In the past, I would spend hours trying to make other guitar sample sets sound realistic. I tried some that sounded decent, but they were lacking the "oomph" of today's rock, and I still had to fight to keep them from sounding synthesized. Enter Ministry of Rock. Rythmn guitar? Instantly realistic chords that flow together almost seamlessly, with meaty muted chunks. Solos? Great sounding ones can be pieced together with minimal effort. It's like a dream.Drums (especially the Ludwig set) are powerful and deep. And as for the basses... well, if there's anything that MoR has taught me, it's that there's a HUGE difference between a recorded bass, and a bass that's been recorded (and played!) properly. The basses offer nearly as much flexibility as the solo guitars, and have more than enough energy to hold their own.I haven't gotten too much into the included acoustic, but from fooling around with it on the keyboard, it seems extremely playable, with an absolutely massive number of chord variations (flats, sharps, etc). It's chords only, but Gypsy has a plucked version that matches up nicely, if you find it necessary.If there's one thing I have to complain about (and it's more of a minor quibble), it's that the guitar chords are limited to a single range of tuning on the guitar. I would have liked to have had some extra samples with the guitar detuned a bit, for some lower-range sounds.As the reviewer below mentioned, it does require a seperately purchased iLok key (which can store a hundred or so registration codes), but that comes with benefits of it's own, such a license portability. So it's either a pro, or a con, depending on how you look at it. I run it at home as well as work, so it's a great bonus for me.All that aside though, Ministry of Rock is definitely my new sample set of choice.

I got this pack because I was looking for a good guitar VST, specifically distorted sounds. After checking the demos out, i was impressed, and the inclusion of drums and basses was the icing on the cake.After finally using the product, I'm extremely happy with the quality of the sounds, but disappointed that the sounds are more limited then the product makes them seem. The sounds are hot and heavy, and really only work in the heavier rock and heavy metal applications. If you want to use the guitars in tamer stuff, prepare to do lots of tweaking... the drums themself are extremely heavy and limited in their musical use. The 5 basses almost all sound the same (though they sound great), and theres only 2 clean guitar sounds as well, an acoustic and a clean electric. i was expecting quite a few more clean electrics but they are all distorted.Still, they sound fantastic, and the keyswitching is awesome. the interface is powerful for editting, as well as easy to use. Just beware that this is truly a pack for rockers only. and I mean heavy rockers. you'll have a hard time getting these sounds to work in any other genre other then hard rock or metal.
