Why would you want built in fx and modeling when there's so many great free ones available?

LePou, Nick Crow Labs, TSE for amps, Kjaerhus and Variety of Sound for fx to start with to name a few.

Mixcraft Pro is only $80 so i'm just seeing what is around in the same price range as reaper. It is nice to have something out of the box that has room adjustments, materials, mic placement, etc. Also, all the free amp fx I could still use. I have played with a few LePou ones.
Amps:
Mesa Mark V
JVM 210H
Blackstar HT-100
Blackstar Ht-5
Peavey Ultra 60
Cabs:
JCM 900 1960a
Marshall Mode 4 280
Mesa Widebody 1x12
Guitars:
2011 Les Paul Traditional Plus
2005 Les Paul Studio
2004 Ibanez RG470 MIJ
