Advanced Search Techniques

Beyond Basic Searches

Once you're familiar with the basics of Amply, you can leverage our advanced search techniques to find exactly what you're looking for with greater precision. This guide will show you how to refine your searches and get more targeted results.

Using Specific Parameters

Our AI can understand specific parameters within your requests. Try including the following details in your queries:

• Price Range: "Show me acoustic guitars between £500 and £800"
• Brand Preferences: "I'm looking for Fender or Gibson electric guitars under £1000"
• Technical Specifications: "I need a MIDI controller with at least 49 keys and aftertouch support"
• Materials: "Show me solid mahogany acoustic guitars"
• Conditions: "I'm interested in both new and used bass guitars"

The more specific your parameters, the more targeted our recommendations will be.

Comparison Requests

You can ask Amply to compare specific products or categories:

• "Compare the Shure SM58 and the Rode NT1"
• "What's the difference between condenser and dynamic microphones?"
• "Pros and cons of 88-key vs 61-key keyboards for a beginner"

Our AI will generate a detailed comparison, highlighting the key differences to help you make an informed decision.

Follow-up Questions

One of the most powerful features of Amply is the ability to refine your search through conversation. After receiving initial recommendations, you can ask follow-up questions like:

• "Which of these has the best build quality?"
• "Are there any options with better low-end response?"
• "What's the warranty like on the first option?"
• "Can you show me similar options but with more inputs?"
• "Is there anything more affordable with similar features?"

Each follow-up question helps our AI better understand your needs and refine the recommendations accordingly.

Using Your Studio Profile

If you've set up a My Studio profile, you can reference your existing equipment in your searches:

• "What audio interface would work well with my current setup?"
• "Recommend guitar pedals that would complement my playing style and current gear"
• "What's the best upgrade from my current microphone for vocal recording?"

Our AI will consider your profile information when making recommendations, ensuring compatibility and logical progression in your equipment collection.
