You can select between 9 different guitars and two different string types, and when playing the notes on a keyboard, the plugin will detect those notes and show them on the virtual fretboard.
You can switch between legato and sustain, adjust palm mutes and harmonics (you can play harmonics by holding down a key on your keyboard), as well as the vibrato. Lastly, you can change the tone and add reverb!Ĭheck it out here: Spicy Guitar. The newly released version of Guitar Rig (Guitar Rig 6) comes with a whole new-looking user interface as well as some cool improvements over the previous Guitar Rig 5 and of course, there’s a stripped down version of this software for you to try out for free that lasts forever, it’s not a free 14-day trial or anything! These are only amp simulation plugins and not strictly guitar VSTs (Guitar simulations or sample libraries) and all of them sound fantastic (yes, I tried them all!).
