Dave, I have mentioned this to you several times over the year, you never responded back. Yes, I have had problems with IE11 and this site. The same problems you are encountering. I switched to Firefox for this very reason.
Back on topic. I have always recorded DI through an amp sim pedal. Recently bought an amp sim plug for my UAD interface and now I use the sim pedal for only stompboxes.
My apologies. Yes I recall you saying that now. I thought I HAD replied that this old numpty has enough trouble with IE and cannot envisage a fresh start! Mind you, this EM laptop is the wife's that she never uses so I could try Firefox on this.
Dave.
