It is necessary to input line-level to the soundcard in order to get the best signal to noise ratio. Even so - you will get more noise than miking up an amp/cabinet and using a mixer to the soundcard.
I use a Focusrite Trackmaster which gives me a little compression if I want it.
The IK Amplitube is great but the amplified noise limits it somewhat.
Dude, this video really isn't showing us how to do it. Flashing from this to that is very confusing for those who are new to this. Is there any vids of people actually doing the process from start to finish? This video seem to geared towards those who already know how to do this somewhat.
@milew666 it's pretty spot on i did this method when i first started out and even if i was a beginner the instructions he gave are simply to easy to follow i can't imagine where you got lost? not trying to be a dick but seriously.
It would only sound like shit if your amp is shit.
If your amp has fuzzing or hissing, the computer will pick up everything it hears. This is a no better way than to record it with a dynamic mic at the front of the amp.
Does anyone know when you use your computer as an amp, is there any lag/latency? Also, does it create those sounds instantly or only after you wait 5 minutes and process the sounds will you get to hear what you just played? I don't have an amp and I'm wondering using my computer as an amp will be okay, someone please respond to this =). Thank you.

does the computer/guitar rig 4 serves already as your amplifier or do you need to have an amplifier to play?? I am very much confused...sorry for my annoying question....and is it okay to plug the guitar directly to the computer?
@DhMlSr yes you can, get a jack-to-mic lead. Plug the lead into your guitar and the mic into the mic input, if you have some speakers plugged in, you will get sound out of that. :)
i "Waves GTR" it turns my computer into an amp with: 30 different amp types from clean-high gain, and i also get 15 effects peddles , and 15 different amp cabinet sounds. its awesome!
@pp99073 Yes when plugged into your oundcard like this it's called latency you will most likely have to step up to a computer interface running ASIO drivers for instance where there is no latency it's caused by your signal having to enter the computer travel through all the circuts and then be sent back out the sound card sometimes you can adjust the buffer to a smaller amount but you may get dropouts and you will still have some level of latency.

Hey dude, i have exactly the same pedal, and i alredy have the plug-converter, but there's a problem when i start to play... the signal comes out with some delay ( "comes out late"), and that makes sound like sh*t. My pc is windows 7, what can i do to solve the problem¿? See ya!

