I couldn't possibly comment if they sound real or not with my level of knowledge, though the fact companies like Orange, Fender, et al are allowing Amplitude to use their brands has to be a pretty powerful endorsement?
My question would be, on the technical side at least, is it good enough? Not "does a modelled X-DElay-123d" sound identical to a real X-DElay-123d, but does it do a good enough job as a delay pedal? Or another way, does a modelled $200 pedal sound as good as a real $50 pedal? For someone who doesn't want to invest $thousands and would be buying lower end kit, does this represent a way to get more for your limited budget? But really "is it good enough" is the key question - does it sound like a proper electric guitar, not can an expert tell the real from the modelled

that is going to be subjective. all you can do is try the ones in garageband and tweak them. you'll like some and not like some.
i have the istomp that i run thru my ipad and it gives me some great sounds. but again, that is subjective. i also have the free version of amplitude fender and ampkit, both of them give me some decent sounds. i also have a 66 deluxe reverb and, so far, nothing compares with it and its reverb. play music!

I think if we're at the level "it's subjective" then that kind of answers my question, it's good enough you could use it

The answer is yes, it's good enough, and they just keep getting better and cheaper. |

My biggest issue with buying all my own stuff is that I don't really want to have to buy a big, expensive amp - I do expect to play on stage to some degree so I would need a real amp. Modeling an amp even if I had real effects pedals seems quite attractive to me, both to keep the stage volume down and having seen the faff that people go through mic-ing it up "just so". Can you get an effects box which just models an amp, so you can then output through a clean amp?
