    Hello! Question: when you connect your guitar to Ableton via audio interface, do you have any effects or are the effects in ableton? Hope this question makes sense, just curious how you go about recording live instruments.

      All effects are "In-the box" which means its a clean guitar signal going into the effects in ableton. Hope this helps?!
