How much Amplitube do you get? As a standalone, it costs more than BIAB.

It's not the real retail version of Amplitude. It's a "mini" version that appears to be like the one called "Amplitude 2 Duo" which was marketed through resellers like Musicians Friend and included a pop-up that linked to the full retail upgrade. A bit of a pain




Unprocessed guitar tracks were requested in the wish list, and PGMusic delivered them. Then they went the extra mile and negotiated a free no-timeout plugin to use with the new feature.

To criticize them for not providing a better free deal is a bit like looking a gift horse in the mouth, IMO.

In an age where there are hundreds if not thousands of plugins available, the goal of software developers like PGMusic is to provide hooks and other capability to use the 3rd party tools. If a bundled version of something comes with BIAB or any other software, it's a bonus. The real feature supplied by PGMusic regarding Amplitube was the unprocessed guitar realtracks, which can be used with MANY other plugins... some of which you may already possess, some of which may be available online for free, and some of which you may decide to buy as a separate purchase. The bundled version of Amplitude gives us something to play with immediately. That's a GOOD thing... right?
