Apogee Electronics has introduced the US$129 JAM 96k, a professional guitar interface for the iPad, iPhone and Mac. It lets you connect your guitar to your iOS or OS X device, whether you’re on-the-go or in a recording studio.

Its circuitry is designed to reproduce the unique interaction between guitar and tube amp, resulting in an authentic tone and responsive feel from any guitar or music creation app you choose, according to the folks at Apogee. For beginners to the most seasoned guitar players, JAM 96k delivers an inspiring experience for practicing, recording, or just jamming, they add.
 
The new JAM 96k features tube amp tone emulation and a nickel-plated finish. Itk also provides the ability to make higher fidelity recordings — up to 24-bit/96kHz – and includes an iOS Lighting cable in the box. Like its predecessor, JAM 96k also includes an iOS 30-pin cable and Mac USB cable. Go to http://www.apogeedigital.com for more info.
