The Loop Machine is another unrivalled feature of GUITAR RIG 2 that you will not find in any comparable solution.
This efficient tool allows you to record, layer, loop and playback riffs, licks, grooves and bass lines enabling the creation of dense guitar and bass patterns or to accompany yourself on-the-fly. Loops can be synchronized to the tempo of your host application (sequencer) or to a metronome.
An example for practical use: First, you play four bars of rhythm guitar, after that you play a lead guitar, then some additional harmonies/chords and then some rhythmic slides etc…
The Loop Machine connects the best features of renowned originals with many new features. The loop duration is only limited by the size of your hard disc – theoretically you can layer loops for hours. A total of up to 99 phrases is possible.
Other powerful features
You can export the complete recording as well as every single individual layer - for using the best licks only or for re-arrangement in a sequencer for example.
With Loop Machine's multiple undo feature poorly played licks can be erased.
Additionally, you can layer a longer loop on top of a shorter one, an 8 bar solo guitar on top of a 4 bar lick for example.
Of course, the start and overdub buttons (and other parameters) can be controlled with the foot-controller – to keep your hands free for playing.
