About Guitar Amplifier APK
Description
Please read before use.:This is a limited low latency application that allows users to plug a guitar into their phone to amplify the sound. This application only amplifies the sound with clean playback. There are no effects or gain (yet). The only knob that is functional is the volume knob. Swipe left or right on the volume knob to change the volume. You will also need adapters to plug your guitar into your phone (see below for adapters).
I hope to improve this application in the future. It currently works pretty well for single string notes but multiple chords start to overload the sound output a bit. This application is written in C and uses OpenSL ES. Unfortunately it appears certain OpenSL features are not accessible from android at this time. This is currently the limiting factor for effects. The application is written in C to reduce latency. The low latency C implementation is more complex than a regular Java app. I cannot pass the audio data into Java to add effects (this would cause huge latency). All this being said please also understand that this is not a brand new $1000 head going on a 4X12 Half Stack Cab. This is an application that runs on your phone and is powered by a tiny battery. For example: I am able to play simple single string notes but am unable to really get on it with strumming multiple chords in a fast rhythm.
This application is set to a frequency of 48000hz please make sure your phone supports this frequency. I will work on adding a dynamic frequency.
This application will not play through your devices speaker. You need headphones or a Bluetooth speaker. (Conect to the Bluetooth speaker before opening the app)

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
