To be honest, there was much difficulty getting the program activated. Once it was, it exceeded my expectations! It was well worth the wait. You can get excellent tones from this software.

Didn't Believe It was NI

I have been a longtime guitar rig owner ( i have 2-4) and rarely found myself using the plugin. I use Logic 9 so I have the amp simulation effects that comes stock (Amp Designer) I also have Pod Farm ... read more [+](not the platinum version) some amps from IK Multimedia's amplitube custom shop and Waves GTR3 and I have demoed TH2 Overloud so I have pretty much tried every amp sim out there. That being said, Guitar Rig 5 Pro is one of my favorites. NI really did update the thing.

There are two new amp models (which sound great IMO) I have never been able to get such tight sounding distorted guitars in such little time and there are some great clean presets that rival those in Waves GTR3.

Finally Guitar Rig allows for the positional movement of microphones on a the speaker cone (something that TH2 Overload and Amplitube have had for a while as well as Amp Designer in Logic 9.)

The icing on the cake is that NI partnered with the guys from redwirez (if you don't know what they do check them out) to have cabinet impulses which just takes GT5 over the top.

I am in no way shape or form affiliated with NI. close [-]
