Guitar Rig is an amp and effects modeling software package developed by Native Instruments. The software can function either as a standalone application, or as a plug-in for other software. It was originally released in 2004.

Overview

The Guitar Rig environment is a modular system, providing capabilities for multiple amplifiers, effects pedals and rack mountedhardware. Primarily designed for electric guitar and bass, the software uses amplifier modeling to allow real-timedigital signal processing in both standalone and DAW environments via plug-in (VST/DXi/RTAS/AU).[1][2] The software simulates a number of devices such as preamplifiers, cabinets and microphones under pseudonyms (such as renaming the Shure SM57 as the 'Dynamic 57').

The system allows customisation of module parameters – either through manipulation of the graphical interface, use of a MIDI controller or employment of the RigKontrol foot control pedal. Settings can be saved as presets and exported and shared with other users. Version 3 included a redesigned interface to allow improved preset categorisation and customised interfaces for 'live' use.[3]

Rig Kontrol

The Rig Kontrol is a foot-operated USB and MIDI controller. It contains an audio interface and DI box,[4] allowing integration with live sound environments.

The device can operate Guitar Rig using eight switches and an expression pedal. Earlier versions of the device contained only six switches and an expression pedal, and did not support interfacing functionality.[5]

History

Versions 1-2 (2004-2006)

Guitar Rig was first released on both macOS & Windows in September 2004. At this time, it was a hardware/software hybrid system, with the Rig Kontrol hardware preamp and foot controller feeding into the software. The software featured a drag-and-drop interface and a selection of 3 tube amplifier emulations (some with multiple preamp variations).[1][6]

Version 2 of the software, released in February 2006, added a number of additional amp options (including the software's first bass amps), added a new looping feature, and expanded the Rig Kontrol hardware.[7]

Versions 3-5 (2007-2019)

Guitar Rig 3, released in December 2007, included the option to purchase the software independently of the hardware. The updated software also featured a streamlined view dedicated to live performances.[4][8] Before version 3 was released, the graphical user interface simulated amplifier logos and design construction; however, version 3, this was replaced with a generic name.[8]

Released in October 2009, Guitar Rig version 4 introduced improved cabinet and microphone modeling software, alongside the 'Control Room' feature, which allowed for greater customisation of preamp, cabinet and microphone combinations.[9][2]

Announced in August 2011 and released in September 2011, version 5 of the software included an expanded version of the Control Room feature, and introduced the ability to perform sidechaining within the software.[10][11]

Version 6 (2020-present)

Version 6 of Guitar Rig, announced in September 2020 and released on October 1, 2020, was the first major update for the software since 2011. This new version included a redesigned user interface, 'Intelligent Circuit Modelling' (an amp reproduction system based on machine learning), 3 new amp options (including 1 new bass amp), and additional effects.[12][13]

You don't say what version of Studio One? In v2 you need at least Producer to use 3rd party plug-ins, v3 you must have Pro or purchase an add-on to Artist for like $100 bucks.

I have studio one producer.. sorry if I didn't mentioned earlier. so.. I guess you must use it as a plugin? I have tried to find it on the list of instruments and plugins but it won't show up.
thanks

Yes, I use it as a plug-in.
Things to check:
1. Make sure the 'Guitar Rig 5.dll' is in < C:Program FilesVstplugins > (Windows 7 for me...) It doesn't HAVE to be in this folder, you can point Studio One to alternate locations too.
2. Go to the menu at the top called 'Studio One', then 'Options...'. Click the 'Locations' icon, then the 'VST Plug-Ins tab and make sure the above directory is there.
3. If those are all set, somewhere there is an option to 're-scan' your plug-ins - I forget where at the moment, sorry.
4. If all of THAT is set, then to use it as a plug-in, go to the mixing channel where you want to use it, click the + to add an insert, and it should show up in that list. It has a little 'FX/VST' icons near the bottom of my list. You can also use the 'Browse' (activated in the lower right corner of Studio One) to find it.
That's about all I can remember off the top of my head. There are guys on here a LOT more knowledgeable than me, hopefully one of them will chime in with more trouble shooting tips if this doesn't get you going....

IIRC Guitar Rig needs to be run in stand-alone mode before using as a VST. While it is open you should set all of your options and make sure you get it registered correctly.
I think most NI plugs (including Maschine) need to be run outside of your DAW host (outside meaning standalone). If you right-click the .exe file you found and pick Run as Administrator you should be able to get it up and running.

No, this is not required. The plugins are registered through the Service Center and don't need to be run standalone first. (Komplete 10 Ultimate owner here, I have literally never started anything in the NI lineup in standalone mode, everything works normally as a plugin, including Guitar Rig.)

I think you missed something on the install but probably more likely it put the .dll in a directory that is not in your Studio On scan path.
Search for it.
Here is a great local search tool.

so does it has to be only the .dll file that must be put in a search path with studio one? or do you also have to put the .vst files also on a path?.

GuitarRig5.dll
Assuming, as I don't have it installed on my computer but the .dll file is the VST.
You could also search for GuitarRig*.dll
