Best value: Excellent
The installation is done it without problems?
All easy. Cons by the authorization system online is silly, productive and cons: it does not prevent the pirate version to move and work very well and is ch ** people who bought the software. Band chitterlings, if you spend more time developing and less time to protect, you would sell more.

Have you experienced any incompatibilities?
Oddly, some versions of AmpliTube not recognize my old sound card Hoontech, but this one is OK.

The general configuration is easy?
Config is installed, it allows, it indicates the input and output and play. Simpler than the real thing!

The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
What manual? Did you read the manual dual tone correct?

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

What is the configuration of your computer? (Motherboard / CPU / Ram / Disk / sound card ..)
AMD Athlon 2.8GHz 2GB RAM running XP and good old Hoontech who follows me for 8 years.

The software works he correctly on this configuration?
Excellent. Zero latency, zero bug below three instances running simultaneously in SX3, and as I play alone and only have two hands it's good enough for me.

What performance? (If quantifiable)
Compared to Guitar Rig 3 is less flexible and less configurable but I like much the sound that I find most "raw", less clean, closer to what I really get with an amp ... on the other hand, just like the review says below, I find the clean sounds great especially with lots of strange effects that sound really good but distos softies and I use Amplitube for my Fender overdrive.

This software + hardware is stable?
No problemo

OVERALL OPINION

For how long have you been using it?
Two weeks, so I tried to amp simulators (I bought Guitar Rig 1 and ReValver when it came out) that my opinion seems stable ;-)

What thing do you like most/least about it?
I love the clean sounds. Really. The sound of thunder delays and reverbs as well, but I like the stuff of space that sound is not digital so it can not be for all guitarists. For cons, I do not use it for distos, it is too soft knee (I know it's strange but true). I also like Amplitube Fender, I use both in X-Gear and then beats it.

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Excellent, simply, 170 euros is the price of a good distortion pedal, guys. And in his clear, ringing this simulator qussi although amplification system ten times more expensive, at least under the conditions of my home studio where I use them.

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
YES, YES, YES!
