HIVE

Heyya! I have Guitar Rig yup. But if you don't have a good sound drive you'll need a external device for that. Iirc, you had bought one in these past months though, so GR would help you out. My own guitar isn't a very quality one so my pickups could give better sound too. I really don't remember what presets I used but maybe I can check it now.

Seems like I have to re setup GR again since I didn't, after the re formatting of my laptop. I cant see the presets I'll check again once I do it.

Hey, well, I'm linking my guitar through Focusrite and then I'm setting the Focusrite in the program for input and output.

That's the way. The sound I got from most of the presets were very digital sounding and unnatural. When I shredded they started scrambling together and the sound was a disaster, so I searched through many of them to get at least a bit of a decent sound.

Oh, so it's as far as the program can go?
Yeah, that's what I did too. I hope I'll be able to find some on the net too.
Reverb is important for solo and so is delay but the latter is optional.

Because I saw people on YT which had their guitars sound amazing:

These sound pretty hot:

I still think I need another external audio interface specially for guitars.

Most of them sound good, maybe it is because of the jack I was using or not enough mixing, or some other stuff, but my distortions never did give a satisfying tone

I think it might have something to do with the guitar, I think:
