Well it sounds like someone recorded a guitar through a pod into cubase to me, so I am unsure what the problem is

Arrg how embarrassing, it's ok i know what i've done and why it sounded weird for me sorry ignore this :/. But from what you've just said should i not be recording in that way? So this post isn't completely pointless is it ok to have both mono and stereo in a recording. And if i'm recording just one track like a solo or something should i use just mono? Good question ... The guitar signal input is obviously mono, but some effects (like delay, chorus and reverb) an make a mono signal into a stereo one. For that reason you wil be getting a stereo signal out of your pod when you record it. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Right so you're saying i should always record in stereo? The problem is i sometimes get an error from cubase because of that. I know i've only recorded 1 track with that mono so i'm not going to get the same fat sound that's heard but i couldn't do that with mono? Mono won't sound as fat initially because you will be losing all of the stereo information in the delays and chorus settings. You can make your pod have a plainer sound and add those effects back in cubase if you want to, but I would recommend recording in stereo. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Hi Steve
I work in Cubase as well and I record guitars in stereo all the time. Don't have mono output on Prophesy but even if I do,I would have used stereo anyhow. -------------------- Youtube

Muris: Ok thanks i'll try and record in Stereo from now on. One question though what do you mean by Prophesy? It's Rocktron Prophesy,a tube preamp with build-in efxs etc. -------------------- Youtube

The pitch thing Steve might be if your audio device and recording software aren't set at the same sampling frequency - ie if one is at 44.1 and the other 48.

Muris: Oh right cool i don't use one of those i just use what my POD patch has. Do you prefer to record clean then do it that way? So what you're saying is you use that for mono then use cubase for stereo? You mean clean like no distortion or clean like without EFXS? Anyhow,I plug both L and R outputs from Prophesy into Audio Card, give them some width on pan pots like 80% and that's it. -------------------- Youtube

I mean like record clean as in not distortion. Do you record your guitar then put it through prophesy to give it the effects then put it into cubase?

I use both clean and distortion from Prophesy cause it's tube preamp,
I avoid adding drive from softwares like Guitar Rig etc. And about effects,mostly I add them AFTER I record a sound dry but that's not the rule, sometimes I match all EFXS that I need straight from preamp so I record it with them. But usually I don't record with effects,yeah,just sometimes. -------------------- Youtube

Not used Cubase in a long while Steve but I think it's going to be an option in project setup. Project setup is one of the options in the Project Menu as I remember it.
With the pod there might be a software option that lets you choose and set its sample frequency/rate. Usually its a case of opening the software and somewhere on it there should be a menu option or tab that lets you set up your recording and monitoring preferences like frequency and bit depth. If there isn't then it's probably set at 44.1 unless line6 say different. Also make sure your using the ASIO drivers for the POD Steve and have set that in the Cubase preferences as well.
