#Guitar rig 5 player reviews software
The most impressive feature of this software is the ability of adjusting the power supply (50- 60 Hz), Variac, Sag, Response, Voltage, & Bias, allowing you to tailor the sound of the amps tubes to your liking. While not being the real thing, the closeness in tone quality to a valve amp is almost unreal. The 150 presets that NI provides in this package will keep you wailing away for hours. The possibilities are endless in Guitar Rig, the versatile software can achieve guitar and bass sounds from jazz, country, rock to metal. Guitar Rig 3 XE is equipped with 6 guitar and bass amps, 12 matched cabinets, 21 effects including time-based, modulation, distortion, volume and modifier effects, two sync-able tape decks for recording ideas, and a tuner and metronome, making for one powerful virtual rack.

The mic input sounds good as well for capturing the sound of your amp or to record vocals. I was able to jam for hours without the sound quality dropping, which can be a problem in cheaper audio interfaces. The converters on this unit are clear as a bell, with no noticeable latency. This unit is also powered via USB, so you won’t have to worry about forgetting the extra power supply. You are also provided with a line/instrument switch and a 48V switch to run a phantom power microphone.

Hardware The USB interface is built into a small black aluminum chassis and provides a mic in, 2 Hi-Z line/instrument inputs, and headphone and stereo outs to run into a pair of powered studio monitors or mixer. The package includes the Guitar Rig Session I/O, a powerful audio interface with 24-bit/192 kHz converters, Guitar Rig 3 XE, Cubase LE 4, Kore Player and Pop Drums Kore SoundPack, providing a useful tool for studio and live use. Native Instruments Guitar Rig Session is the wallet-friendly version of the award-winning audio software plus hardware.
