guitar rig 2

[riffer7777]

been looking at this i think mickey mix has it?im happy to hear from anyone who has it.its fine reading views but you get more from the horses mouth so to speak?like to just get a better perspective on these things !!!!!!!

It rocks....buy it if you can. Try the demo first. It is a stand alone and a VST plugin so it is pretty versitle. The tones are great and some of the effects will blow your m9ind. I have anly spent a few hours with mine but I hope to really get into it soon. Amplitube 2 is also pretty amazing....so many tones....so little time.

cheers pbbobkanobi for that.im always on the look out for new sounds,tones etc.im very impressed with amplitube le in standard riffworks.lots to look at and ponder over.

Amplitube LE is cool ....Amplitube 2 is WAY better and G Rig 2 is the bomb!!!!!!
But I always come back to GearBox for the simplicity and ease of use..........of course i have all the upgrades.....Collectors Classics , Power Pack, Bass X ETC. etc.
I most always end up using GRig 2 and Amplitube 2 for Bass tones ....important nonetheless..... as well as Ampeg SVX for bass............
but like Bobbo says.....try the demo 1st.......and then decide.

cheers mickey,yes i too have gearbox and all the add on packs exept bass.i will just decide when the times right.got 4 more drummers for standard so im well happy at the moment,got lots to be getting on with.i like both rigs they rock !!!!!

[mickeymix]

Bass Xpansion is well worth it....it's like having a BassPod......the Line 6 drivers have almost no latency (lag) compared to GRig 2 or Amplitube 2......and the drivers are even better for the TonePort, which I recently upgraded to from GuitarPort.......

GR is flat out amazing but just waaaay more than I need. I've spent more time tweaking than playing.

Mine is brand new, never registered and for sale.

I have the same Line6 upgrades, including the bass expansion pack, as mickeymix. GearBox is great software, which works seamlessly with RiffWorks.

The big advantage for me is being able to reproduce the same tone whether I'm recording or playing live through the PODxt/Atomic Amp.

Admittedly, my experience beyond GB is limited to Amplitube LE.

I've been down all these roads with Guitar Rig 1 and 2, Amplitube LE and now, version 2. Once you get past the initial fun factor it gets old quick. It becomes a distraction from actually playing. I will say that the model packs for GearBox are WELL worth the investment because there are things in there that you just can't get elsewhere. Can I get a "gear aquisition syndrome"? LOL The gains are minimal. Save your money!

blue4u, you raise a good point.

I was creating new material left and right before the holiday season. Then I went on a music equipment buying beige! Now I have all these new toys but my inspiration is fried – gotta get back to basics.

[gatorjj]

I too became a "gear slut" last year and have sworn off new purchases...for as long as I can stand!

[mickeymix]

sluts!!!!

..........muahahahahaaaaaaaaa

.ME TOO!!!!!

........I gotta agree with Blue4U
The notoriety/Fun factor gets old and I always come back to GearBox.........

It aint the tone in your bone...it's the the junk in your trunk.
