Auto Wah Sounds

AmpliTube 2
An Auto Wah sound in AmpliTube 2, put through a 50-watt Marshall. Notice that this wah fluctuates at a predetermined tempo - when the tempo is locked to the track you can get a cool, "in sync" sound.

Guitar Rig 2
Guitar Rig 2's take on the auto wah - it is warm, sustained and would be great for a unique lead solo. Notice that the Guitar Rig wah follows the rhythm of the way each note is played.

Solid-State Metal Sounds

AmpliTube 2's take on a high-gain rhythm sound with a tight, focused bottom-end.

Guitar Rig 2
Guitar Rig 2's take on the high-gain rhythm sound. This clip features a double stack of cabinets, and has a bit more midrange.

Mesa Boogie Sounds

AmpliTube 2
In this clip, AmpliTube 2 replicates a Mesa Boogie Dual Recto at full-tilt. There are more mids here and not as much bass as the previous solid-state examples, but still plenty of attitude.

It's also easy to add effects to your sounds - in ten seconds, you can add a convincing Leslie effect to the simulation.

on 09/26/2007 		I have actually seen websites where guys say that a 5watt practice amp is too loud for their apartment. Many have built
simple 1 watt tube amps using a 12AX7 as a output tube. WHY?!!
600 bucks for a low watt tube kit, or 300 bucks for Guitar Rig
and a set of Headphones? You decide. For the most part I still prefer running my Strat threw my real Tweed Deluxe on stage. Emulators are fun at home for recording but soundcards and computers are a pain to deal with on stage. Besides if you try to pull a Hendrix or a Townsend and smash in your speaker grill with your guitar its not as fun with a computer monitor.
Can't do that with a cab simulator! trust me I tried it with my fake Gibson
