Critic Reviews

Avid Pro Tools + Eleven Rack review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

Avid's Eleven Rack, bundled with Pro Tools 10, is a versatile powerhouse for guitarists, offering a broad array of tones and dynamic responsiveness akin to a real amp. Its integration as an audio and MIDI interface makes it a robust recording tool, with ample connectivity and a user-friendly design. The unit's ability to re-amp and its comprehensive range of amp models and effects make it ideal for studio and stage settings. However, the limitation of using either an expression pedal or a footswitch at any one time might deter some live performers. Overall, a solid choice for those seeking a comprehensive recording solution.

Quality box

This was killer when it came out and it’s great quality and a great addition for the money these days, but I don’t think it’s the best on the market anymore. Well worth the money.

stormy_weather

Saved me a few thousand...

Rack, you are a rack. Orange, you are orange. Like a rack, which you are. Rack... It sounds phenomenal, takes third party controllers like a champ, slaves extremely well to midi signals, has official and javahacked uploaders and downloaders. Best of all, THE SOUND! Okay, anyone who knows me, knows I'm MEGA picky about amps and pedals. I have some sounds in mind and to the wind with everything if I have to drop some real money for it. Most multis have their "Close enough" sounding patches. This is the one device that not only hit it spot on, but could be adjusted to sound like a slightly more clear version. I'm a big fan of Mesa/boogie Engineering Rectifier amps and some older clear toned amps for pedals, this thing captured it and got it right! You can even mic your own sounds and use the rack as a Audio Interface if needed. Plus if you go big, you're only toting the guitar, rack and a 3rd party pedalboard controller (Assuming you use more than one patch) and you're set! Plug into a PA and you're done. :D Only effect it lacks is pitch bending, so plug a modded whammy into the effects loop and you are set. Gave up a bunch of pedals after buying this. I simply didn't need them anymore. That's how great this rack is. It's also stupid-simple to work with, like many things in my studio.

richard_grosser

Brilliant!

Definitely, a great milestone effects modeller, for the price. Although, there are some tones that could be improved upon and it's a pity that AVID haven't upped -the-ante. Especially, in the quality in the further development of their own plugins, to take make it spectacular! Although, creating your own with the 'Eleven Rack Editor' is the next best thing. http://connect.avid.com/eleven-rack-editor.html :-R

"What this does is deals with anything that has to do with his live sound. That is for monitoring; that's for Joey Kramer. Joey doesn't want to hear all the delays and the effects, he just wants a straight dry signal. So this is a dialed-in Vox, a real nice crunchy Vox sound is what he hears in his ears. So that works out really well for Joey," says Joe Perry's guitar tech.
