Great Value! Works Perfectly.
So we are in an age in which technology has got pretty advanced. I use this to control all my effects.. let me explain.
Equipment.
So I have a Fender Supersonic 22 Watt Combo. In the effects loop I have an Apogee One. Thats connected to my iPhone X. The iRig Blueboard Controls the iPhone.
Software
I use Bias FX over Amplitube (purely because Amplitube won't allow you to do what I want). In Bias FX I turn off all the Amp and Cab simulation, and purely use it just for effects. I use the iRig Blueboard software (free download) to connect the iRig Blueboard itself, to my via Bluetooth iPhone.
The iRig Blueboard software is great. You load it up, it searches for you Blueboard, you tap on the button and it connects. Its been flawless since I've owned it. Connects every time, even if in venues where theres loads of different wifi and bluetooth devices around.
Build quality is very good. Id of preferred for that casing to be a bit more durable, but saying that, it would detract from its lightness. Overall though, the build is great.
I highly recommend this if your after a Bluetooth Controller.

Excellent for AmpliTube 5
Bought this product for home use together with AmpliTube (5 for mac and ios). I wasn’t expecting too much in terms of build quality, since it looks a bit «cheap» on the pictures. But I figured it would be OK for my use. I was really positively surprised on the quality though. It’s still plastic, but it is thick and robust plastic. For my daily use at home it will hold up for years and years.
One of the main features I wanted to use the pedal for is the AmpliTube looper. A bit dissapointed that the pedal firmware doesn’t support removing a single loop, or clearing all of them. But who knows, IK Multimedia might find out that they want to add it in a future update. It certainly isn’t a show stopper for me.
Pluging in was really simple, and less than a minute after turning on the power it was ready to go.
I’m having a lot of fun with the BlueBloard, and for my kind of use I can highly recommend it.

Good bang for the buck
I'm using this bluetooth pedalboard with Bias FX running on my iPad pro, for its price works smoothly; the delay of the preset change is often imperceptible while you are playing and overall it is a very versatile and user friendly pedalboard. You can download also its proprietary application on the app store to configure all the settings and to make your device recognize the pedalboard; you can also plug 2 expression pedals to modulate your effects.
It needs a 9 volts battery and the construction quality is not premium, but overall it works well.

works well and I have KILLER TONE with Amplitube IOS
works very well with Amplitube Ios and Irig HD on my ipad pro. No wires, very easy to setup. Now I have a KILLER tone with at least 2 or 3 very specific amp models, I mean absolute killers, although I have Amplitube IOS COMPLETE), both crunch and lead, and two great clean tones with Fender models. I have been a pro guitarist for more than 20 years and am a tube amp nutter. But these two models and cab on my Amplitube 4 simply blows my mind.....powerful and warm, and feels great. (Amplitube 5 sounds and feels different. My fav is v4. )
The whole thing sounds and feels a LOT more expensive than it is! This is pro tone for a modest outlet. I don't understand why people spend thousand or even hundreds on hardware amp sims when you can have THIS. You can throw the whole setup in your gigbag and go anywhere and have assured killer tone at your disposal, and again, it all works EXTREMELY well, this setup is rock solid. Forget about desktop computers and expensive hardware, get this setup and rock your socks off. I can made professional recordings with this and be totally satisfied.

OK
Quite useful IF you have the latest bluetooth.
With this, I love to be able to use my mobile apps or perform computer program changes by feet. Otherwise you'd need to stop playing, right?
Connectivity can be improved. Not very straightforward. Also would be good to have a firmware update which may allow to use on older bluetooth too.

Cool features, lack of quality.
I started to use my ipad for rehearsals and small gigs and i needed a footswitch. iRig blueboard came in to my mind in the first place. Setting it up was really easy, took like 5 minutes. But it looks like a cheap plastic. You need to be gentle when stepping on. But its really great for the money.

Great pedal for amplitube setup
I've got an amplitube iPad setup and this blueboard works perfectly with it, I can change presets with it. I also bought Moog Ep expression pedal with it and now I can program any button or knob to work with it. I play live gigs too. Really nice stuff. Once again IK multimedia has done great.

Does the job
This is a great little MIDI controller. I use it with Mainstage for changing patches and tap tempo. Highly recommend.
One con is the blueboard App can be a little unreliable. However, it does have a 'Raw MIDI' mode so the App is not essential.
