Tonebridge Guitar Effects for Negative User Reviews
✓ UselessThis app is useless now ever since iOS 16 the guitar interface doesn’t work on iPhone anymore. It’s only available for download to create confusion.Version: 2.3.12
✓ Great app but has issues since ios16The app is great, it’s free and easy to use However ever since the ios16 update any guitar audio crackles. I’ve tried everything to get rid of it, different guitar, different cables, different headphones. This does not happen on other amp sim apps I’ve tried so it must be software related. It’s a shame because this was what I used daily to practice. Once the issues are fixed the app will be great again..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Not working after iOS16 updateOne of my favourite apps before the latest iOS16 updates. Now Tonebridge no longer connects to my guitar which is a huge bummer In need of an update ASAP to make it compatible / work again (please!).Version: 2.3.8
✓ Fix IOS 16 and IPhone 14 pro max issuePurchased the new phone and after hooking up my guitar like I always do to practice I was getting no sound coming through the amp. I use your app to use Tonebridge and play along backing tracks and I have completely lost the ability to do that with the new phone. Made sure there were no connectivity issues as I was getting sound when I didn’t run it through Tonebridge but when I put the tone on I get nothing. Please fix asap I love you guys!.Version: 2.3.8
✓ Its good but can be informativeIts really nice that you can get a specific song sound. But whats really important is if a guitarist can know which kind of effects were used (just a hint) without breaking any patent law or something. So if you are inspired by the sound, you can try and set up a similar sound for yourself..Version: 1.1
✓ Not HappeningRecently upgraded to iPhone 7 plus, since doing this app is not working and just freezes constantly even after reinstalling app repeatedly 😖.Version: 1.6
✓ IAA and Audiobus a no go!Great sounding App! Now, if it would just work with Any of my DAWS! I own 7 different ones and so far it won’t work with any of them. In Cubasis the Demo Samples actually Record but me Playing into it does not? I can see no-one addressing this matter or even concerned on the Internet. It sounds Great, but I want to Record with it. Please Fix, or tell what I’m doing wrong. Also does not work with Audiobus. It needs to be an Instrument, not an Effect, I think that might have something to do with it. It shows up but does not connect. I’ve been trying for days now..Version: 2.3.3
✓ No Longer Working CorrectlyEver since I updated to iOS 16 once I’ve plugged in the app forever crackles and no effects work. I upgraded iPhones to see if it would fix but nope does not work on either iphone14 or 12. I have found out unplugging and replugging my phone once or a few times will makes the effects work but it didn’t fix the crackling nor have I ever found a solution after many troubleshooting attempts. I’ll leave 3 stars because it’s a great app that’s free but this many months in this unusable state without any fixes drops what would be 4-5 stars..Version: 2.3.10
✓ IOS 16 - sound issuesI just updated to iOS 16 and am having terrible issues with the sound. Really bad crackling sound. I adjusted noise gate but that had no effect on the crackling. I use another guitar effects app and it’s fine after updating to iOS 16. What to do about Tonebridge?? I updated the Tonebridge app too but that didn’t help either. The app is unusable with the crackling sound. Definitely an iOS 16 problem. I used iOS 15 on a friend’s iPad with Tonebridge , no crackling. I shouldn’t have updated to 16… Oh well, I’ll have to put up with the crackling until a solution is provided.Version: 2.3.9
✓ I hate itWhenever I use this god damn app it destroys my eardrums. The second I plug my guitar into my phone and select a pedal and try to play I hear nothing but an ear piercing screech. I’ve installed and reinstalled the app countless times but I’ve had enough of it..Version: 2.3.4
✓ Doesn’t workI bought a Laney amp which specifically have a LSI socket, however when I plug the amp to iPad the guitar is silent. Tried to connect the guitar with an audio interface, still has no sound. Ironically the app shows the guitar is connected..Version: 2.3.10
✓ Waste of time!Every time I open this app, 95% of the time I can’t use it as it says I need a premium account )which I have). The other 5% of the time I can’t get the songs to play as it says it is restricted in my country and adjust explicit settings. I don’t have any restrictions on my devices and all songs are in my apply library. Go elsewhere!.Version: 2.3.12
✓ Incompatible with iOS16Guitar doesn't connect after upgrading to iOS16. Friend's phone with older iOS works..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Not a fanDoesn't work on my phone anymore. For some reason I have to stay in the app in order to use it. Also it needs more bass tones. Many of the tones aren't accurate.Version: 1.8.1
✓ Needs update for ios16No audio on ios16. Can you guys sort this please!!.Version: 2.3.8
✓ Stopped workingUsing my irig hd no sound now.Version: 2.3.8
