Guitarix can't replace Rakarrack and to be fair, Rakarrack can't replace
Guitarix, OTOH simply using Fon's Jconvolver + some distortion might be
near to be able to replace Guitarix, but it still won't replace
Rakarrack.
Rakarrack can be used for professional sounding Hardrock guitars in the
style of the 80s, IMO it's nearly possible to reproduce the genius sound
of LPs like "I against I" from the Bad Brains, just by playing the
guitar to the mixing console, without an guitar amp, when using
Rakarrack. Well, 70s and ex 80s style IMO can't be emulated good by
software effects.

2 cents,
