When we introduced Guitar for the iPhone, the goal was simple: unleash the most playable instrument possible for the iPhone. This time, it's all about your personal Tone. iShred starts with a set of high-fidelity guitar samples, then feeds them through eight exciting effects pedals and an overdriven amp simulator. Whether you're want a clean trebly surf sound, a spacey rock lead, or an all-out metal assault, iShred delivers the goods. The sonic line-up includes these virtual stomp-boxes:
* Adrenaline: Treble Booster for that extra shot
* HK-2000 Delay: For fat slap sound or huge echo
* Hot Fuzz: Get buzzed with an electrifying distortion
* Kömpressör: Power chords just beg for it
* Q-36 Space Modulator: Multi-pattern modulation
* Sybil: Dual chorus pedal to hear your evil twin
* Trembler: Get a healthy dose of Tremolo
* Wahsabi: Tilt your iPhone to control this wah pedal!
Use up to four effects on a song. All of the effects parameters are saved with the song. And with the new "AirPlay" iShred acts as a pocket-guide to songs from around the world, letting you rate (and save) performances from other users.
As with Guitar, our advanced acoustic guitar app, iShred provides a playing interface that's both powerful and easy to learn. Create your songs from a huge library of over 2000 built-in chords, scales, and fret positions, by assigning them to the two rows of buttons at the top of the screen. The buttons give you immediate access to all the chords and scales you need for a song, and let you easily switch between strumming chords and playing melodies. You can even execute advanced moves such as hammer-on's, pull-off's, and pitch bends. There's even support for the left-handed guitarist.
Once you've got your song and your sound mojo working, you can capture your performance to play it back for your friends, or yourself while you jam along with it. It's easy: just switch to the Recorder and press the red button. The recorder controls slide out of your way while *you* rock out!
Want to save your songs in a safe place? Copy a song? Keep a backup before changing a song? Transfer a song to another iPhone, or to Guitar? iShred's web backup and retrieval make it easy to do any of these things anytime you have a wireless connection.
Note: After installing iShred we recommend that you power your device off and on to reset system memory.
