Waves GTR Native

GTR Native description:

First, record your guitar parts with GTR, the award-winning virtual guitar amp and effects system developed in association with Paul Reed Smith and PRS Guitars. GTR puts the world's best amps, cabinets, microphones, and effects in your hands.

Like all of Waves acclaimed plug-ins, Waves GTR was designed to provide recording professionals with a level of sound quality and performance previously unattainable in software.

Waves’ goal wasn’t to offer just another substitute for real amps and effects, but to create a tool engineers and producers could use as their first choice, with no excuses. It was also crucial that Waves GTR satisfy session guitarists accustomed to the very best in tone and feel.

The first step was the development of an entirely new, proprietary sampling method for guitar amps, cabinets, microphone placement and effects which produces tones of unmatched realism.

Next, the amp and effects plug-ins were developed independently and optimized to meet professional requirements for mono and stereo recording (including dual amp and dual cabinet options), MIDI control, and routing flexibility.

Finally, Waves teamed with Paul Reed Smith Guitars to refine the system’s tonal options, improve user efficiency, and to create a hardware interface that would deliver a superior input signal.

Some Features of Waves GTR include:

• Sample Rate Support: 44.1-96Khz (G5 is needed for 96Khz amp operation)
• Amps, Cabinets and Effects Models
