First impressions
It looks different - but then, we've been used to GR5 for a long time, so I guess that;s to be expected.
Main thing is it just sounds better and responds better. GR5 always felt a bit artificial, brittle if you will. 6 sounds more lifelike.
The tuner is better as well, much better, esp for bass.
But where GR6 shines, IMO, is the effects. I love the way that NI have included all their standalone effects like Flair, Choral etc and a shed load of others into the rack. Much like IK do for Amplitube. Between the two products, I can get some really great sounds happening...but if I'm honest, most of the heavy liftin, amp-wise, is done in Amplitube...with a fair bit of processing with GR6. For example, the DMM model in GR6 is really good, IMO. I might even prefer it to Echoboy.

Yes, I like it.
Thanks, chaps. I'm musing over whether to go for the bundle. Kontakt is something I'd planned for in the future.

I'm seeing ads for some SDX and EZX expansions being on offer at the moment. Any recommendations? I've already got Decades, Death & Darkness and Fields of Rock which I can recommend, except those particular SDXs aren't on offer.
Btw. It was very tricky composing this post because autocorrect kept changing SDX and EZX to SEX, which would have given entirely the wrong impression.
Verdict so far on my upgrade to 13 ultimate - it's great. The new instruments are all neat, and have good interfaces. I cant quite suss Butch Vig Drums yet, but it sure sounds good.
Stradivari violin sounds amazing. Not sure where I will use it though!
The FX units are very good too. PHasis, Raum, Flair, Choral all sound great. Good reverbs too.
The Toontrack ones I use most often are:
