    Installation is quick, but the pain is at the Chill autorizations
    software challenge-response:
    I install and j'authorize first time OK
    I plant my system and I have réinstaller.OK
    I will ask a second registration key and I learn that I
    have more than a little wild and then I'm good to throw my CD in the
    poubelle.Pas OK at all.
    Dismal when most publishers have begun to key iLock
    or even a key owner, which in both cases can
    sell its plug or keep more reliably over the
    configuration changes (kind of RAM I add to the total renewal of

    SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

    Sounds clear, untapped.
    One has the impression that the level of my strat76 potentiometer is
    blocked at mid-parcours.Aucune fishing, impossible to find the sound
    Dire Straits, nor even to sound warm.
    The rhythms are feeble and when triturated sound ca becomes artificial,
    a peak.

    Sounds crunch: Means in a rhythmic way British rock mix
    Unusable in the blues, it is light years
    of the original amps and it is very far from a pod or Gearbox, eg.

    Distorted sounds: Good style though Satriani have trouble tapping sound.
    Bad Queen in the genre, we do not find the sound of a Gibson
    (My Paul is the latest, I will, but it still sounds good!)
    Here's a little gadget.

    Heavy sounds: it depends on the color you want.
    it can go on the metal but you have to grind it sounds good, and use
    other plug because the stomps are a little gadget.

    I do not understand what they take in Ik, for the one foreshadowed a great result.
    In comparison, the Line6 Gearbox explodes, even if it is almost double gold version,
    and it is similar to Guitar Rig2, maybe a little less good.
    It's better than an onboard multi-effects like zoom portable PS02
    but it is far below a pedal 400Eu or even a Pod XT Pod1.
    In fact there has been little progress in relation to AmpliTube 1, as it
    additions are mainly but not terrible, especially the effects.
    What a pity, I hope the Jimi Hendrix version we will prove that the guys who have been in IK precursors can match or even exceed the Gearbox.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I spent 3 months for crushing virtual buttons and I'm not satisfied.
    I thought the first sense of disappointment that I had been trying feverishly
    my new purchase would be forgotten in Bossant above but the problem is at the base of
    treatment.
    I tried GearBox Gold with a friend and I must say that I regret bitterly
    for not seeing that kind.
    And I also regret having sold my Pod XT.
    The only advantage of this plug is that it benefits from the automation and Cubase
    flexibility of computer music that I love in general ..
    and allows to update its VST?
    I hope that IK will wake up because the rest of its VST, Sonic Synth 2 notament
    are good products.
