EFFECTS

Pimp Up Your Sound

 

The GUITAR RIG 4 ESSENTIAL software comes with a useful collection of professional effects which can be combined in any order or quantity you desire. Two distortion components, three delay units, four equalizers? No problem!

Every single effect unit has been completely overhauled to provide you with the best imaginable sound quality. What's more, nearly all of GUITAR RIG's components can now be switched to true stereo. Whether you’re playing with two guitars, creating spacey effects in virtual rooms or just processing a stereo signal from your sequencer, true stereo is what you need, and what you get with GUITAR RIG 4.

Distortion and Overdrive

GUITAR RIG 4 provides you with six excellent fuzz, distortion and overdrive units. These components are accurate reproductions of classic hardware devices, and sound just like the originals

Modulation Effects

This section offers you a great collection of modulators that can be be inserted anywhere in your rig: tremolo, octaver, rotating effects, chorus, flanger, and a swirling 70's style phaser.

Modifiers

Synthesizer users know modifiers as "modulators". For the first time, this feature is now available for guitars: GUITAR RIG's modifiers can automatically animate any sound parameter thus generating especially vivid sounds with a live feel. They can even control several parameters at once or be used in multiple instances in the rack – a paradise for sonic experiments. The GUITAR RIG 4 ESSENTIAL software comes with two modifiers:

LFO (low frequency oscillator) with five waveforms – for continuous or arbitrary modulation
Input Level – an envelope follower transforming the volume of the input signal into a control signal, e.g. the louder you play, the more distortion you'd get.

Time-based Effects

Delays and reverbs are the bread and butter of every guitarist's arsenal, which is why we took extra care to deliver the finest selection of virtual delays and reverbs available. Based on award winning NI algorithms, these units will go the distance on any setup. Whether you want to warm up your sound with some spring reverb, or use complex tempo-synced delays, you’ll find your perfect treat in the Reverb and Delay Bank.

Filter Effects

Filtering is one of the most powerful ways to shape your sound, and GUITAR RIG 4 offers several great tools to do it. Choose from an impressive range of filter-based effects, from wahwah's to EQs.


Volume Effects

Volume effects are capable of much more than just simple loudness control! You’ll find a range of tools to dynamically or interactively adjust levels - from Volume Pedal to Noise Gate and Compressor.

Split Module

The Split Module allows you to create parallel (instead of serial) effects chains. This means you can process the split the sound and process it with different effects and then mix the results back together at the end. Serial, parallel, and mixed serial/parallel combinations offer a practically limitless range of possibilities for combining effects, for a truly original sound. The Split Module can be inserted anywhere in the rack.
