About the Library
Our Riffage: Metal library has been a runaway hit, so we’re back with more ultra-realistic, production-ready guitar loops!
Riffage: Hard Rock gets you to a tight, driving rhythm guitar part with a killer tone crazy fast, all while giving you incredible realism. Meet every kind of professional demand, from rock band tracks to TV underscore to video game scoring, with ease and efficiency. It’s the perfect rhythm companion to our Shreddage series of electric guitars and basses.
In creating this comprehensive collection of 299 loops, we aimed squarely at a hard rock sound in the style of iconic, high-energy bands like AC/DC, Guns N’ Roses, Aerosmith, ZZ Top and others. Patrick Windsor, who also recorded Riffage: Metal, delivered full throttle rhythms and intricate licks on a Gibson Les Paul Classic Custom. Separate DI and amp signals were recorded for ultimate flexibility to let you dial in the perfect tone or get a great sound right away.
We’ve given you everything you need to construct a complete guitar part in a matter of minutes: driving riffs and sizzling licks, simple bread-and-butter rhythms, and a variety of phrase endings. Every loop can be played in every key and locks to nearly any tempo without artifacts, giving you maximum adaptability.

A Tone That's Ready to Rock
Riffage: Hard Rock was recorded with an amped signal for a killer hard rock tone right out of the box, which you can shape quickly to your taste by tweaking the Tone dial on the main page or the balance of the DI and amped signals on the Console page. You can also put together your own tone from a full array of cabinets, pedals, amps, and tones on the Console page, or send the DI signal to an amp sim to fully customize your sound!
Riffage: Hard Rock is designed to make producing professional, authentic sounding hard rock rhythms as effortless as possible. Fit it right into an existing mix or be inspired to write something new. Its amazing performance, realism, tone, and efficiency make it the perfect partner for any hard rock productions.
Console: Modular FX Rack and Mixer
Console is our mixer, modular effects rack, and pedal board, designed to give you full control over your virtual guitar tone. Unlike our previous FX racks, which were limited to a small amount of preset modules, Console gives you 30 effects to choose from!
These include multiple EQs (digital and analog-style), compressors, spatial FX, modulation FX, amps, distortion pedals, reverbs, and a selection of over 30 custom cabinet IRs recorded just for Shreddage 3! These cabs cover all the most important sounds you would want, with both dynamic & condenser mics in multiple positions plus a ribbon mic for certain models.
Using Console, you can easily save and load FX chains or presets between projects or even different Impact Soundworks products. It also allows you to mix and blend between channels, with custom inserts on each if you’d like.
