Guitar..check. Audio interface..check. Computer..check.
A vast array of amps and effects to play with..let us help you out there with some a Guitar VST or two to keep you going. Oh, and did we mention that they're free? You might think it odd that a musical instrument retailer would point you in the direction of free stuff, but here at Dawsons Music we try to be a helpful bunch. At the end of the day, we're all musicians too (with a fair few divas). Addictive keys vst free.
Moving back to the FREE element of these guitar VST plugins, we know that there are vast libraries to explore. Unfortunately, this can make it all the more daunting to find one that you can get stuck into. Therefore, we've picked some that we hope will get you up and running in no time.
What does VST mean?
In short, Virtual Studio Technology (VST) is an audio plug-in that uses digital signal processing to simulate traditional studio hardware. From recreations of vintage analogue channel strips, renditions of prized microphones, from classic guitar stompboxes to modern-day tube amp behemoths, and a smorgasbord synths, there is a VST to match pretty much every audiophile's desires.
Using your digital audio workstation (DAW) of choice or standalone VST-hosting software such as Cantabile Lite or VSTHost, you can load up a graphical user interface (GUI) representation of the plugin and tinker with settings. With such a competitive market across both commercial and non-commercial VSTs, the standard of quality is high. Naturally, the beefier the plugin then the greater the computer processing power that you're going to need to minimise latency. Unless you're planning on crafting your magnum opus with unlimited tracks that all require unique plugins to establish your sonic masterpiece, you should be fine.

Digital Audio Workstations (DAWs)
For those who may be wondering what DAWs are out there, then if you're just getting off the ground you can't go wrong with something like Audacity. Getting your bearings with regard to working out how to get a signal from your guitar through your interface into your DAW can be tricky. However, Audacity is about as easy as it gets, offering the basics for you to get up and running.
However, many audio interfaces such as those provided by Focusrite, Native Instruments, and Presonus are all supplied with DAWs to get you up and running in a seamless fashion.

BONUS: 7. Ignite Amps - Emissary
The Emissary from Ignite Amps is a digital emulation of its hardware cousin, which was built for Ryan Huthnance (ludicrously talented guitarist who is in more bands than is sensible).
