Guitar Rig 5 PRO
Who said only the analog equipment can give good results? For sure it has a singular warmness and definition, but we are in the digital era, where the emulations are becoming always more and more similar to the original sources. We are introducing the new guitar\bass plugin: Guitar Rig 5.
Native Instruments have been pretty quite when it comes to Guitar Rig since the release of version 4 2 years ago with only a minor update along the way but just as I thought NI had forgotten about us amp modelling loving guitarists they announce Guitar Rig 5 Pro which comes loaded with a couple of stunning new amps and cabinets and a huge update to the Control Room.
The Amps
The two amp additions to an already versatile collection are the VAN 51 (based on the Peavey 5150) and the Hot Solo+ (based on the Soldano Hot Rod 50 Plus). Both of these as you probably know are high gain amps which Guitar Rig 4 was lacking a little with the majority of amp models based on Plexi’s and classic Fender amps so this comes as a welcome addition to the Gratifier (Mesa Dual Rectifier style amp) and the Ultrasonic (Bogner Uberschall).
With amp emulation getting better and better with every release Native Instruments are helping guitarists all around the world get exactly the tones they want without having to spend thousands on amps, effects, speakers and mics and make recording a simple and speedy process.

We tried to reach a good digital emulation of this awesome full analog release, to check the Guitar Rig 5 quality. Drums are from Addictive Drums Metal (a very close review of it in the next posts).
The gear used:
- Guitar: Musicman JP6 (baritone tuning)
- Guitar Rig: Dark Label Studio custom preset (available to download, contact us for a free copy of it)
- Addictive Drums + Metal expansion
- Bass: direct
- Voice: MXL V69 Mogami edition [recorded in a shitty room :) ]
Enjoy.
