Line 6 tone has been used on countless hit recordings and by hundreds of thousands of guitarists the world over. Now GuitarPort brings this world class tone from the greatest studios to your desktop. Ten impeccable amp models, based on tone classics like a '53 Fender Wide Panel Deluxe or a '94 Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, cover a huge spectrum of inspiring tone.
There's more to GuitarPort XT than just great tone. GuitarPort's built-in audio player lets you jam along with CDs and MP3s, but that's just the beginning. The optional GuitarPort Online service brings you hundreds of killer tracks recorded in the world's top studios, and not just with anonymous studio musicians, either. Imagine playing Hendrix tunes with original Band of Gypsies members Billy Cox and Buddy Miles, tracked in New York with Eddie Kramer himself at the board. Or Stevie Ray Vaughan tunes along with Double Trouble. From guitar classics complete with tabulature and tones to original compositions created expressly for GuitarPort by some of the world's great musicians, a membership in GuitarPort Online makes sure that you always have somebody to play with.
GuitarPort XT includes a built-in chromatic tuner, an intelligent hum reducer, looping, and half speed playback for slowing down tracks without changing pitch. Selected tracks also include lead sheets and tabulature. Join GuitarPort Online and you'll also get Chord of the Week, Lick of the Week, and your own Tone Locker. In addition, GuitarPort Online hosts a thriving online community that includes discussion groups, tons of tones, plus an ever-expanding library of incredible music.
