GELABS - Effects & Guitar Amps

Primo is going to for their own good these pretenders to show where they belong!

PLEASE make this app AUV3! Nobody uses IAA format plugins anymore PLEASE UPDATE THIS APP TO AUV3

Wont let me create a password, keeps giving me an error, tried to reset 3 times.

Nice sound, good models, but useless in an iOS production environment, such as AUM. No AUv3, and when loaded as IAA it’s glitchy and frequently crashes to pure digital buzz.

Im using th original irig, and I seem to be only having this problem with this app, and AmpliTube, where I hear like a static sound even if I change the latency it’s quite annoying. Can anyone help

Update 3 months later: After my glowing review below, I bought the 10$ presets. It was great until I upgraded to iOS 16 and not only did it lose my presets, I no longer exist. So I asked Apple for a refund and tried again. The app took my money and didn’t send any code for access. I wasted days trying to make this thing work. I even contacted GE Labs and got no reply. What a waste! I am so disappointed. In addition, there are latency issues that are problematic. So after giving you guys my best shot, I tried DepLike and it works perfectly with 5 Free Presets and and has a much much cleaner signal chain. August 2022 After spending a whole day evaluating free guitar sims, this is the probably the absolute best. It has a library of presets that are amazing. The catch for your purchase is the ability to store more than one of your own. That’s really not a problem because there’s so many good choices already. Give this app a try! Thank you to the developers for making something this robust for free! Wowzers!

The tones are awesome. The interface is so easy to use too. The only thing I wish it had was the ability to import 3rd party IR. I run this into my audio interface and then into Reaper and use an IR loader for more cabinet options. Just wish I could do it in the app. Otherwise this is one of my favorites.

Too bad this app is so unstable. It is like a balloon ready to pop. While the CPU load reads under 50% your device will get very hot and you can not get rid of the latency static. BEWARE if you use it with an iK iRig HD you may get blasted with deafening white noise out of nowhere. I am trying to integrate this app but it is just too unfinished and unstable. NOTE: If you engage the main output EQ your signal folds to mono. This had me chasing around for an hour trying to figure out what the problem was.

I was excited to use the apps sampling feature and upload some of my gear into my iPad and Moore X2 preamp. Sadly this feature didn’t work for no matter what I tried. I followed the diagram and nothing. Maybe there is some issue with the Arturia Minifuse 2 I use as an audio interface but there is no way to know for sure. Sadly the pedal will be returned and the app will be deleted.

Intuitive,and the tones are pretty accurate IMO. Would like to see all the effects and preamps together for a tidier appearance though. The fact that you can try before you buy basically,is great. Have it set to lowest latency,and it’s spot on . 😁5 stars.
