Useless???  I think some of my songs want to give you a call to complain. They think they sound pretty good using GTR LE. Just saying...

I wouldn't say LE is useless. If you have access to only one amp that is only okish, I think it provides some ok flexibility and very useable sounds.

I also don't give a damn about if it sounds accurate or not. No average listener will know about that. What really matters is DOES IT SOUND GOOD??? Good and accurate are two potentially VERY different things.

But ultimately for $50!?! Downloading now. 1 min left :D

woah...   hold on a second...   I thought he was talking about the free guitar rig five player..   the guitar rig player is a little useless..  I've got that free player, I know all about it.


Guitar Rig LE, that comes with Sonar is very good!!!   I'm happy to have it.  :-)


Relax guys



Edit = furthermore..  I quite like Guitar Rig LE, and I quite like Guitar Rig in General.  Also like Kontakt and want to buy it for access to third party libraries...   Unfortunately, I've kinda blown the software budget probably till later this summer, or end of summer when work picks up again...

Besides, if I have any extra cash this month or next, its going to victims of the Colorado Batman Tragedy..  Cause I hate hearing stuff like that, and I've been way weepy over it...

Is the free Guitar Rig player worth the download and using it in Sonar? I don't play guitar, but I would like to have some useful guitar sounds to go with Sonar. Peace
Howdy,

Are you talking about the free GR5 player, like the Kontakt player, or r u talking about Guitar Rig LE, that comes with Sonar?

:-)





Cheers

I have GR version 4. Is it worth getting version 5? It didn't seem to have much new in it?

Speaking of which, my donation when to this particular victim. Terrible story.. It's amazing seeing how much people are giving. It has gone up about $150,000 in the last 24 hours.

Personally, I usually try to have the latest of everything, on the assumption that it is always "better." Not a good assumption I know, but that's just me.


I have GR5, and I totally missed the fact that I could upgrade my LE version that came with Sonar. I'm new to amp modelling and effects, but I am liking what I hear so far.


As well as using it with real guitar, I am also experimenting putting GR5 into the effects bin of Dim Pro instances, while using a so called guitar preset. Sounds okay...


I am also trying out the AAS Strum instruments with GR5. I fancy having a go at making MIDI guitar sound as authentic as possible. Yes, I am a heathen monster...

i use both GR and Amplitube..and both are mind blowing. the options and control guitarist have now is amazing..and cheap!! even the LE versions have some smoking features, that would have cost you a $1000 10 yrs ago.  i didnt want to believe it, cause i know what it took in the past to achieve a certain sound. and the truth of the matter...the software offers more tonal options, possibilities, and convenience than the hardware its modeled after. GR and Amplitube keeps getting better and better man..there is almost nowhere else for it to go.

Good deal that I also went for. However I ended up also doing the upgrade to Kontakt 5 from 4. Good price so I went for it even though I am not sure it really adds anything from 4. Ah well. My wife will forgive me after a back rub... well maybe I'll make dinner tonight....

I just can't decide between GR5 or BFD Eco - both are currently $49.  I really can't afford to do both right now...
 
That ECO sale includes the Rock Legends expansion kit from Platinum Samples, which is pretty good IMHO. Don't care especially much for the Rock Legends snare, which is tuned very, very low. But with the right EQ, the Rock Legends kick drum is my favourite among all the BFD2 kits i have, both stock and expansion.
