DISTORTION AND OVERDRIVE.

GUITAR RIG 5 PRO provides you with eleven fuzz, distortion and overdrive units. These components are accurate reproductions of classic hardware devices, and sound just like the originals.

REVERB AND DELAY.

We took extra care to deliver the finest selection of virtual delays and reverbs available. Based on award-winning NI algorithms, these units add the right space and distance in any setup.

MODULATION.

These perfectly-modeled effects can add subtle movement, vintage vibrations or dramatic dynamics, from a swirling 70s phaser to volatile synthesizer sounds.

FILTERS.

Filtering is one of the most powerful ways to shape your sound, and GUITAR RIG 5 PRO offers several great tools to do it. Choose from an impressive range of filter-based effects, from wah-wahs to EQs.

LEVELS AND DYNAMICS.

Take control of your levels with this collection of compressors, limiters, noise gates, and volume pedals. Add bite, max-out the levels before running into other effects, or boost your signals into overdrive.

CUSTOM MULTI-EFFECTS.

The Container Module is a utility for creating multi-effects and custom channel strips. Assemble your processing chain, then assign the eight macro-controls to the key controls on any of the effects in the chain.

Master FX allows you to keep effects engaged while switching between presets. Put global effects like reverb and delay into a Master FX module. This will stay at the end of your signal chain, regardless of what happens in front of it.

SPLITTERS.

The Split Module allows you to create parallel effects chains. Split the sound in two, process each stream with different effects and then mix the results back together at the end. Insert one anywhere in the rack.

The Crossover Mix device splits the signal into high and low frequencies. This lets you apply effects to the high frequencies only, leaving the low frequencies untouched as a solid foundation for the sound.

MODIFIERS.

Analog Sequencer – Up to 16 adjustable steps for more variable triggering.

Input Level – An envelope follower that scans the volume of the input signal and transforms it into a control signal. Useful for dynamic response effects e.g. the louder you play, the more distortion you get.

Step Sequencer – Up to 16 on/off steps for 'hard' triggering.

Multi-Step Envelope – Graphical sound editing! The shape of the curve defines the modulation.

LFO (low frequency oscillator) – With five waveforms and a choice of continuous or arbitrary modulation.

LOOP MACHINE.

Record a riff, loop it, and solo over the top. Play a synth bassline and experiment with accompaniments. Or create complex multi-part vocal harmonies. Sync the Loop Machine to the tempo of your host sequencer, and export either the layered loop or the individual layers.

TAPE DECKS.

The Tape Decks are a great tool for recording and capturing ideas. Use time-stretching to slow down a riff while practicing, or use the pitch-shifting function to transpose a riff into a different key. The Tape Decks play wave files and MP3s. Play along to the loops provided or load your own backing tracks.

TUNER AND METRONOME.

Besides simple, precise tuning, the Tuner offers presets for common tunings, such as Chromatic, Bass, Open D / E / G / A, and DADGAD. A Cent mode and Strobe mode provide two different visual pointers, and the Mute mode lets you tune silently.

The Metronome is not only for keeping time – it also serves as the clock for all synchronized rack modules, such as modulation and delay effects. Easily adjustable and with numerous helpful features, Metronome will help keep your playing tight.

Amps and Cabinets include:

Legendary guitar and bass amplifiers, modeled with award-winning Dynamic Tube Response Technology. Each amp has its own matched cabinet plus an extra set of choice cab models – 27 exquisite models in all. Plus, eight legendary microphones, flexible mic positioning, and four rotary speaker simulations.

VAN 51.

A heavy amp with a superstar signature sound from hard rock to blistering crunch — great for drop tunings and menacing palm-muted chug, but also extremely flexible.

HOT SOLO+.

This one recalls a classic hand-wired tube amp with a boutique, responsive overdriven tone. For expressive, singing solos that still sound heavy as hell, the Hot Solo+ is your amp.

PLEX.

The classic Plexi sound probably needs no introduction - it's the vintage amp sound that has powered too many hit records to mention! Your ultimate classic for blues and rock.

HOT PLEX.

We all love the classic Plex sound, but wait until you hear this gain-spiced version of it! A generous amount of distortion will boost your vintage tones into the future.

COOL PLEX.

When all you want is that heart-warming vintage clean sound - sparkling and with a dash of saturation - look no further. The Cool Plex adds soul to any retro tone: transparent, yet thick and charismatic.

LEAD 800.

This smooth, intense lead sound cuts like a knife and offers plenty of flexibility. While the Plex works very well for both chunky rhythm sounds and leads, the Lead 800 gives a brighter, more edgy sound.

JUMP.

The sound of the Jump is a well-behaved alternative to the Lead 800 – sporting a bit less gain, but at the same time perfecting the smooth, singing lead sounds we love to hear from British amps.

AC BOX.

The AC Box delivers the famous sound that powered the British conquest of pop music. We chose a model that not only features a unique flavor but also some nice circuit wizardry adding a Brilliant channel.

CITRUS.

If you're yearning for that 70's British sound with a bunch of flavor, the Citrus amp is for you! Its tones range from the edge of clean to gritty distortion when master and gain controls are cranked.

HIGH WHITE.

Are you seeking the signature British sound of David Gilmour and Pete Townsend? Then we think you'll want to spend some time with the High White – we're talking 100 virtual watts of pure tone.

JAZZ AMP.

The Jazz Amp produces a warm, clean tone. An essential part of its sound is the Ensemble effect, which adds chorusing or vibrato. As a result, the Ensemble is built into the Jazz Amp.

GRATIFIER.

The Gratifier emulates a famous multi-channel solo head with a tube power amp. A fourth channel has been added to span the tonal range from clean to over-the-top distortion.

ULTRASONIC.

You asked for an ultra-modern, ultra-high-gain, über-cool amp? We present the Ultrasonic! A two-channel boutique amp with all the modern tones you could even want.

TWANG REVERB.

The Twang Reverb simulates the rich tube sound of a classic amp from decades ago. It is ideal for screaming blues leads, crunchy rhythm guitar sounds, as well as clean sounds laden with personality.

TWEED DELIGHT.

There's nothing like the spank of an amp covered in tweed! This amp, based on an American legend, is designed to go from glassy clean, to bluesy squawk – with only three control knobs.

TWEEDMAN.

The role model of the Tweedman was originally designed as a bass amp. Since then, it has made its way as a classic guitar amp. Of course, it still works equally great in its originally intended role.

BASS PRO.

This monster bass amp delivers that gritty, growling sound that really makes a bass stand out in a mix. In addition to the unique tonal qualities, there's also a graphic equalizer to allow the sound to be tailored more precisely.