✓ No longer working IOS16IOS16 update seems to have broken the App. Can no longer get audio..Version: 2.3.8
✓ It was great until the last big updateI’ve been using Tonebridge ever since it came out. I fell in love with it, using it for both my bass and electric guitar. Ever since the last major update, all the presets have LOTS of bass added to them. It’s almost impossible to play my electric guitar with it anymore because of this issue. I hope it gets fixed soon, because I would be glad to use this properly once more..Version: 2.0
✓ You ruined it!Completely disabled the app unless you pay for it! Why?!? I’ve been using this app religiously for years and was a massive fan. Bad move guys :(.Version: 2.3.8
✓ Odd misfiresI couldn’t find a way to ask a question of the developer, so it goes in my review. Generally, I’ve liked this app; getting at least a reasonable approximation of the tone for a song with a single selection saves lots of fiddling with pedal and amp settings for actual practice time. BUT, I’ve had a couple of instances where I want to play along with the song, which I have in my iTunes library, and the app says it’s not there. Also, lately the guitar sounds much sharper and harsher through the app than it used to; maybe my imagination, but thought I’d mention it. At the start, there were times where I might have considered using Tonebridge to play “for real”, but lately the output hasn’t sounded as full as it used to. At least, to me..Version: 2.3.6
✓ Broken authLast update broke my account - can’t use sign in with apple.Version: 2.3.8
✓ ***2/10*** Not a huge fanIt’s not a bad app if you wanna try out some different tones but if you wanna jam along to some songs via headphones (like me) then I suggest an actual amp. I’ve always had trouble playing along to my band tracks and using this at the same time. Regardless of the noise gate level I always get horrible feedback. Plus I’ve had times where I think I’m playing along to a song really well only to find that the effect has turned itself down. I if change this in a pedal’s settings then the feedback is a lot worse. Sorry guys!.Version: 2.3.6
✓ IOS 16 broke appDoes not work since update to iOS16. Tested with other devices in house still running iOS15 with no issues.Version: 2.3.8
✓ (Y)It's pretty good but you need to buy a irig to use it.Version: 1.1.2
✓ Tone bridge was working on my tabs but all of a sudden has stopped, don’t know what’s wrongDon’t know what to do to fix it.Version: 2.3.4
✓ Cool app, garbage presets, bad purchaseUnless you want to waste all your practice time mucking through song after song that has 2 chords and sounds nothing like what you want to play. Stay way away. Select a Neil Young Song, you get the Beatles. Select 10 other songs and they are the same 3 chords with the same setting. Yes, the top 20 guitar songs are fairly good, some great. But 90% of the sample amp patches are garbage chords with nothing even remotely close to original sound. Unless you just want to create your own, which it does well, or want a very limited number of accurate patches, pass this by. Developers- go through the stacks of uploaded garbage and delete the crap. Check an upload before posting, or add a report garbage option that is actually monitored, and I’ll gladly give this app the 5 stars it probably deserves. But right now it’s just a frustrating time drain. You can only play Smoke on the Water or Sweet Child of Mine so many times. Total crapshoot beyond that. Even trying to listen to the original song data base is messed up. Neil Young gave me CCR. Clapton gave me Metallica. Lot of holes to ‘patch’. You got my money on a promise that wasn’t real. I’ll reload it whenever I see an update, but as of now, I’ll make space for BiasFX for a test..Version: 2.3.6
✓ Doesn’t support 2nd input on my audio interfaceUseless to me. I need to plug my guitar into input 2 of my Focusrite, but the app provides no way to select inputs. Google shows others have reported the same problem. Developer said would be in a future release, but if it’s there, I certainly couldn’t find it. Too bad…seems to be a good app crippled by a trivial feature that similar apps support as a matter of course..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Way too much feedbackNo matter what combination of headphones or speaker or guitar cables or guitars I try I always get an unplayable amount of feedback when I am not hitting a note. I am using an iRig original and have no problems with it in other apps like garage band or amplitube. The tones sound great but the amount of feedback makes it unusable.Version: 1.0.1
✓ 2023 BRILLIANT UNTIL RECENTLYI love this prog, its awesome, the presets are programmable , However this last year ( i dont know if its due to a few new ios updates on my present ipad ) But this programme keeps crashing , in Cubasis three and using either audio bus 2 or 3 it simply doesnt want to work, and crashes allthe time, or simply crashes cubasis I have run it at its bare minimum, it, a guitar an cubasis , with similar results Can anyone reply, preferably fix what is a fab prog for multiple guitar sounds Id give you the full five stars, but the user experience of late is semi awful and ruins a recording experience when it simply bails out partway through Usually when youve just perfected how you want to play something, or your time i# short You end up having to totally reload, reboot ipad, audiobus, Cubasis, etc etc Its very annoying.Version: 2.3.12
