Well thanks!! smile.gif It's always good to be appreciated. I've gotta say, I've learned at least as much as I've taught since I've been here, from Students, Instructors, our killer wiki, etc. I know I keep saying it but I really do love it here smile.gif

Umm...Hope someone can tell me where I've gone wrong. I have the trial version of Reaper installed and also amplitude 3 free version. They both sit on my desktop and work independently of each other. When I watched the above video, I realised I should be able to open amplitude up from the vsti box as shown...amplitude isn't there, neither are the poulin VSTs there. The poulins I put the dlls files in the plugins folder in Reaper on the C drive. Must have done something wrong! Please help...Thanks!!

In Reaper, click Options -> Preferences, then in the window that pops up, in the left-side menu, click VSTs. Then click Add, and browse to the folder where your Plugins are. Then click Re-Scan.

All the plugins should appear in the VSTs section now.

Thanks Sammetal I'll try that...isn't amplitube a program rather than a plugin?

And Headbanger, yes and no, it can be used as a standalone program and also a VST in reaper or any other DAW smile.gif

Thanks Sammetal smile.gif I think I need to get a DI or interface for the guitar to cut out background noise though...considering I've spent nothing yet apart from the potential $60 for Reaper licence in the future (unless someone tells me there something better cheaper) Thats pretty good!!

Edit: I am getting a lot of feedback on the Lead channels for some reason on amplitube..through my headphones?

Interference may be the factor for ya sir. Just move away from the computer, speakers, and electronics in general. Also turn the gain down just a hair if it full blown on. I know when I record I have to turn my chair away from my pc to take out static/feedback.


If you are just looking for guitars maybe something like this: http://line6.com/podstudiogx/


And an example from one of our other members Brandon! (TheFireball)

I didn't find anything better than Reaper for me at least, my friend got Cubase with an audio interface and he turned to Reaper after using cubase for awhile and he's been using it for the past 2 years smile.gif

Try turning the output levels down, or maybe the gain down. Use a Tubescreamer VST to boost the guitar's signal (turn the overdrive to 0, level to max and tone around 2 o clock).

That guy on the video was quite amusing biggrin.gif ! I like the sounds on that...Its a similar price to the Presonus interface..Now I'll have to research between the both as I had it in mind to get one of them.

I'm not sure I would recommend a Presonus interface for DI recording. If things haven't improved since mine, Presonus Audio Box USB 1.1, then you will just clip with the DI of a guitar to interface. I also had my instrument/mic knobs turned down to -10db. If you had an amp and you were to mic I'd suggest it, which I had great results. I also have a great results running say a multi-effect pedal that has XLR outs or even an amp with XLR outs to it. Just that the DI route was horrible for me. But that could be due to needing a line level. But mine is the cheapest on the market and about 2 years old now as well, things may have changed in that time.

Ok...A lot to think about..my Presonus thoughts were from a reccomendation from someone here using something called a Presonus 2x 2 USB and I don't know if that would have been the same as yours...Is The guy using the pod studio line6 using the line 6 software that came with it and combining that with Reaper and Amplitube?...I must admit that I like his sounds and sounds that I've heard others using line 6 equipment have produced...I expect there is a separate discussion for that on Gear.

Bingo! Nice article from our Mr. Connorgilks there. Pretty much details the entire process.

YES! smile.gif You can use even the cheapest line six box (The Tone Port) and it will suffice as an audio interface for your guitar. You just need to get clean signal in to the computer. The tone port will do that just fine. Any of the line 6 interfaces will take care of you. Later on when you start wanting to use microphones and such it will be time to upgrade, but it's always time to upgrade at some point. smile.gif

So you launch reaper and then launch amplitude INSIDE REAPER, most folks who are new to recording, try to launch amplitude and THEN launch reaper. It doesn't work that way sadly sad.gif You gotta launch your plugins inside the daw.
