[Mike]

Dear friends,

I am looking for a good VST for emulating a great rock guitar, with both clean and distortion effects
Any sugestion would be welcome,

Thank you,

Your question is too vague.
Tell us what DAW you use and what sampler you already have e.g. Kontakt, Giga, HALion, etc.

East West's Ministry of Rock - rocks

but there are other less expensive options if you already have a sampler/player

Thank for you answer Ray,

Yes, I have seen EW Ministry of Rock, and it definitly rocks, however it is a bit expensive,

I have Kontakt and Sibelius, is there any less expensive solution that would apply for me ?

Thank you in advance for your help on this subject.

Regards,

Mike

No doubt Quantum Leap's Ministry of Rock is the best of its kind. However its huge, and consumes a lot of memory while functioning.
A more cheaper and equally effective solution (takes much less memory) would be - using ReFX Slayer2 to generate the electric guitar sound, with Native Instruments Guitar Rig, as an effects device to create the distortion onto it. Amplitube Metal would also help.

As for example, check out my composed rock instrumental 'escape velocity' , on my profile.
