Trucks Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Sorry Im not that proficient with it, but is it not meant for a Line-In rather than a Mic input? Soundclick Myspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stamplicker Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 it says to plug through the mic, which I din't care for.. but if you go into your settings and set the recording device (check mark) in the Line-in box. then you'll hear it through the program. Took me a bit, I still have a bad crackle sound when using it and not sure if there's a way to record it through that, had Awesome tone last night and couldn't record it =( MagicStomp Soundbites Soundclick Rambles Haunted Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucks Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 It makes you plug a line into a mic port? Thats kinda wierd... the mic channel is gonna chuck a pre-amp into the mix... Mind you... I guess a geetar is not exactly as line-out anyway... Soundclick Myspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stamplicker Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Ya made me scratch my head for awhile. cause nothing was working at first. Then just horrible hiss, nasty noise. looked at the settings, and says to plug the guitar into the mic and not the line-in. SO figured what the heck, tried it and was not impressed. so changed my settings to be Line-in for recording device plugged the guitar into the line-in. (no DI box). And i had a Tone so sweeeeet Last night that butter factories would have closed it was so smooth and creamy.

Trucks Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 LOL butter factories! :-) I have not heard that one before. Do you have a link to the demo handy? If not, no biggie I shall call upon the master that is Google. Soundclick Myspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrick1642607670 Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 ok... my guitar goes into the amp and out of the amp goes an audio cable into the line in of ym computer and its not working, where i select my recording device it just shows realtek 97 and my webcam mic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucks Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Hmmm if that is the case Derrick, I would take a guess that the Realtek card has its own bit of software which sits in the System tray?? Maybe have a look for that, see if you can set your record interface as the Mic input and plug the guitar into that? Im only guessin though mate.

Derrick1642607670 Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 wait... ok im in my line-in and im getting sound and the program is picking it up but the controls and effects arent taking effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stamplicker Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Click download above Jimi's Head Ohh Try Trucks way, but I'd suggest takeing the guitar and plugging it into the line-in or mic-in first. What I figuured with my setup was that it didn't care for a lot of signal at the front end of the program. And trucks the tone I had was smoother then just melting butter... melted where it came from Jus thave to figure out how to record it and get rid of the crackle that killed the tone, but minus that stupid crackle I needed to be alone with the program MagicStomp Soundbites Soundclick Rambles Haunted Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A String Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Does the crackle you are getting, sound like quick little clicks? Could be the Sample Rate and Buffer Size settings. -Click "Settings" -Click "Audio Setup" -Lower the sample rate and buffersize and see if it helps. Start out fairly low, then raise it just as high as you need to, to keep it clean, but minimize the clicking. The sample rate will reduce the quality of the sound and the buffersize will increase or decrease the latency.

stamplicker Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 no latency at all now, find it worst when I run with the asio drivers =(. plugging in a moment and will check .. think it's set at 512 right now (default) buffer Took it down to 256 and even worst alot!!!

Trucks Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I only just (well a few hours ago) got round to installing this program!! Wow! Great tones, I installed the Jimi & Standard demo's. Shame its only a 10 day trial! :-) Soundclick Myspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitar55 Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 ok... my guitar goes into the amp and out of the amp goes an audio cable into the line in of ym computer and its not working, where i select my recording device it just shows realtek 97 and my webcam mic Amplitude models an amp right? Why are you going through an amp into the computer? Shouldn't you be plugging your guitar directly into the computer? EDIT: It looks likeyou're doing this now. Matbe I should have read the whole thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucks Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Has anybody used it with Cool Edit Pro yet? Do you have to set it as direct X effect? Im thinking of putting my new Mic on hold and buying this software now.. :grin: Soundclick Myspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stamplicker Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Where did you find the Jimi download? coudln't find it. And got cool edit going and seeing the plugin, but for the life of me I can't get it to play back, so don't know if the plugin's work'n or not? but TOL, see what I mean about that sweet tone you get from it.. just boggles the mind!

Trucks Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Yeah, amazing tones. Ive been using it through cans, but am going to try it out going through the power amp side of my flextone, to see how that goes. Found the Jimi download at the link you posted above :-) Soundclick Myspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stamplicker Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Doh!!!!! Teach me for not scrolling down the download list Thank you!! will give it a go later tonight! MagicStomp Soundbites Soundclick Rambles Haunted Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucks Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Although there are less FX to choose form on the Jimi one... It's defo my favourite... For all the obvious reasons. :-) On another note, Jimi used some crazy tones... Ones which if I stumbled across whilst fiddlin around, I probably would have disregarded... He obviously had much more imagination than I!! :-) Soundclick Myspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
