Guitar amp 2 free edition is a virtual rack of effects and amplier for guitar and bass, ideal for newcomers to the world of music, but also for the more experienced. GA2FE is essential but at the same time you can get very different sounds. It is possible to use it in stand alone or under VST host.

The VST Amp Rack includes seven amp/cab models, covering a wide range of possible tones. Guitar players, myself included, often argue over the tonal merits of real amps relative to virtual ones. But whatever your views on plug-in guitar-amp simulations, you can't deny that they present some very useful possibilities, not all of which are confined to guitars.

So this month we'll explore a few examples of how the VST Amp Rack, which was introduced in Cubase 6, can be put to good use. To use the VST Amp rack for guitar tones, you'll first need to get a DI signal from your guitar into Cubase.

Most modern audio interfaces have an input or two that can work quite happily with a direct guitar-level signal, but if yours doesn't, you'll need a DI box that can send one signal 'thru' to your amp and another to your interface's mic input. You can choose to record this DI signal alongside the output from an amp or hardware modeller, in which case the DI and amp signals should be recorded on separate Cubase tracks, to give you flexibility later. The VST Amp Rack's primary function is, of course, to create some decent guitar tones. You have seven amp and six cabinet choices which, as hinted at by the graphic styling, include models based upon three Fender classics, a couple of Marshalls, a Vox and a Mesa Boogie.

You can combine the different amp and cab types to give you quite a wide range of tonal starting points. All the amps are capable of decent clean tones, but the best choices are probably the Fender- and Vox-based models. For super-clean, back off on the gain settings or, for a bit more twang (via the Tweed amp) or grit (for example, via the Vox amp), start with the gain about halfway and adjust to taste. With a little more gain, or the addition of an overdrive pedal in a pre-effects slot, you can create a range of 'just breaking up' tones — perfect if blues is your thing. The Plexi model can also do this at lower gain settings, while for straight 'rawk', both Plexi models can do the business. For a more saturated overdrive, the Plexi Lead and Diamond (Mesa Boogie) models are your best bet. You also get a decent selection of emulated stomp-box effects that can be placed pre- or post- the amp/cab modelling, a choice of microphone type and position and a 'master' section with EQ, a tuner and master output level control.  In short, for a bundled plug-in this is a pretty decent package!

So that you can hear the differences between the various models, I've created some short audio examples, and these are available via the SOS web site () for you to audition. In addition, there are audio examples to illustrate each of the VST Amp Rack applications described below. Hopefully, listening to these while reading the text will give you a better idea of what can be achieved. For both corrective and creative applications, there's a good selection of virtual stomp boxes.
