Hi Guys

I have mainly been using my PODHD500 recently (but not for recording). So I am wondering what new plugins I could be looking for - I was thinking of giving guitar rig 5 a go as seems to have good reviews - but is there anything similar on the market I should be consdering as well.

I would really like something I can use for recording bass, acoustic, vocals and electric all in one if possible.

Also I am still using ezdrummer for drums - is this still the best one out there or are there better?

Any advice on what you guys are using would be great!

Hi Olly, Great subject btw and good question there are some really good virtual guitar amps on the market and I tried guitar rig demo when researching what plugin to use for my guitar amp emulator.

After much researching, I settled on Amplitube Max which is a fantastic amp plugin which gives much flexibility to mold your sound via amps, stomp boxes, mics, recording rooms, etc.

I find that recording with AmpliTube is very easy and gives a lot of versatility and choice so you can't fail to get the sound that you are looking for. I record in the box using Ableton live as my DAW and have recently finished my album "Visitations" using Amplitube as my go to amp plugin.

I also used EZdrummer 2 on the album which I think is a fantastic drum plugin, if you want to check the album out and hear the plugins in action you can click the link below for my Soundcloud page, cheers.

Hi, everyone, really happy to be a part of this forum I looked around a few forums before joining and something about this one seemed to appeal to me so I'm looking forward to sharing info with some like-minded people. My name is Leslie Johnson but everyone just calls me Les.

I hope that you like my screen name Leszeppelin named after one of the greatest rock bands of all time Led Zeppelin IMO, I've been playing for quite some years now and would say that after years of noodling and playing cover songs I got the songwriting bug about three or four years ago and recently finished writing/creating an album called "Visitations" which has an alien theme you can check it out below on my new YT channel that I am currently working on.

I also have the album on my Soundcloud page.
