usbEffects (Guitar Effects) for Android
so far its pretty good but i just downloaded app
Tested on Galaxy s3 and nexus 10. Great support from the developers.
Can you add more slots? I need the compressor to remove hiss and I'm left with only three slots for the other pedals. Also, can you make it work in the background so I can use another app to record from the phone's mic in. I can record from the phone mic by starting the recording app and then switching to UsbEffects. Would be better if I can stay in the recording app to monitor and control.
Latency is bad! Sound is quiet! Filters suck.
Whay my fone can't use your app.???????? My fone samsung note2..pliese show me how to setting now...tq
You won't find any other app like this on the market. It originally didnt work with my Peavey XPort but the developer actually went out an purchased one to test it & help me out. The app now works flawlessly & I couldn't be happier. The developer will really help you out & responds quickly. Thanks so much for an amazing app & hands down best customer service I've ever experienced. I can't wait to support whatever else Githara Studios comes up with! Edit: lanscape is only showin half of screen on GS5 Verizon

Yes it's that good. I upgraded from guitar effects plus and got excellent customer service before I even bought anything. :-) UPDATE: I upgraded my device, and reinstalled, only to discover a serious USER malfunction. No matter, GStudios were able to sort this out as well, (by guiding me to realise that I had installed the wrong type of their software), and we are back up and running. THANK YOU for the continual expansion and now customisation.

Tech supports ok for these app.
Works great on samsung note 3 with lollipop
Just wish there were more amps.
Great app for guitar effects!
Very Effective!!Its rockin cool man!!Grab it now!!
Latest update reduces latency to the point of being unnoticeable. App is usable now, instead of work in progress. Nexus 7 (2012) with cheap Chinese Guitar Link.
worked "out of the box" for me, I had no problems at all connecting it to my Behringer Guitar USB Link UCG102. Sound is surprisingly good, and I can't wait to experiment further. Latency is acceptable; it's audible, but not irritating (the "low" setting doesn't work on my Note 2, I've got to use "medium", so it's probably even better on other phones). I'm missing one thing though: the ability to play along to backing tracks. Music played through a USB audio player (like Denon Audio) gets shut down as soon as usbEffects starts. For now I'll try to use a 2 x 3.5mm stereo male / 3.5mm stereo female adapter to connect my headphones to both (my phone's and the UCG102's) headphone jacks, and see if that works. Anyway - for 2,99 $, it's a steal, go ahead and buy it to support further development! *Edit* Great customer support - USB audio pass-through has just been added to the wish list! ;-)
A break through extending the possibilities of an Android to a facility previously only available on Apple products. The sound is good with a Galaxy s4 and a behringer guitar usb interface. The sound is ok but the design is very poor and needs a dramatic make-over: all the rack effects and controls could and should be available from the front interface - rather than through two menus. To make space the channel buttons could be about a tenth of their current size... Still 4 stars for a brave effort and looking forward to more. Best wishes
Kudos for getting a USB-input app that plays an electric guitar thru Android, really. Having said that, I've heard better tones and effects from $20 practice amps. I won't knock this app any more, but we can only hope that the developers will sell their code to an outfit like Amplitube (or maybe even Native Instruments!). I for one would wet my pants with delight if there was a Guitar Rig app for Android. Githara developers, please take note!
I play all over and this amp makes it so much easier. I like playing outside but taking my guitar, amp and pedals was holding me back. Now everything I need fits in my guitar case. Plus the devs behind this app are very helpful
Latest update helped a lot.
Tested on Galaxy s3 and nexus 10. Great support from the developers.
Very supportive customer service . I wish you could create a bass effects version. Distrortion works fine. I wish you could do dual layering effect such as distorion + clean tone so i could maintain my low end on the bass guitar while maintaining distortion on mids and highs.thanks!
Works pretty good overall, best guitar effects / amp on android can't wait to see how this improves over time but very very usable as it is
1000 % works.. One and only android guitar effects..
On my s3 I experienced some issues while getting started. Btw it works now. To whom it may concern, on s3 be careful with power saving options, remember to use the usb output instead of standard output, put latency to "high" value if you get a strange noise. I hope this app could grow up with more effects, improved quality and the standard output support, anyway it does what it is supposed to do. So it is ok. Thanks to Bruce who helped me so much!
Android has long been left in the dust in the audio department behind iOS, but this is a step in the right direction! Using a USB OTG cable and cheap $10 usb guitar cable from amazon with my Nexus 5 and I was able to play with no problem. Of course even lower latency would be awesome, but I imagine there are hardware/software limitations.
No lite version to test out so dove in for 5$. No matter what settings I use my latency is always 100+ms which sucks. Also the volume is barely audible from my speaker and even tried several external speakers and the app has no screen rotation to accommodate my kickstand phone. Very poor should be a trial version out. I hope there are some updates to fix this crap.

I have a Galaxy s5. I initially emailed the developer and asked him questions about my device and what to buy. He responded very quickly with friendly advice. Then I bought the $8 guitar interface linked in the app info and a $2 USB converter cable from Amazon. I literally plugged it all in, followed the instructions listed in the app info and it worked great on the very 1st try!! I am now playing electric guitar on my Galaxy s5 and I spent $15 ($5 app, $8 interface, $2 cable)!!! A+++ experience!
Great sound from nexus 7, USB otg adaptor and ION guitar link+. Latency needs to improve but a great app for the price
Using a hudl with a rocksmith USB cable but can't hear a sound
Great app. Thanks for making it. One feature request: Landscape mode for tablets.
Excellent app. Does exactly what it says. Dev promised me an update due to lack of volume and delivered said update. 5 stars from me
Does what it says. Great proof of concept. May I suggest a reverb for future updates? Cool app btw. Update: Wow! Thanks for adding the reverb. Keep it up guys!

Edit: Most recent update made the amp text fuzzy. No biggy!
It was nice to be able to plug my guitar to my nexus7, and had forgotten I had it installed. The new icon drew my attention, and the new ui won me over. I'm going to put away my pod2.0 cause now I can practice anywhere. Keep up the great work !!!
Does not work and pulse it charge my card two time?
I first tried the 'lite' version to see if it would work with Galaxy S3 and a Yamaha Audiogram 3. Initially I had problems but the developer was very helpful throughout the debug process. It turned out that my otg cable wasn't suitable, and I was happy to find out when a new one arrived that the app worked perfectly and I can now put great effects on my guitar! Cheers
