Don’t miss out on the CycleOn
I have reported on the CycleOn but I believe it is worthwhile mentioning agian
CycleOn is fully compatible with the Record + Reason 5 duo package. This video describes a method of modifying the combinator patches to take advantage of the new Dr.OctoRex loop player. Eight pairs of loops can be blended and tweaked by adjusting the mod wheel.

More guitar realted stuff – Check out Syntar
Syntar is a Vst Instrument (or more a Rompler with some additional effects) which produces Sitar-like sounds.
I’m not a Sitar expert but still it does sound nice to me – I can see some potential there (ie. layering it with a guitar).
Small valuable plugin – probably the best you can get for free

Keith McMillen introduces StringPort
The StringPort very carefully processes, converts and conveys to the computer the polyphonic audio from industry-standard hexaphonic pickups (like the GK, Graph Tech, Zeta and RMC models) through high speed USB2. We have written custom drivers with extremely low latencies and all our applications take full advantage of multi-threading and multiple cores. High resolution (24bit) converters and impeccable design provide greater than 92 dB SNR from analog in to analog out.
But what really makes StringPort the last string/synth/processor device we will ever need is the powerful suite of software for use with the StringPort Hardware. The suite is comprised of 24 applications, including fast and accurate Analysis (for converting every little nuance of your performance into control data), powerful Polyphonic FX Processing (Wave Guide, PolyFuzz, Phase Vocoder, SMACK), a versatile VST FX Wall (perfect for all those plug-ins you’ve been collecting), a side of Synthesis (Classic FM and direct support for the world-famous Synful synthesizer), a friendly and useful Notation application (to capture data for output to your favorite music notation software), and MIDI Out to integrate StringPort into your existing MIDI world.
