NATIVE INSTRUMENTS is excited to announce that the GUITAR RIG software 1.2 is now available. The free update adds four more stomp boxes to the guitarists arsenal, all painstakingly modelled after popular real world units.

- "Fuzz Ace" (fuzz pedal based on Arbiter Fuzz Face)
- "Big Fuzz" (fuzz pedal based on Electro Harmonix Big Muff)
- "Cat" (distortion pedal based on ProCo Rat)
- "Demon Distortion" (distortion pedal based on MXR Dime Distortion)
- "Gratifier" amp now has 20 dB more gain
- "Volume Learn" function for automatic input level adjustment
- faster preset switching
- now also works as MFX (Music Effect) in AU-compatible host applications
- more than 50 additional presets which make use of the new components
- various minor improvements, cosmetic changes and fixes

The 1.2 update for Windows and Mac is now available as a free download for all registered GUITAR RIG users on the NI website.
