AmpliTube Slash for Custom Shop is a suite of Slash's signature guitar effects, amplifiers, and speaker cabinets that he uses on tour and in the studio, available in a convenient desktop app and plug-in for your DAW.
AmpliTube Slash for Custom Shop features models of all the legendary signature gear used by Slash in the studio and in his live performances. You can also find rock models of the legendary Marshall JCM Slash Edition Silver Jubilee, the Marshall AFD100, plus all of Slash’s signature guitar pedals. Also included is a massive collection of Slash guitar tone preset settings, provided as starting points for your own tone tweaking or playing along.
The AmpliTube Custom Shop is a free software package for your Mac or PC that includes a complete guitar dual signal chain, tuner, pedal boards, amplifier head, cabinet, microphone, and rack effects section. It comes with 24 pieces of included gear, and access to IK’s online virtual music store where you can purchase AmpliTube Slash gear models either a-la-carte or as a complete suite.
When used as a standalone application, the AmpliTube Custom Shop features a 4-track recorder section and a song-player feature for playing along with pre-recorded material (like Slash's new Apocalyptic Love Album). The SpeedTrainer function allows you to slow down digital audio material so you can learn the licks, note for note, without affecting the pitch. Two of the most important features that help you sound your best are also included - a digital chromatic tuner and metronome, so you'll always play in tune and in time.
