GUITAR RIG 5 PLAYER is based on the powerful GUITAR RIG 5 PRO, providing you with a straightforward and easy user interface with professional components. The advanced tag-based preset browser makes it easy to find and organize your effect settings. Drag and drop components to the rack to create custom effect chains, and adjust all settings to your needs in no time.
Integrated MIDI Learn and automation tools streamline your workflow, while the Live View is useful for performing. There’s even a range of ‘helper’ tools – a Metronome, two Tapedecks for easy recording and play-along, a Tuner, and a Preset Volume tool with Dry/Wet settings are all at your disposal.

As GUITAR RIG 5 PLAYER is an openly expandable, modular platform – you can fill it with components from the KOMPLETE effects family:
RAMMFIRE, Richard Z. Kruspe's (Rammstein) amp.
TRAKTOR'S 12, performance FX from TRAKTOR PRO.
REFLEKTOR, a highly versatile convolution reverb.
