Let's see if I can speedy this along. Blah blah all is started and running. When you record you wish to use Amplitube in real time while its ran in sonar pretty much as your stomp box/emulator/ect. When you arm to record the signal do you have it monitor via the input device that connects the guitar to the pc or software monitoring?

You have to turn the input monitoring on mate. Try this tutorial, it might help. Let us know if it worked!

Hey guys, Another struggle in PC land. I Installed Amplitube 3. When I want to use it in sonar I can't get realtime sound. Obviously, it installs as an FX-effect and not as a VSTi. So when I arm up a track (R ... record button) I see on the input meter sonar that my guitar signal is coming in. So far so good, but inserting the amplitube 3 in my FX, it makes no difference. I get the interface, I see that all buttons are on, but the meter in amplitube is not responding and I don't get any amplitube sound. And then comes the funny part, when I record I here the clean input signal. But when I listen back to it, amplitube has processed the signal. Very weird and very not usable situation. I tried to change tracks ins and outs, effects sends on and of but I can't find a solution. Anybody has any idea. The stand alone works fine, but I cannot use it together with sonar because when I try that, I get a message that the soundcard cannot be found ... I'm sure there are a lot of amplitube users who know the answer about this. Thanks in advance, Nico There should be the "monitoring" option somewhere in the recording software you are using - located on the track itself. It is usually in a shape of a small "speaker icon". Turning it on enables you to hear the "end product" - in this case signal processed by Amplitube 3. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

It sound like you are getting some "Latency" issues. Inside most DAWs (like sonar) you can reduce the latency by finding a the options/preferences menue and look for something that says SAMPLES. Set this as low as you can. If you set it to low, and the system stops working, bump it up. I"m not talking about the sample rate here, (44.1k etc) but the number of samples. I adjust my samples in LOGIC and REAPER down to 64 or 128 from the default of 2500 or so.
Here is a KILLER article talking about setting your LATENCY SETTINGS IN SONAR. Check this out and it should help http://sonar.sonarama.com/index.php?title=SONAR_Settings_Faq Todd |

... I don't experience latency problems myself but ... There is latency in every daw set up and the sound card, as Todd rightly points to, is only part of it. Some of this can be compensated for, some is dealt with to some degree by work arounds like direct monitoring but there is always latency. It can become more of an issue when you use multiple channels. Back in the days of analogue tape we used to deal with time issues by setting a tone burst, nowadays many mix engineers working on daws seem to think it's no longer an issue. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

There is some latency involved in every plugin. It's just that it is small value so we don't notice it, but it's there. This is why it is important to listen to mix rendered. Fast processing enables the DAW playback to go smoothly, but some shifts always occur.

Fast processing enables the DAW playback to go smoothly, but some shifts always occur. I'd suggest that whether it's discernable is debatable. I think you're absolutely right to say that the actual lag introduced by latency isn't if it's only a few ms. Nonetheless what is discernable, particularly if you check a stereo mix in mono, or if you have complicated multi channel mix, is the comb filtering that can occur. From my experience very few project studios do this though and then they wonder why their mixes sound thin, brittle, phasey and so on. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.
