. I've used another audio interface and it's good ... much better sound quality!
That speaker thingy beside your phone, it's not very necessary, right?
Link for the sound card is not working please çan write the name of that sound card you showed in video

@@MarkZabel thanks🙏
Can we try this for semi acoustic guitar?
Yes, as long as you've got a pickup it will work.
Thanks.. 👍😊
My pleasure. Thanks for watching!
Wonderful! Thanks Mark. I have a small powered Sony Bluetooth speaker. Do you know if the Bluetooth output on my most android phones will work just as well as the wired speaker?
Unfortunately, the phone's bluetooth doesn't work directly while using the sound card. You would need to buy either a soundcard that transmits bluetooth or buy a bluetooth transmitter to plug into the soundcard. The transmitter costs an additional $25 or so.
Of course, you could plug in your bluetooth speaker and not use the bluetooth capability of it. As long as your speaker has a 3.5mm input jack you're set. Not perfect, but it works.
OK. Thanks
Thank you!

Hi. I am starting to learn guitar. Is there a way perhaps using this method to connect my headphones to practice silently as i practice during night time. If so how do i go about about it as in where do i connect in the headphone and in which slot. Thanks.
Yes. Just go directly to headphones instead of the speaker. If you have 3.5 mm headphones (like earbuds for a phone) it will just work. If you have a 1/4" input for your headphones you'll need a 3.5mm to 1/4" adapter. Good luck!
@@MarkZabel Big Thanks
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
All you need is the cord and adapter for iPhone because of garage band
This isn't advocating that you buy an Android phone. It's for people who already have one - not an iPhone.
Thanks again Bro! U DA MAN! Rick
Thanks Rick!
Finally found it.. thanks for this vid master, can I use the irig instead of the sound card?
Hi John. Yes ... maybe. I understand the new iRig allows USB connection. If so, that could work (I say *could*, because I've heard latency is a big issue). The old iRig used the output from the phone jack. There's an outside possibility even that will work on a couple of Android phones (Samsung), but in my experience the latency makes it unusable. Can't hurt to give it a try though!
@@MarkZabel thanks ... Your a great help, keep what's your doing mark
Have you looked into Irealpro.. I just did Fly to the moon using a Strat copy and a karaoke machine for an amp. It sound pretty good to have not been done in a studio.
mMy wife was about to throw out a bunch of DVDs and CDs... I kept about half.. One was band in the box. That will get loaded tomorrow first thing. I used it years ago but I've forgot how to use It. you didn't happen to to do a video on it did You?
I have iRealPro. I use that for practicing jazz mostly. I also have BIAB, but I'm not adept at it. There are decent tutorials out there, but it's probably best to pay for an online class. The issue with BIAB is that the RealTracks and RealDrums cost REAL MONEY. I ain't cheap if you want anywhere near the full capability of it.
Thanks for the super idea.
Do we have to purchase the app?
@@MarkZabel thank u bro
top idea!
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi thanks. Is there a Wah and any metal effects?
Good question. There is a wah and several high gain amps and metal distortion pedals ... BUT ... not for free. I think they are modestly priced.
without blowing out the speaker and guitar
Indeed.
