What is Reddit's opinion of Guitarix?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

>Some application(s) aimed specifically to guitars. What I need: some app which would be able to record my shitty acoustic guitar (or at least recognize recordings of a one) and which could then through various plugins process the sound so it would sound distorted (read "exactly how I'd like it to sound). So basically, I'm looking for a program(s) which would simulate real electric guitar amp, pedals and effects, preferably at the same time. What program should I use?

Sounds like Guitarix.

>Some application(s) for drums. I am looking to create this traditional drums sound (as opposed to electronic/synthesized drums in DnB or dubstep). Which app would help me here?

Check out DrumGizmo.

Also, I forgot this way... http://guitarix.sourceforge.net/

There's the linux one. Try a USB live boot (with savable changes), should work with a 1/4 to 1/8 adapter functioning as the mic in on the laptop/desktop.

There's, recently, been a surge in amp modelling solutions for Linux. Some of the better ones are Guitarix and Rackarrack

There's also a ton of DAW plugins becoming available, thanks to the LADSPA project.

Well if "pre-amp" means just that you only need to open mixer, unmute microphone input and adjust volume.

If you want more you can use guitar effects processors like guitarix or rakarrack. But you'll need to use Jack audio (your linux distro probably uses pulseaudio by default).

This post can be helpful.

Ohh, and yes, mics will most likely sound like a shit :)

Have a look onto guitarix.

You can just plug your guitar into you mic-in of your pc. The program contains an preamp and several other stuff. It just runs under linux, so you may need to install linux to use it.
