@sleepylivyyy depends on the output of your amp. If you have headphone output from your amp, it'll work. If you use speaker out and connect it to your computer, you're gonna blow your computer right away.
I have a line 6 Mobile POD, it hooks up to an iPhone with a lightning cable and you can use garage band or the line 6 app. Mixing and recording in general kinda sucks and I’m not a fan of it, but it was $50 and the Walmart computer speakers I hook it to are $15. It makes a great tiny travel amp that you can carry in your case.
Sir, pls make a video on how to get outputs from different speakers running by multiple amplifiers from a same PC at the same time(at once)? Pls help !!
All depends on your interface. If you have 2 outs, then you have 2 outs. Want more? Get a bigger interface with more than two outs and send whatever you want to the outs
I've connected everything as u did (i have scarlett solo 3rd gen audio interface), but my electric guitar has no "electric sound", do i need to download amp to have electric sound ? Or what's the problem? How can i get electric sound (i dont have anctual amp right now)....❤
Do you hear the direct guitar signal? If yes, sounds like you've set everything up correctly 👍 you will need some amp simulators (plugins) and probably some recording software. I use Reaper for recording. You can use whatever you want, you will just need to look up how to do if for your specific recording software. As for amp sims, I have a video on my top FREE ones if you are interested. Good luck
Headphones out of the interface. The interface becomes the sound card. There will always be latency with anything digital and it depends on a lot of things. If you have a half decent computer the Latency will not be noticeable.
Can you please help me with one thing,am also doing in the same way how you have told,reaper is detecting my guitar sound,also i have chosen the output from my amplifier but now matter what i do, whenever am adding an external plugin in reaper(amped roots am using). But no effects are being applied to my guitar sound,the normal acoustic sound is coming,no effects are applied not at all!
I will take a stab at it! I am not tech support tho. Can you hear everything else in Reaper come through your amp? If yes, I would make sure the fxs are going on the correct track. They need to be on the effects channel of the track that is armed with your guitar. You need to make sure you are live monitoring that track too so you can hear what you are playing, not just the playback. If you do NOT hear everything else from Reaper in your amp, then maybe you have a direct monitor button pushed on your interface. That would send whatever is plugged in (the guitar in this case) and send it straight to the outputs for monitoring completely bypassing your computer. That feature is ok for vocals, but not for guitar. Good luck 👍
Reaper has one built in I think,but I use all 3rd party amp sims. Look up Neural Amp Modeler, Tonex Demo, Amplitude 5 demo, Neurontube, and ML Sound Lab Roots Demo. Those are all free
It is a good idea! I have one on standby. This interface only has one mic input and I was using that for a mic but I am switching things up at the moment
You can. You will need to adjust uour levels on everything. I dont know how to explain it best in the comments, but the output from a guitar is different than the output of the interface. Start silent and quietly work your way up
You have to adjust some settings in your DAW typically. Search for how to do it with your specific DAW. Less buffer size = less latency. I get no noticeable latency running at like 64 buffers
I am going to reply to what I think you are asking. You can use the amp sim on the computer as a preamp. You can go put from the interface to a PA, or out from the interface to a power amp / fx return (just don't have an IR loaded) on a guitar amp. That will bypass the guitar amp's preamp and go right to the power and speaker section. Just keep your interface level down cause the output it probably at a line level which is a bit hotter than your guitars signal
You can output to whatever. A guitar output and an interface output are different (mic vs line level i think). You will probably have to make some adjustments if you are going from interface out to an amp's input
can you do that with a bluetooth gaming headset ? i connected everything and reaper is picking up the sound but i cant find a way to hear it myself :( cant pick my headphones in the asio driver
If you want to use a computer setup as an amp you will need to go out the interface to the PA, the effects return of a guitar amp, or into a powered speaker. Hope that helps!
@@stevenkambachSorry, can you explain it better? Since I'm basically new to electric guitar I don't want to spend money on an amp so I was searching for a way to connect the guitar to the PC, and use it as an amp via a software (but I don't know which software)
@@stevenkambachyup ended up figuring it out. But now when I play my guitar it doesn’t go through when I record, my track is armed and the monitor is on, I don’t know what the problem is.
Reaper has a free unlimited trial so you can use it for free forever. A normal license for it is like $60. The interface is a behringer umc22 and is currently $69 on Amazon
No noticeable latency. Technically, anything you put in the chain is going to add some latency, especially digital pedals, but as long as it is low enough you won't notice.
