Hi,

I haven't seen this mentioned, but I just wanted you all to check out the GR2 TV spots that NI has up on their website. Haha ... I laughed and laughed. So morbid ...

Medium-funny? Haha ... no no, HILARIOUS. Something about morbid slapstick ... haha ... guys getting smoked in the head, etc. COMEDY! Have you seen that soup commercial with the "3 O'clock Wall"? The one where people are walking around and slamming into brick-walls in the middle of nowhere? Oh man ... my sides ...

Haha, he hurt himself. Fun-eeeeeee! (hardly

)

Actually, to my "sensibility" anyway, these clips demonstrate exactly what GR isn't good for. Live performance. Looks. Robustness. Is the audience going to all have headphones on connected to my computer? Or will I have to get them to gather close around the multimedia speakers? Oh I know, I'll play my virtual amp through the house PA, hope I can hear it, and pray my hard drive doesn't crash when I run into it like he does to his cabinets. RIGHHHHHHHT.

Sure there may be a dead guitarist under that collapsed Marshall stack, but at least his gear's probably still ok. We can find another guitarist... but amps are expensive!

But seriously... GR, et al, are still cool for the bedroom studio. It's kind of a shame N.I. wasted all that money on producing a dumb joke commercial when they could have made something that got the real point across. Kinda explains why their product needs to be so pricey if this is how they spend their advertising dollars (er, Euros.)

Result: 2 out of 3 Canadians think slapstick is stupid.

The commercial with the 3pm wall is funny.
