Harness the power of your iPad with the programmable Digitech IPB-10 pedalboard -- its user-friendly interface makes sonic experiments simple!

Connect your iPad to the DigiTech iPB-10 pedalboard and you'll have access to a cutting-edge sound laboratory, without the headache of learning a complicated interface. This programmable multi-effects pedalboard was designed around the iPad, allowing you to take control of 87 unique pedals, 54 amps, and 26 cabinets. You'll have everything you need to create your ideal pedalboard with an endless supply of sonic possibilities, from fresh boutique tones to classic vintage textures.

This video from DigiTech gives a great intro to the iPB-10:


Tap and Touch To Set Up Your Pedalboard

Once you've downloaded the iPB-Nexus app, plug your iPad into the iPB-10 and you're ready to connect the pedalboard to your guitar amp, DI box, or audio interface. The iPB-10 includes a 1/4-inch input and effect loops, stereo 1/4-inch and XLR outputs, and even an 1/8-inch headphone output. DigiTech designed the iPB-10 to be easily incorporated into your current setup, so its role in shaping your sound can continue to grow over time.

While some multi-effect pedalboards are notoriously difficult to program, the iPB-10 was designed to harness the intuitive power of the Apple iPad or iPad 2. With the iPB-Nexus app you get a real-time view of your pedals, amp, and cabinet in a clear and familiar display, so you can quickly see if a pedal is on or off, where its knobs are set, and which footswitch it's assigned to. Adjust and arrange your setup with just a few swipes of your finger.

Perfect Your Sound At Home

read more Sonic experimentation is crucial in developing a unique sound. That's where the benefits of a completely programmable pedalboard like the DigiTech iPB-10 really come through. Just plug in your guitar and a pair of headphones and start rocking with thousands of possible combinations. With its intuitive drag-and-drop design, building complex effects chains will quickly become second nature. Whether you've mastered the perfect pedal setup, or are still perfecting one, it's easy to store your ideas with the iPB-Nexus's 'My Tone Library' -- where you can organize and rate an infinite number of presets, and group them any way you want.

Once you craft your ideal tone just grab a USB cable and plug the iPB-10 into your computer to easily record a scratch track or demo in studio quality 44.1 kHz/24-bit resolution. Not near a computer? Just load up your favorite audio recording app and track directly onto your iPad.

Streamline Your Next Gig

Leave that heavy amplifier and cabinet at home and plug the DigiTech iPB-10 directly into a PA via stereo 1/4" TRS or XLR. With your choice of 54 amplifiers and 26 cabinets, you get hundreds more possibilities than you ever would from a traditional stack, all while fitting in the passenger side of your car.

Having to dial in your settings between every song can be a real show killer-- that's why the iPB-10 lets you instantly cue up to a hundred different presets in seconds via the 'My Tone Library' with a click of a button, so you can focus on your performance, not your knob positions. Each preset offers a combination of amp, cabinet, and 10 unique pedals, all of which can be shifted in real time so you can radically change your sound without missing a beat.

Rugged Construction

The road can be a dangerous place for gear. That's why the iPB-10 is built with a solid metal enclosure and protective cover for your iPad. Still worried? You can plug in your iPad before your set, load up all of your presets, then safely detach your iPad-- and all of your settings will stay on the iPB-10. If you need to change your sound, all you need to do is attach your iPad again for a few seconds, cue up a new preset, and you're ready to go.

Pedalboard Simplicity

Simply swipe your finger across the iPad to rearrange your pedals, turn them on and off, or to adjust their knobs.

Multi-effects Flexibility

The DigiTech iPB-10 brings the concept of presets to a pedalboard. This allows you to save 100 of your favorite pedalboards with the touch or your finger, and instantly recall them with the stomp of your foot.

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I would certainly get another if it were "stolen". I have only had this unit for about a month and I am extremely attached to it. Hands down the best pedalboard I have ever used.

Sound
Say what you want about Digitech... They've been in the game for a long time and it shows in their craftsmanship and sound. The range of sounds obtainable in this unit are really astounding. Anyone not considering buying this unit based on pure hearsay is doing themselves an injustice. It only took a few minutes experimenting with the iPB-10 to be overwhelmingly impressed. Nothing short of sonic and playable!

Features
For those of you who believe that having the iPad as the visual interface is a bad idea, consider this. Once you have synched it to the iPB-10, it no longer needs to be "in" the unit. All of the sounds come from the iPB-10 itself. Also, having the iPad as an interface is absolutely beautiful and creatively easy to use. If you do not already have an iPad, buying one is something you should consider for many reasons aside from the iPB-10. It is an amazing product in itself.

Ease of Use
Spend just an hour with this unit and you will see just how easy it is to use and get some of the most amazing guitar sounds you've ever dreamed of. And even many you never would have imagined. I have been playing guitar for 35 years and this product is well worth more than the retail price based on my experience. read more If you add up the price for all of the different cabs, amps, and stomp boxes that are available within this unit, you would spend a small fortune. It's all included for just $500.00.

Quality
Stomp on it all day and night and it will just keep right on going. Superb craftsman ship.

Value
Compare it to anything else on the market that offers anything near what this does and you will see.

Manufacturer Support
Digitech has excellent support and will do just about anything to take care of their customers. I have been a customer of theirs for over 15 years.

The Wow Factor
It's a guitar player's best buddy. It looks like a pro pedalboard because it is a "pro pedalboard".

Musical Background:
35 years, all instruments, producer, recording engineer, singer songwriter

Musical Style:
Rock, trance, folk rock, pop
