Native Instruments have announced Guitar Rig 2, with this great looking controller. Explains why IK Multimedia resorted to rough birds to promote their mingin' purple Amplitube controller.

Dunno man, everything looks kinda weak compared to TCs G-system...
The new Guitar rig looks awesome. As far as it not comparing to G-system, I hope he means looks alone.
G-System does not allow for PC based recording, or applying the patches to computer based tracks. G system does not have a looper, much less an unlimited one that allows for 99 layered tracks. For that matter, G-System has an MSRP of $1,900 compared to Guitar Rig's $579 price tag. Also, turning on G-systems "Distortion" setting isn't quite the same as choosing a Pro-Co Rat or TS-9.
would it be too much to ask a company to make a neat stripped down and programble foot controller like that that DOESNT work as a audio interface? I am sick of spaceship armada foot controllers when all i need is one expression pedal and 5-6 assignable cc controllers.
Ummm, Prof, why don't you just use the 6 assignable cc controllers and one experession pedal and ignore the audio interface?? Seriously.... How hard is that?
You're the same guy who complains about the extra cigarette lighters they put in cars nowadays.... Aren't you??
FYI, TC seels what you're looking for, Vai uses one. About 2 grand. Personally, I'd be willing to put up with an audio interface I don't need.
