I don't think you're correct on this one, the modeling of the Guitar- and TonePorts is done inside the hardware. That's why you can use them regardless of higher latencies.

Sacha, I am afraid I have to agree with funky on this one. TonePort is just an I/O interface basicly and a dongle to the software on the PC. Exactly like GuitarPort.

HEHE!
See my last post about the 80-ish look and ART MIDI pedals, which I posted at the same time

Yes Sascha,

I thought the same when I saw your post after sending mine!

Best wishes, FRitz

Any more feedback from EAS on AT2 or GR2?

I have no clue about TonePort, but GuitarPort definitely has NO onboard processing. All software.

AT2 won't likely come with much on the bass end of things (though it may have a little? I don't know?) because of the Ampeg plug-in also being released by IK.

.. i SO hope for the IK bass plugin, as my superfave basssound is also a preset of Amplitube 1.
but weren´t there rumors that there are legal kind of problems (or something like this) in releasing this bass plug?
my feeling is that we won´t see it .. i hope i am wrong.

i am really unsure now if i´ll really go for AT2, as i now can upgrade my NI Komplete 2 to version 3, which would also include Guitar Rig 2.
hmmm ...

maybe i´ll at least wait for the first AT2 demo-mp3´s after NAMM ..

This sucks...I want to hear some sound samples from AT2 because if I buy AT1 now and get the free upgrade to AT2 and I don't like it, I am stuck with both. If I decide to sell, then I have to pay a 99$ transfer fee! This is simply insane.

IKMM, we want samples!!!

.. yes, a bit more of a rock´n roll attitude would fit them well beside the sexgirl ..

I haven't heard about the legal stuff, putte, but it wouldn't surprise me if the plug-in's being held up. Otherwise, we'd have heard more about it by now I'm sure.

I had a listen to the GR2 demo songs on their website, and they're OK-ish. I'd definitely use that plug-in for my hobbyist-type stuff without any fear of it sounding like crap. But there was still something I didn't love about the demos...

Maybe the compression they used? I dunno!

hmm...the GR2 demos still sound flat and plastic to me. It is better than GR1 seemed to be and it's not that god awful washed out metalic tone from AT1. But I still don't care for it much.

What could be political about a bass amp plug-in?

.. i cant recall it, but there was something. sorry, ma native language isnt english, so probably the words "legal" and "politics" dont really fit in here. hmm ..

I think 'politics' is the right word as one meaning is 'Based on or motivated by partisan or self-serving objectives: a purely political decision.' according to dictionary.com
