Line 6 POD Farmīefore being appointed by U-He, Sascha Eversmeier earned his reputation thanks to his amazing freeware plug-ins (available at ) and his contributions to some of the best effects available in Magix Samplitude (especially Robota, AM-Phibia, AM-Pulse, AM-Track, VariVerb, and the Vandal guitar amp). Also available for iPad via the Auria app. In short, an extremely comprehensive software tool that is very easy to use. It also features an accurate control of the microphone position (besides the distance, you can set both horizontal and vertical positions as well as the tilting of the mics). Among the special features, note the possibility to morph two amps together (and no, we are not talking about mixing here), which is a very simple and original way to create new amp types. With unofficial emulations of famous Vox, Fender, Marshall, Peavey, MesaBoogie, and Soldano amps, the software also provides many official simulations signed by THD, Randall and Brunetti, plus an impressive stompbox arsenal. So it's no surprise to us that many guitar players currently consider the TH2 as the most realistic sounding virtual amp on the market. A freeware pack that ridiculed commercial competitors in terms of emulation authenticity. With a very realistic GUI that provides a global view of the rig and the possibility to zoom into each element to access its settings, Overloud's TH2 and its small sibling TH1 are distant descendants of the Simulanalog Guitare Suite. Standalone/VST/AU/RTAS, available in 32/64-bit and iOS versions
Even if Guitar Rig is not what we would call affordable when bought alone, it is included in the Komplete bundle, which offers an unbeatable value for money, and this is a huge advantage over competitors. Its only defect is that while this wild beast will surely entertain sound engineers and demanding guitar players alike, it will discourage users who just want a pedalboard+amp setup in their computer. We would like to see this feature in all products because it allows the user to shape any guitar track easily. But its other great asset is the control room section where you can mix the sound captured by several microphones, exactly like in a real studio.
With the ability to produce every imaginable sound, from the most simple to the most complex, Guitar Rig is a real delight for sound designers. Inspired by the rack concept of the first ReValver version but adding a myriad of effects, modules and routing options (you can split the signal endlessly), Guitar Rig is certainly one of the most powerful software amps on the market.