✓ Nice having effects for practiceNice having the guitar effects and rigs for practice set up. Glad that the app is free for users to share rig set ups with other users and not try to profit off user to user content. My main complaint however is Tabs and Tonebridge don’t work together like they used to. If I have a song selected in Tonebridge and hit “open tabs”, nothing happens. My iPad or iPhone just open “Tabs” and everything just stays on whatever screen I was already on in “Tabs” when it used to open the tabs for whatever pedal I selected in “Tonebridge”. The same goes for “Tabs”. If in the Tabs app, I hit “Tonebridge” which is an option on the Official tab of a song, I get a small screen within the app that shows most of what “Tonebridge” will show yet nothing happens. Effects don’t change at all in “Tonebridge” and I have to change effects manually by opening “Tonebridge” and search and select that pedal for the song manually. In short, the two apps don’t communicate with each other at all. For “Tabs”, I’m paying for the Pro and Official tabs annually so I feel this small feature should work seamlessly..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Don’t guilt meI would have not even written this review but I just had to say something. I love this app and would have given it 5 stars but here’s the reason why I didn’t. I don’t need a push notification assuming that I haven’t played my guitar in a while and that I should just dust it off and play it a bit. I play my guitar every day. I just “choose” not to use your app to play through it. I think your AI/ML team and developers may need to rethink this..Version: 2.3.8
✓ App lost all my favouritesI spent over a year collating favourites. Try to log in today and they have all vanished. Used to work seemlessly with GuitarTabs app but no more. Extremely difficult to contact as no details provided anywhere..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Still buggedFixed the iOS 16 bug but there is still a constant buzzing sound everytime you play through the app that wasn’t there before kind of a bummer :(.Version: 2.3.9
✓ Don’t like auto sound adjustmentIt’s a great app although I’m constantly fighting the volume to keep my sound up. When I’m trying to play the volume just goes down by itself and I cannot hear myself and the sound guy constantly has to increase gain, and I have to constantly re increase volume. This is pretty disheartening as I enjoy the app but this volume issue is almost a deal breaker. Please make it atleast an option in settings to disable auto volume control..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Customizers bewareWhile this app has some great tones and flexibility, it is severely lacking in support and user experience. For anyone that uses this app on more than one device, pedalboards will sync using your UG account, but any customizations you’ve done to any presets on said boards WILL NOT. Secondly, “workshop” pedals do not sync across devices at all. What?!?! Third, you can’t put workshop pedals on a pedalboard. Again, mind = blown. Fourth, there are a bunch of really AWFUL presets that have been published. People with terrible ears get to a tone and publish it first and the rest of us are stuck with yuck. Often it’s not just bad sounding, it’s not even close to the right gear. When someone is a known Marshall user, bad-ears-guy puts a Pevey on it because he thinks it sounds right. Umm. No. All of this combines to make truly awful user experience. Attempting to put even the right gear on an already-published preset results in a “friendly” message saying, “hey, someone already published that tone. How about you do one that isn’t? K, thx.” Again, ummm... NO! We should be able to submit “better” versions. At the very least, being able to use workshop presets on pedalboards is a must-have. Otherwise, I might as well not use this app. And that’s a huge shame, because it’s otherwise fairly intuitive and easy to use. Devs. Read and learn..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Phenomenal free appI would give it 5 stars if I got an answer from their support. I know it’s free but…….I’m a wannabe guitarist having invested a few hundred $$$ in name brand effects processors. Then I found this app. Having gone thru a small number of the presets the patches I’ve tried sound amazing. Tones for the guitar are what I look for to inspire me and I’ve found more here than in the hardware that I’ve purchased. Very enjoyable app and that it’s free. Great job on some great sounding presets. It’s supposed to work on the Mac as an AU but I can’t get it to work. My only complaint..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Horrible latencyTried with an old iRig and a new Line 6 SonicPortVX (both of which I get no latency issues when running Bias) on an iPhone 6S, no other apps running. If you like playing fast, this is NOT the app for you..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Worst thing you can do is downloading this appDownloaded the app for use it on my new Laney Mini Amp and not only the app doesn’t work properly but when it does... omg!! 8 on 10 songs sound all the same and the rest of them are just awful. I tried the effect “Sweet Child O’mine” on my Fender and when I pulled the strings for hear the effect, the sound from my guitar started sketching awfully... I ended up closing the app for let it stop!! Don’t download this app, instead use GarageBand from Apple, it’s Free and great with many effect as well!!.Version: 2.3.6