Captioning probably did me dirty 😄 it is a DAW (digital audio workstation) and it is just a fancy name for recording software. I use one called Reaper which has an unlimited free trial, but is probably not great for a beginner. I started on one called Mixcraft. Which ever you choose there are plenty of tutorials on UA-cam for them. Good luck 👍
VSTs load on the computer, not the interface. Interface is just the ins and outs unless you have an interface with plugins built in, which this one does not. I run dozens of plugins at the same time on my computer with this interface. Look at any of my videos, all done with this interface. 👍
Instructions unclear. Got electrocuted after plugging a guitar into a power outlet.
😄 thats why they call it an "electric" guitar
@@stevenkambachhey man i play bass and i have a question, is it possible to use my morley wah with a computer rig and if so how do i do that?
@GullySlays yep. Just put it in front of the interface. Bass -> pedal -> interface
@GullySlays if you want it somewhere else in the chain it gets a bit more complicated
@@stevenkambach thank you 🙏🏻

Thanks for making it so straightforward

@@stevenkambachwhere does the second cable lead to? The one to the right of the one you just plugged in
@@magnumbeans8030 instrument cable from the guitar to the interface and a USB cable from the interface to the computer
This video made everything so simple, really appreciate it. I have a guitar. Now I just need everything else 😘 saving the vid
I got you ❤️
Very good no nonsense straight to the point very clear👍
Hopefully that is my brand 😄
Steven, this is very useful! Thank you!
🙏
If you have an amp with a usb slot, you can just plug that straight in and skip some steps
What if you use an aux cable in the output jack of your amplifier straight into the computer?
@sleepylivyyy depends on the output of your amp. If you have headphone output from your amp, it'll work. If you use speaker out and connect it to your computer, you're gonna blow your computer right away.
@@diazzsama Thanks for the info, Im a complete beginner so I might've sounded stupid
Instructions unclear: I’m still buying guitars to match how many you have
😄 I haven't figured that one out yet either
Love how simple this is! one question though, my DAW is on a macbook laptop would I need a different kind of interface for that?
Depends if you have a USB port or not! I think they make thunderbolt specific interfaces or you can probably use a dongle
@@stevenkambach ok thanks!
Very straight forward🙏 thank you
You're welcome 😊
Ah yes, I always use Reaper Doll. Hate the DAW though😂
Thank you so much, Paul Rudd.

Please do a demo on how to connect pedals with amp and guitar … i need help
Pedals usually go between the guitar and Amp. Guitar -> Pedals -> Amp
But where does the headfons plugs into computer or audio interface, and is there any latency in audio?
Headphones out of the interface. The interface becomes the sound card. There will always be latency with anything digital and it depends on a lot of things. If you have a half decent computer the Latency will not be noticeable.

can i listen to my music and guitar in the same headphones? to play along? I want to stay silent but want to hear it in the headphones
Yes. Most plugins will have a stand a lone app that you can load and you should be able to use a music player and app at the same time
Where did you get all amps in reaper ? Please help ,is It the new version of reaper containing all amps?
Reaper has one built in I think,but I use all 3rd party amp sims. Look up Neural Amp Modeler, Tonex Demo, Amplitude 5 demo, Neurontube, and ML Sound Lab Roots Demo. Those are all free
Definitely easiest way id add a di box then into the interface tho
It is a good idea! I have one on standby. This interface only has one mic input and I was using that for a mic but I am switching things up at the moment
@@stevenkambach thats good to hear once I got a di box I never looked back gets rid of all the nasty tones you dont wanna hear
Do you just need a normal guitar cable? Like do most usb interfaces accept aux cords?
This one take XLR or 1/4 inch (guitar) cables. You will have to check the inputs and outputs on an interface cause they are all different
could you like connect it to your computer and back to your amp so you can use those pedals but hear on your amp?
You can. You will need to adjust uour levels on everything. I dont know how to explain it best in the comments, but the output from a guitar is different than the output of the interface. Start silent and quietly work your way up
Yes you can . I use a 3.5 mm to 3.5mm cable. With an adaptor that converts it to guitar jack size.
How do you deal with the input latency? Ive got really unplayable input lag when playing through speakers?
