Duke, I sent a few requests to Positive Grid yesterday, including the Parametric EQ (or an EQ pedal voiced for bass).
I also requested that they fix the "change profil pic" setting that causes the app to crash.
The reply came within five minutes. "time for another bass expansion pack".
I love these guys!!
Can you imagine if they release a second bass expansion? It'll probably happen before even a single new bass offering in Amplitube.

Yep, they great!
IK multimedia will most likely delete a bass amp then add one!!

Btw, I've posted "some" clips here earlier today.... You guys should stop me if it too much.... !

I'm just trying to wrap my head around the idea of that much bass gear!!
I've already found "my sound", with the GK (or Blueline depending on my mood) in Jamup, with the LA-2A comp. it makes the most beautiful grinding rock tone, and I have a bank of presets for different tones depending on my needs.

My biggest concern now is that my tone in Jamup has now surpassed my "real" amp tone. Seriously. This sounds BETTER than my actual bass amp!!

The concern happens because now I've gotta convince soundguys that this is the signal they want to use, NOT the DI on my amp.

The thing that really gets me is that every time (and I mean EVERY time) I send a twitter message to Positive Grid with any suggestion (or just general comment), I get an answer within MINUTES, and it's never just lip service.

If they have something planned, they share. If there's something that needs fixed, they'll tell you if it's in an upcoming update (like the profile pic bug, they've already got the fix submitted).

This kind of customer relations don't go unnoticed. It means a LOT to me that we can get this level of support.

Yes, the GK have this nice grind tone, that is why I've kind of took the clips yesterday with the P bass and the GK, thought that you will like it!
I've no concern about not wanting an amp when I so satisfied with my tone.
My Ibanez 20W combo have no tone.... but my Sansamps are suddenly "old hardware"....

It's going to be a busy weekend for me! I downloaded many of the apps that have been talked about in this thread but I haven't had the chance to use them yet.

This thread is great, and perfect timing for me.

I've installed Jamup XT, Bass expansion pak, and tube comp based on info here.

This stuff is astounding. The future is upon us!

Thanks for showing us the way.

it does mean a lot!!!!! not just the copy/paste responses like IK.
i KNOW that Jamup will come out with another bass expansion before ik releases another single bass amp.... no doubt in my mind.

For real! There's so much inside a lot of these app, it can get overwhelming quick.

Loopy is one of the more complex ones, but only as complicated as you make it.
It's real easy to get it going, but if you dig deeper, it's an amazingly powerful app.

Jamup just makes my day every time I plug in. I'm still finding new tones and the ones I've got saved as presets (I've uploaded several of them) just straight up ROCK.

Adam, I talked to the Jamup guys yesterday on Twitter (@positivegrid), and gave them the link to this thread. They thanked me and assured me that they will be watching us.

In just 4 days (since 12/17/2012) this thread now has 297 posts and has been viewed 3,963 times. So it is definitely being watched... There are many lurkers ready to get out of the shadows. They KNOW they want an alternative to hauling all that gear day/night in and day/night out, so they come here to find out what's shaking.

Which means JamUp is in an excellent position to tap on a fairly large community because no one has become the "Amazon" of bass amp/efx emulation yet (did you hear that Positive Grid?).
