Hello,
I am a newbie to PT and have a question. I am using the Fastrack c600, MP9 window7, new computer. I was wondering if you can get the included amp sims to work in real time for an electric guitar? Any of the included distorted guitar sounds. I can only record clean and then add the distortion after which is no good. Any info is appreciated. Reply in plain language please. Thanks!
 
Hi.

If you do the following -
set up a new audio track
put a guitar sim insert on it
set the input to match your hardware input
plug the guitar in
record arm the track

You should be able to hear the effect in close to real time.

If not, you may have to toggle auto input monitoring. It's in one of the menus.
 
OK, I gave it a shot. Looks like I am going to need a bit more details on how to do the first 3 steps after the program is up... I know I plugged the guitar in and armed the track correctly!
 
Have a look for a PT user manual pdf and do a search for 'input monitoring'.

I know it sounds like I'm palming you off, but the manual will answer your question much better than I can.
 
Man, If you're stuck do come back.
I'm not just saying like, RTFM!! lol.

I do get the feeling the manual will sort you out on this occasion, but if not, let us know. :)