✓ Please fix it with an update.First, I’ve been using this app for a long time now and i can say that is one of the greatest app that’s free on this category. I really enjoy using my guitar with this app and my Irig2 so I can fully concentrate on what I’m playing, but lately I’ve been having issues with the app. After the latest update was released, the app started crashing every time I tried to open it, yet before I updated the app it was working completely fine. I just want to ask the developers if they could release a new update soon to fix this problem, i really like this app, but unfortunately I haven’t been able to use it for than a month now because of the app crashes. I hope they do something about it soon because this app is great, will rate higher when a solution happens..Version: 2.3.6
✓ Cubasis 3 at the momentPresently any project I load with this au on a channel results in a plugin that never loads. The wheel is spinning but Tonebridge is going nowhere. Great plugin though..Version: 2.3.6
✓ What.I’m surprised this is made by ultimate guitar. All the backing tracks are the same tune !!! This must be greatly improved please..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Tone bridge not recognizing my I rig 2I’ve gone to five different help pages online and nothing seems to help. I’ve used this app before years ago but now when I try and plug in my I rig it doesn’t recognize it. When I plug everything in sound comes from my phone and to my amp just fine, but it doesn’t recognize my guitar being plugged into it. I’ve fiddled with it for days now and nothings working. I even tried buying a new I rig because I thought maybe my old one was broken, but that didn’t change anything Help please.Version: 2.3.8
✓ UselessEssentially, the effects choices are just wrong . No pitch shifter in Radiohead‘a Just, No tremolo in Link Wray’s Rumble. Come on..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Major issues with Irig2 on iPhoneI downloaded this app. I played quite a number of presets and was astonished by the authenticity of the guitar tones of my favorite artists. I own an Irig2. It works well with other apps such as Amplitude or GarageBand. However, this app has an issue I can’t figure out with Irig2. If I use the Amp output in Irig2 then the processed / effect sound of the guitar is not transmitted, rather only the dry signal. I have to use the headphone output of my Irig2 to get the wet signal and that sounded horrible unless I used the noise gate effect but by doing that my guitar tune lost all sensitivity and it is muzzled. I tired playing with volume and effect levels. No luck. I wish the developers tested and worked out this “compatibility” issue with Irig2. It is a very common and versatile connector due to its compact size. I can’t afford to buy another connector due to cost and size of other makes/models. That would make this app a dream come true..Version: 2.3.1
✓ LatencyUnfortunately, noticeable latency ruins this app. Weird, because it’s based on the Ampkit app which has no noticeable latency (settings included to reduce latency). Perhaps you could add those settings to make this app properly usable?.Version: 2.3.12
✓ Erm...Why can’t I access the pedal edit parameters when using this as an AU inside hosts? A shame as makes it quite useless in many situations.... Also needs to be able to mix and match pedals that make up a patch, not only tweak those already assigned to a patch..... And how on earth do I save a preset that I’ve tweaked? So I can use that while in AU? Also why does it keep asking me to login to Facebook... This is potentially a nice sounding and useful app but falls way short in its current state. Frustrating......Version: 2.1
✓ Great for guitarisThis app is amazing. I’m running it off my iPhone with an iRig 2 HD. I love searching out songs and getting the pedal that gives the best recreations of the bands sound. The only reason I haven’t given this 5 stars is because it’s no longer supported. The Bluetooth pedal mapping is all jacked up. You can’t even select what function you are programming to; without it selecting random other functions on your phone..Version: 2.3.10
✓ Idk if it’s apple or TonebridgeEver since I’ve updated my device to iOS 16 I can no longer connect my guitar to the app, my IRIG works fine on my friends phone but doesn’t work on mine, hopefully this will get fixed soon.Version: 2.3.8
✓ Doesn't workIt jumps out of the app then home page when I try one of the pedals?? Help please, I would like to see this app working!.Version: 2.3.6
