Is anyone here willing to record a couple minutes of feedback for me? - The type of feedback you get when playing loud with high gain and when you mute all strings without fretting anything. - Dry direct recording of humbucker in bridge position. - 44.1 kHz 24-bit - Please also hit some...

Cool song!

If I would get a Pod, I could monitor straight from the Pod and have no latency issues. Reaper is set to use the interface's ASIO driver and to not request a buffer size. I've attached a screenshot.

Well, the latency is also 12 ms when monitoring the dry guitar signal, so it's not the amp sims that cause the latency. ---------- Update ---------- Buffer size is 49 samples, the lowest option with my interface.

In the test recording I made there were no other tracks. I'll try and find some instructions for optimal settings, I hope that gives me a couple of milliseconds. But I wonder if that will change anything if the latency is caused by the conversion of analog to digital and back to analog, I wonder.

Yes I do. I use the latest version of drivers by Tascam.

I have found out that I get a 12 ms latency when monitoring my guitar through my computer without any VST's or other effects running. Interface: Tascam US-1800 (latency set to lowest option; 49 samples) Computer: Windows 7 64-bit, Intel Core i5-750 2.67GHz, 8 GB RAM, Samsung 850 PRO SSD 1. Is...

I've just tried another amp simulator and again it had a 12 ms delay. But I found out that there is also a 12 ms delay without any sims. I'm going to make another thread about this.

Somehow the Vox amPlugs never seemed good to me, but that's mainly because they looks silly with the attached plug. Do they sound okay plugged into distortion pedals? I've also found an headphone amp made by Electro Harmonix on the page miroslav linked. Both the Vox and the EH can't seem to be...

That's a good tip, I'll try another simulator first!

What I don't like about demo's is that it's become so easy for bands to record and release mediocre stuff. In the past bands often existed for years before they had the chance to record and release an album. Nowadays very young bands start releasing demo's and EPs, which kind of dilutes their...

I'm sorry, I wasn't clear on that. It's just to play late at night. I guess my PC is pretty decent. Intel Core i5-750 2.67GHz, 8 GB RAM, Samsung 850 PRO SSD. I've just did a test and I have found out that there is a delay of 12 ms regardless of the quality settings in Amplitube. I did this by...

I'm looking for a way to play guitar using headphones. I play blues (clean and overdrive) and also high gain stoner metal. I've tried with my guitar into my interface (Tascam US-1800) with buffer set to the lowest option and Amplitube 3 set to the lowest quality. The metal stuff goes pretty...

Occasionally I forget to turn my amplifiers to standby before turning them off, I just hit the power switch. The amps have survived this so far. Is there any danger in directly turning off a tube amplifier?

It's spring reverb. The specs don't mention anything about it being tube driven so I guess it's not.
