Shred Amp Simulator - Mixcraft 5 Mini Tip

This video shows how to use the "Shred" plugin that ships with Acoustica Mixcraft, then goes into a full blown song created with real drums, real bass, guitar running through shred and no guitar amp and all recorded with Mixcraft 5. No loops, midi or virtual instruments used. Thanks to Eric Vanlandingham! Learn how to make your guitar squeal without an actual real live amp.

PLZ HELP! when i monitor incoming audio from (guitar straight to laptop) it comes a second late :( it never makes sound the exact moment i play it, instead it comes in late. PLZ HELP FIX!

[acoustica222]

@InsaneAudioX You are experiencing latency. Watch this video on YouTube "Optimize Your PC For Use With Mixcraft"

[ArtificialFlavaFTB2]

When I click the option ASIO, i have no options to select. I need to get rid of this latency its killing me :(

[acoustica222]

@ArtificialFlavaFTB2 ASIO is only available if your sound card supports it and came with an ASIO driver. ASIO is not a Mixcraft or windows function, mixcraft simply presents it to you if your computer has an ASIO driver installed. Have you tried wavRT?

could i just take my laptop and put it near my amp and just recrod then do this

[acoustica222]

@Shreder158 You could but it will sound bad.

Sounds Great. What triggers are you using for your drums and also what plugin are you using for your drum sounds?
