Help me out with a like and a comment on this video, thanks folks! Primo is a really nice sounding amp sim by APFX Audio which has been available as a paid plugin on desktop for a while, and now just got released for iPad. The amp sim used neural networks (AI) to emulate the sound of a ‘boutique Italian tube amp’. I really can’t believe the iPad version is free. The reviews so far from hardcore electric guitarists who own every amp sim out are very positive, with all saying this compares well with even very expensive amp sims. In this video I walk through through the main features and give a quick review. I don’t cover everything in detail, it’s more a UI overview, but you can check out the manual linked below for more. The iPad version is an AUv3 plugin, so can be used in hosts like Garagebandm AUM, Logic Pro for iPad, etc. Primo for iPad App Store Link (free): apps.apple.com/app/primo-for-ipad/id6475413879 User Manual: drive.google.com/file/d/16tZO0zps150hioh89TVAbbslPY9ImgIe/view Desktop version (not free): apfxaudio.com/products/primo The synth app I used here for the input signal is Fundamental 2.

Thanks for introducing me to this fantastic app. Every time I watch your videos my IQ increases. Keep up the awesome work. I just turned 66 years old, and played guitar in rock bands for most of my life. About 5 years ago I just lost interest in music. Then comes along the Ipad, which opened a world of musical possibilities. I went from novice 6 months ago to creating on an average two songs a day. And I thank you and the many of the other incredible content creators who show their passion for music. Sorry for rambling, but this has had a profound effect on my life.

Adding it to my arsenal!… can’t wait to try it… thanks Gav

Thank you for the awesome video, hope you all enjoy PRIMO for iPad!

Can't wait to try. I love the feedback-like sounds when you open the distortion.

Always appreciate your tutorials. One thing this app has is feedback for sure, at least that’s all I hear. Anyone else hear any of the settings???

Nice! Many features, yet simple layout, the "dynamic control" is an interesting concept! Looking forward to give it a go.

it definitely does have the touch and feel of a prime (primo) app ... can't wait to check it out

Great share….love the rip of the distortion in the overdrive.

Unbelievable that’s a free app . It’s sounds also very well.

Yeah, was playing with it last night. The edge of break up tones are very nice, and the dynamic control feature is interesting :)

Very nice. Thank you very much for this Walkthrough!

Incredible! So good.

Ooh....gnarly!

What are the samples you are using? Great to hear something other than the typical riffing that people demo with.

Looks great - depilatory be great if you offer project files with only free software for download at your Patreon Page 🤔

still the best sounding amp sim on any platform is Amp One, also free and nobody is talking about…. and is ancient too… I have yet to find anything comparable.