@kaiba34 umm... i ead this somewhere b4, they said this doesn't work 4 windows7. i guess u should make ur hard disk 2 partitions and install it in the 2nd one and then try it.
@kaiba34 because u need to switch it to ASIO in ur sound preferences go to asio4all.com its a free asio u can use that should solve the problem and its not delay its latency and reducing the buffers can help to
@kaiba34 because u need to switch it to ASIO in ur sound preferences go to asio4all.com its a free asio u can use that should solve the problem and its not delay its latency and reducing the buffers can help to
@kaiba34 its your sound card on your computer, i got mine upgraded and now i have no delay with that, on my laptop it has delay... its the quality of the sound card that messes it up.
Hi there, My name is kirk and i belive the problem you have is something called latency! It basicaly means that the signal has been processed slower than what your playing. For a quick fix would be to buy a lightsnake guitar lead, which basically has a circuit buffer stage that corrects your problem. You can buy these of Ebay really cheap. Just type in guitar to usb. Ihope this helped.
you need a sound interface that can process the sound so quickly that delete the latency (that´s how this problem is named), when you use a device like I have mentioned you can hear a real time playing sound =)
@Fukin4off the delay is usually due to low RAM or sound cards settings...software settings...I remember already in windows 98 I fixed such delay problems
@Fukin4off U need to d/l ASIO4ALL. I had the same prob untill I installed this driver now my sound comes out as soon as I pluck the string. Happy days :)
@Fukin4off Look up ASIO drivers. Many sites have a download link. This driver is supposed to connect your guitar directly to the external/internal soundcard unlike the default drivers that microsoft has. If your using audacity or any other DAW software. After installing the ASIO driver you are going to have to change your settings in the software you are using. Good luck.
@Fukin4off its called "latency" and its one of the big problems associated with this method, about 90% of people have it- because the signal isn't completely digital (its going into the line in) your computer has to process it to turn it INTO a digital signal, rather than it already being one.
@InfiniteRhombus I heard there is another cable you can use where it goes into the computer 'digitally' I'm not sure though because I haven't bought one yet. But will this also have latency?
@RyanJRA64Abella theres lots of different ways, but honestly the best way would probably just to spend the 100 dollars and get a dedicated interface specifically for it, they usually dont have latency (as they use USB and convert your guitars signal into a true digital signal instead of just a "mic'd" one)
kaiba34 i have the same brand of your pedal and mine has USB connection for recording editing and more and i must find something that plugs my pedal on my PC through USB and it will sound better but i don't know if i can find it ;/
i want to know of any software that will amp it up too.......at the moment it just sounds crap without the effects but i havn't come across anything that works yet :/
:D you made it in a way that a retard could understand.. gj but is there actually a way to add effects without whammys and that sort of equipment and just the pc?
This is just the dow amature version I used to strart with xDDD , if you guys wanna get pro results, you should invest into extern sound hardware, which nowadays isnt expensive at all!
question: when i plugged my guitar straight to the mic socket.. will it cause delay or some problems with sounds? my friend tested it and he said that the sound is a little bit late
its a bit late because he plugged it into the mic port, not the line in... if u hav a line in port u plug it into that, but if not u can either buy a sound card or just use mic port and deal with the delay and slight distortion of sound...
buy a adapter for your output or head phone jack in your and for a 1/8 inch cable. buy a 1/8 inch cable (with two ends). plug your adapter into the output, your 1/8 inch cable in the adapter, and the other end of the cable in your line- in. then plug your guitar in the input. this is the best way i think.
This is great, but what should i do if want to use my pc and pc speaker as an amp, not for recording but real time playing? I know i need a software like amplitube or guitar rig, i tried to plug a guitar in line ii on a computer with amplitube, but i hardly got any sound from it. What should i do?
@jakeyboy909 Yes, into the "audio in", but since you arent pluging it into a mixer or an external soundcard it is very hard to get effects to go in the sound when the guitar sound is outputted.
you have to have some sort of processor. if you have an amp just run it out of the head phone out and then into the pc. no amp? hack a guitar cable and splice rca jacks on 1 end and plug that into the phono in on a stereo and then out of the head phone jacks into your pc.
Sure you can connect your guitar in this way, but it will never sound (static noise) better, cause a guitar has NO line-level. The imopedance doesn't match thus it sounds crappy,
The only way to get a better sound, buy (or try) Amplitube, GearBox,GTR2....And after that buy a new (better) soundcard. Then you will hear the difference.
I use an Line6 POD XT Live with USB into PC. Then I can record with any Programm/DAW. I use Reaper. When going with USB I have to use a VST-Plugin. I use Amplitube. So u can re-amp your guitar recording thus you have the pure, clean Guitarsound.
thx mate, ill try the program, but i managed luckly to get a lot better adapter so i now get really clean sound (and it costed me something about 0.5e) and GTR4 has some noise reductors so it works real great and really cheap.
What do you mean "0.5e"? 50cents? Can you tell which interface you got?
Oh, GTR4 is fine too! I didn't check it out. I viewed some manufaturers videos and it sounded very good. Paul Reed Smith was involved in the Design of mic&cabinet emulation. But Waves isn't known to be inexpensive.
yeap, 50 cents. ive done just some simple steps, bought a good adapter, guitar jack to 3.5mm that doesnt have to much free space inside so u dont collect too much static noise(youll always have it but u can put it really low). i connected it directly to the sound card without any pre-amp, and i needed a program called ASIO4ALL (free) to i can manually control bitrate i some other stuff so i could get instant reaction from computer (no delay). and thats it!
installed gt4 (pirate version) on vista if u asked for that. if for some reason u still have problem with static noise (it was the biggest problem for me), it has some noise reductors who can work really great in some effects (in some not so good but does the job)
With Interface I mean a professional-Soundcard with Impedance adaptor.A normal Soundcard has a Input Impedance of 2KOhms.A Guitar has a Impedance of 15KOhms. That doesn't match! You will hear static, noise and it will sound "wrong". When you are happy with this sound you will be very surprised when you hear it with a corrcet setup.
I have a Creative X-FITitanium PCIexpress with it's own ASIO driver which lets me set Latency as low as 5ms! As you are using Asio4all I think your soundcard has no own ASIO driver. It may work, but I made bad experience with onboard-sound. I know, my X-FI is only semi-pro, but I have NO static nor noise and over 110dB.
maybe, but im happy with the quality it sounds really nice though. the only problem i have is that ASIO disables all other types from playing. i can play any kind of sound file while ASIO is working. do u know maybe how could i fix it? (i have some drumm machine-software and it doesnt work.. with asio)
There is no way to use a soundcard with ASIO & WMD or DX drivers simultaniously. When using ASIO the Soundcard is quasi not present for normal Windows-Sound. The Solution is to use a DigitalAudioWorksation Software like Reaper (Shareware). Then you can use Drummachines as VST-Plugin. There are thousands of Plugins for free. But I I doubt that a onboard Soundcard could handle more than 8 tracks with low (<10ms) latency. But try it. With Reaper you can also import any Soundfile and mix it.
help me pls ....im just wondering ... because as i saw your demo .. you used pc .now?? my problem is that im not using pc but im using a laptop ? is it ok? what do you suggest? pls reply asap

question: when i plugged my guitar straight to the mic socket.. will it cause delay or some problems with sounds? my friend tested it and he said that the sound is a little bit late
amospogi2 2 years ago
its a bit late because he plugged it into the mic port, not the line in... if u hav a line in port u plug it into that, but if not u can either buy a sound card or just use mic port and deal with the delay and slight distortion of sound...

