Native Instruments today announced GUITAR RIG 5 PRO, the next generation of its versatile effects studio. The new version expands the comprehensive feature set of the software with additional amplifiers and effects, advanced speaker emulation, and various new creative features that make GUITAR RIG even more powerful both for studio production and live performance.
In a further addition to its carefully selected arsenal of authentically modeled guitar amplifiers, GUITAR RIG 5 introduces the new "Van51" and "HotSolo+" models, adding two distinctive flavors of heavily overdriven amplification for intense solos and heavy riffs. The comprehensive collection of effects in GUITAR RIG is expanded with six new components – including an additional classic compressor model, the versatile "vintage verb" with various plate and spring emulations, a compact studio-grade convolution reverb based on the acclaimed REFLEKTOR, an analog-modeled 8-band filterbank, the new "stereo tune" chorus, and the unique "Resochord" harmonizer.

Introducing the new Vocal Allstar Series, a groundbreaking new series from Prime Loops, which will challenge the concept of how music is made and change the sound library industry forever. For the first time you can buy a 100% royalty free song complete with vocals which can be re-worked and released as your own.
Each Vocal Allstar kit comes with one fully arranged and pre-mastered mix of a song including vocal hooks. Each part of the song also comes as remixable loops, sounds and stems (e.g. separated synth, bass, drum beats, orchestra tracks and more), providing endless creativity and inspiration. Whether you are a music producer, rapper, MC or vocalist you can simply use the pre-made, full-length song with chorus and add you own vocal verses or chose to get creative and start chopping up and remixing sounds to create your own unique track.
