Anyone using Guitar Rig?

Bloody hell. I've been checking it the last 3 days. It's unbelievable. I have a Line 6 Guitar Port, but there's no comparison.

I can't speak for Guitar Rig, but I was pretty impressed with Amplitube and IK's other software. I've got a feeling Guitar Rig would only top that.

Edit: Just to add it still needs to be matched with good hardware.

Yes, that's true. It's the demo I'm running without the floorboard. I go into a Joe Meek VC3 then into an RME Multiface. Latency 3ms.

I believe if you have the floorboard then it should work with any modern computer, as there's a dedicated sound card in the floorboard.

Guitar Rig? Are you serious? There was a major fault identified with that and they were all recalled - do not plug it in again, pack it carefully and return it immediately.

Apparently it can catch fire or explode.

Where did you hear about that?
Can you post up a URL with the return/recall details?
Doesn't appear to be anything posted up on their website.

Nothing on their website?

Sorry.

Very good.

I was certainly LMAO, scaring people is always good...

So how would guys say GR compares to sims like Pod XT or a boss GT?

I love guitatport.
I love Pod XT.
i wouldn't use either of them through an amp with the band in rehearsal or live, but in front of a PC or with headphones on, or for recording they sound excellent.

Ideally I would like to be able to record any guitar parts in to my system clean since my guitar skills are severely lacking to put it mildly. But I wanted to make sure the program can give me descent distortions for the type of music we do. Tho it is just for writing and demo purposes. But bad sound doesn't inspire creativity either.
