I honestly wasnt expecting much from the presets but actually I was impressed, they obviously need tweaked for my guitar but overall I thought they sounded decent and a lot different to the pod presets. The tape echo is especially nice. I really dig tape echo I need to get a USB cable and try to install it in the PC. Gotta admit Im not looking forward to doing that. Im expecting it to be a bit of a nightmare, based on the internets opinion. If I could pay someone to do it for me I totally would!

The hardware shouldnt give you any issues - but the software I had a hard time getting to work properly I think I posted a thread about it I'll see if I can find it for you.

Download some of the presets I linked previously so that when you grab a usb cable you can be ready. Download the latest driver for the 11 from the avid web site, and the stand alone editor and you should be good to go Just select the 11 as your audio interface inside reaper.

Once you install the drivers and editor you are pretty much good to go and start loading presets One tip. Once you load a preset you still have to SAVE it to the unit. IF you don't it will go away when you turn off the unit. You can use the main outputs to go to your studio monitors and use the guitar out to go to your guitar rig If you turn all the blocks off, then it's just an interface and you can use it with Guitar RIG or what not. Then again, you can always record clean to one channel in your daw and fx version to another track in your daw at the same time by changing the input in reaper. click on input and check how many you see.

Todd I do like the sound of that I definatley want to try and get that setup. I think the usb from the podhd500 will probably work in the 11. I'll need to check.

Also, keep in mind you can use your PD HD in the fx loop of the 11 rack to add fx that the 11 doesn't have and they are both midi so you could switch both units with one footswitch. EG> a clean patch that uses the pod as a second delay and second chorus/reverb/delay. Then tap another footswitch and turn off the fx loop and go to a high gain on the 11r. Your fx loop can be turned on and off so you may be able to use the pd for fx in the loop, providing you can turn off the amp and cab in the pod?

Apr 9 2016, 06:44 PM	Experienced Tone Seeker Posts: 3.348 Joined: 4-November 11 From: Scotland	So I installed the 11r and got it into reaper ...... no problem I mean really easy, had to adjust a couple of things but literally took 5 mins ( thanks to the screen shot of input settings a dude posted on the reaper forum, I thank you sir ) I thought, okay the editor will be a bitch...... nope, installed just as easy LOL! By the gods!! Id read so many horror stories about installing both of these I was expecting the worse. that said I'll probably switch it on tomorrow and my PC will explode not got the dual fx + dry signals set up yet and not looked at re-amping but Im up and running. Just really exploring some presets at the moment. Ive gotta say that some of the patches Ive downloaded have sounded great, with no tweaks at all they have just sounded awesome Really impressed with the unit so far.

Part of what brought the price down was AVID (the folks that make it) deciding to get out of the guitar processor market. They still keep releasing updated drivers which is great As a result, it's by far the cheapest processor of it's kind/quality out there IMHO. Not to mention it's a full recording interface with a built in mic preamp Enjoy! Todd You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Being looking online. I think there is one on eBay and one on gumtree.

Tons of them in the states but as soon as you filter the results to UK, it's like 1 or 2. No way I could have got one new but they seem solid enough units, the one I got looks mint.

The 11rack has some really good emulations of amps and a nice xlr input in front for recording amps/vocals, etc. and you can record dry signal and fx signal to separate tracks in your daw. Be sure to download the drivers and the stand alone editor. Then you can start downloading patches from my thread and the web. Also, don't forget the fx loop is mid controllable, so you can put just about anything in it. I have a high gain preamp in it that I can turn on and off with a midi pedal which is handy I also have a POD HD and it has wads more fx and a harmonizer, but the amps just don't sound as good to me. Less clear, more fizzy, etc. Avid did a fine job. If you need a Mesa or Fender Twin, you can have it for pretty cheap with the 11r. Of course the kemper and axe are just better units, but they also cost double/triple/quadruple depending. For the money, still the best buy out there IMHO.
