We tested them on various settings, Dry signal, Clean with a few touches of Reverb, Delay and Chorus, then on Crunch setups through to High Gain screaming distortion settings. All we did was swap out one device for the other and compare. As far as possible we kept the amp settings, guitar settings and iPad exactly the same. We tried both devices with identical settings through each app in turn. We played our Epiphone Les Paul twin humbucker guitar, through both the iRig and AmpKit LiNK, into the two apps that partner them, Amplitube 2 for iPad from IK Multimedia and AmpKit v1.1 from Agile Partners. We are obviously not audio specialists or expert musicians, but we wanted to test these devices in a reasonably authentic way as far as the average iPad owner might use them. We tried both interfaces on our iPhones but primarily we are reporting on the results from the iPad, especially now that Version 1.1 of the AmpKit app is iPad native. The main difference though is that, unlike the iRig, Peavey's AmpKit LiNK is powered, by 2 x AAA batteries, with what Peavey claim is " circuitry that virtually eliminates feedback". The interfaces both have a headphone socket to monitor the processed signal back out of the Apps. This signal is input via the headphone socket (not the Dock connector) because of the Microphone input present there. The iRig and AmpKit LiNK both have the same purpose, to get a line level audio signal from an instrument or microphone into your iOS device. So, which one is better? Read on to see what we found. We are fortunate enough to have got hold of both of them and we have been using them for a while now, testing them head to head. Peavy probably makes one, and Behringer makes an inexpensive one.When it comes to getting a guitar (or other instrument) input into your iPad there are arguably two major players, iRig by IK Multimedia and AmpKit LiNK by Peavey. You can also get Guitar-USB interfaces, so you can record the guitar directly on the computer (with Audacity or other recording software), if you'd rather do that than use the iPhone. If you don't want to edit, you may not need Audacity. Then, you can use Audacity for editing, if you wish. Then you should be able to transfer the audio file to your computer digitally via USB. I assume you can record to your iPhone with the peavy gizmo. There are a couple of other options, depending on what you are trying to do. You obviously don't need Audacity to play a sound on your computer, or to hear the sound coming into the computer's mic input (out of the laptop speakers, or the laptop's headphone-out). but no signal from the guitar comes out of Audacity?You're getting sound from where? From the computer, or from the iPhone? Are these "recordings' on yoru iPhone, or on your computer? I can connect everything and get sound from recordings I've done. A headphone-out to line-in on a desktop computer is a better match. The headphone-out from your iPhone to the mic-in on your laptop should "work", but the mic input is usually too sensitive for a headphone-level signal and you might get distortion.

You just need to configure the Windows audio control panel properly.

And, you don't need any special software to hear the sound coming into the computer's mic input (out of the laptop speakers, or the laptop's headphone-out). You obviously don't need Audacity to play a sound on your computer.
What are you really trying to do? Do you want to record on your iPhone, or the computer? but no signal from the guitar comes out of Audacity?You're getting sound from where? From the computer, or from the iPhone? Are these "recordings" on your iPhone, or on your computer?
