Amplitube 5 - distorted audio issue

Postby hyuugacln » Thu Aug 22, 2024 3:35 pm

Hey everyone,

I think I'm running into a technical issue with Amplitube 5. Take a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UT2udkPb_RM

This the default preset of the software, yet it sounds horribly distorted. Is there some technical issue or is this just how Amplitube 5 sounds like?

Using other presets sounds similarily bad.

Thank you in advance!

Deniz

PS: I followed the official "How to set up Windows 10"-guide provided by IK Multimedia.

PPS: This is the DI track used in the video, in case someone would try it in their own copy of Amplitube: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1STezU- ... sp=sharing

I find you have to record with the input of your interface basically all the way down.

I know this sounds unorthodox, but trust me, amp sims will sound WAY better.
Took me way too long to figure this out.

I downloaded your track and loaded it into my DAW with the default Amplitube setting. Then, I used clip gain and turned the DI down -4.5db. Sounds way better that way. I think it's how it should sound.

It's mind bending that this info isn't more readily available, hot tracks really sell the amp sims short.