buy a adapter for your output or head phone jack in your and for a 1/8 inch cable. buy a 1/8 inch cable (with two ends). plug your adapter into the output, your 1/8 inch cable in the adapter, and the other end of the cable in your line- in. then plug your guitar in the input. this is the best way i think.

I'm almost certain you can just ignore the pedal, and go straight to the computer.

yup
xTJxBeasTx 2 years ago
@jakeyboy909 Yes, into the "audio in", but since you arent pluging it into a mixer or an external soundcard it is very hard to get effects to go in the sound when the guitar sound is outputted.
Unless you are using FL studio that is...
barber574 1 year ago
you have to have some sort of processor. if you have an amp just run it out of the head phone out and then into the pc. no amp? hack a guitar cable and splice rca jacks on 1 end and plug that into the phono in on a stereo and then out of the head phone jacks into your pc.
brianwurst1234 2 years ago
OMG! Do you really like this sound?
Sure you can connect your guitar in this way, but it will never sound (static noise) better, cause a guitar has NO line-level. The imopedance doesn't match thus it sounds crappy,
The only way to get a better sound, buy (or try) Amplitube, GearBox,GTR2....And after that buy a new (better) soundcard. Then you will hear the difference.

fully agree mate
what do u use??
lavusrcu 2 years ago
I use an Line6 POD XT Live with USB into PC. Then I can record with any Programm/DAW. I use Reaper. When going with USB I have to use a VST-Plugin. I use Amplitube. So u can re-amp your guitar recording thus you have the pure, clean Guitarsound.
Andyw1228 2 years ago
thx mate, ill try the program, but i managed luckly to get a lot better adapter so i now get really clean sound (and it costed me something about 0.5e) and GTR4 has some noise reductors so it works real great and really cheap.
thx anyway!!!
lavusrcu 2 years ago
What do you mean "0.5e"? 50cents? Can you tell which interface you got?
Oh, GTR4 is fine too! I didn't check it out. I viewed some manufaturers videos and it sounded very good. Paul Reed Smith was involved in the Design of mic&cabinet emulation. But Waves isn't known to be inexpensive.
Andyw1228 2 years ago
what do u mean interface?
yeap, 50 cents. ive done just some simple steps, bought a good adapter, guitar jack to 3.5mm that doesnt have to much free space inside so u dont collect too much static noise(youll always have it but u can put it really low). i connected it directly to the sound card without any pre-amp, and i needed a program called ASIO4ALL (free) to i can manually control bitrate i some other stuff so i could get instant reaction from computer (no delay). and thats it!
lavusrcu 2 years ago
installed gt4 (pirate version) on vista if u asked for that. if for some reason u still have problem with static noise (it was the biggest problem for me), it has some noise reductors who can work really great in some effects (in some not so good but does the job)
lavusrcu 2 years ago
With Interface I mean a professional-Soundcard with Impedance adaptor.A normal Soundcard has a Input Impedance of 2KOhms.A Guitar has a Impedance of 15KOhms. That doesn't match! You will hear static, noise and it will sound "wrong". When you are happy with this sound you will be very surprised when you hear it with a corrcet setup.
Andyw1228 2 years ago
I have a Creative X-FITitanium PCIexpress with it's own ASIO driver which lets me set Latency as low as 5ms! As you are using Asio4all I think your soundcard has no own ASIO driver. It may work, but I made bad experience with onboard-sound. I know, my X-FI is only semi-pro, but I have NO static nor noise and over 110dB.
Andyw1228 2 years ago
maybe, but im happy with the quality it sounds really nice though. the only problem i have is that ASIO disables all other types from playing. i can play any kind of sound file while ASIO is working. do u know maybe how could i fix it? (i have some drumm machine-software and it doesnt work.. with asio)
lavusrcu 2 years ago
There is no way to use a soundcard with ASIO & WMD or DX drivers simultaniously. When using ASIO the Soundcard is quasi not present for normal Windows-Sound. The Solution is to use a DigitalAudioWorksation Software like Reaper (Shareware). Then you can use Drummachines as VST-Plugin. There are thousands of Plugins for free. But I I doubt that a onboard Soundcard could handle more than 8 tracks with low (<10ms) latency. But try it. With Reaper you can also import any Soundfile and mix it.
