WAVES LAUNCHES GTR 2.0
— Waves’ popular hardware/software combo adds new range of features including sounds developed with Grammy® winning producer Peter Dennenberg —
WINTER NAMM SHOW, ANAHEIM, CA, January 19, 2006 — Waves, the world’s leading developer of audio signal processing tools, in association with legendary guitar maker Paul Reed Smith, is proud to announce GTR 2.0, the latest version of its award-winning, popular hardware/software system for guitarists. The new release follows the recent testing and certification of Waves GTR for proper operation under Pro Tools® 7.
Powered by the state-of-the-art Waves/PRS Guitar hardware interface, the GTR system puts the world’s best amps, cabinets, microphones and effects right at your fingertips. Since its release last year, Waves GTR has received tremendous praise from critics and customers alike.
For GTR 2.0, Waves’ top engineers went “tone hunting” at Grammy® Award-winning producer Peter Dennenberg’s ACME Recording Studios in Mamaroneck, NY. What they “captured” is a major advance for GTR: The new version features three distinct new amps: Sweet, Cream and Overdrive. It also features seven new cabinets, hand selected and precision mic’d by Dennenberg from his extensive private collection of vintage gear.
GTR 2.0 additionally features an improved guitar tuner with sophisticated tracking that is even more accurate and easier to use.
Last but not least, GTR 2.0 is now compatible with MAC - MOTU MAS host Digital Performer, and Windows Direct X including Cakewalk - Sonar, Sony Media Software - Sound Forge, Vegas, Acid, CD Architect, Magix - Samplitude and Adobe Audition. Waves GTR 2.0 is also compatible with Pro Tools 7 on both Mac® and PC.