You have to adjust some settings in your DAW typically. Search for how to do it with your specific DAW. Less buffer size = less latency. I get no noticeable latency running at like 64 buffers
Question can I use a pre amp as an output from the pc or maybe an amp?
I am going to reply to what I think you are asking. You can use the amp sim on the computer as a preamp. You can go put from the interface to a PA, or out from the interface to a power amp / fx return (just don't have an IR loaded) on a guitar amp. That will bypass the guitar amp's preamp and go right to the power and speaker section. Just keep your interface level down cause the output it probably at a line level which is a bit hotter than your guitars signal
Can you run the signal out into your real amp just to use as a speaker?
You can output to whatever. A guitar output and an interface output are different (mic vs line level i think). You will probably have to make some adjustments if you are going from interface out to an amp's input
can you do that with a bluetooth gaming headset ? i connected everything and reaper is picking up the sound but i cant find a way to hear it myself :( cant pick my headphones in the asio driver
I don't think you can Bluetooth out of reaper. There is noticeable latency with Bluetooth
My lovely dude, can i connect some external audio box to use as amp? Sorry for the shitty crap english
If you want to use a computer setup as an amp you will need to go out the interface to the PA, the effects return of a guitar amp, or into a powered speaker. Hope that helps!
@@stevenkambachSorry, can you explain it better? Since I'm basically new to electric guitar I don't want to spend money on an amp so I was searching for a way to connect the guitar to the PC, and use it as an amp via a software (but I don't know which software)
Is there anything else you can use if you don’t have an interface?
Not really. There are some USB instrument cables but I would not recommend
Can you use audio interface just to play? Or do you have to record?
Both. It becomes your soundcard so if you just want to listen, you cam
@@stevenkambach okay thank you because I just want to play I don’t wanna record anything.
Do you have toplug headphones in the inteface or can u plug em straight in the computer?
They have to go into the interface. The interface because the soundcard when plugged in and takes over all audio inputs and outputs
You skipped the step of installing the drivers for the UMC22 and setting up the settings correctly, which is probably the hardest part of the process.
True! That would have to be a followup video tho
can you use a regular speaker as a output here?
Like a computer speaker? Yes. Anything passive isn't going to work without some kind of power amp
what if I have no amplifier or whatever you connect your guitar cable to?
There is no real good solution without an interface. There are products that are guitar to usb, but I have never heard good things about them
Buy a rocksmith game cable
For some reason it says “no asio drivers found” when I have my interface plugged in . Do you know why ? Thanks in advance.
Did you download the "ASIO4ALL" driver? Otherwise I am of no help. Search based on your specific DAW and error message
@@stevenkambachyup ended up figuring it out. But now when I play my guitar it doesn’t go through when I record, my track is armed and the monitor is on, I don’t know what the problem is.
What kind of Doll? Barbie? Which one?😢
😄 DAW = digital audio workstation. Didn't catch that caption
@@stevenkambach Wow, there's a DAW Barbie for us guitarists too?? There really is one for everyone isn't there!
Can I use an amp for the audio?
Sure. I would mess with the eq and / or IRs if running thru a guitar amp. Guitar speakers are not full range eq like monitors
Can I use amplifier instead of usb interface?
If your amp has a USB out then maybe? I don't think too many amps can function as an interface
Is it necessary to have a PC to play electric guitar ? Or, I can play electric guitar only using a amp?
No PC needed! Guitar to amp is fine. PC is for recording and using amp simulators
@@stevenkambach thank you sir
Sir can i use this method for live performance
Yep. I've never done it, but you'd go line out of the interface to the PA or a speaker. Depends on your set up
I have the same pc and guitar and interface wth😂😂
Hey twin 😄
How much is reaper and the interface?????
Reaper has a free unlimited trial so you can use it for free forever. A normal license for it is like $60. The interface is a behringer umc22 and is currently $69 on Amazon
Cheapest Guitar Interface is a Rocksmith cable.
Facts
Yes but i have a delayed sound if i play how can you fix this?
Look up how to adjust the buffer size for your specific DAW. The lower the buffer size, the lower the latency
Yes but i don’t know how😅
does it need amplifier?
Typically you would use an amp sim plugin or digital amp on the computer. Listen with headphones or speakers
@stevekambach, where to connect headphone
Guitar model?
First Act ME952
I purchased this beringer interface. And cannot find any programs that work, so it's Outdated and USLESS!!!!😢
Every program works with it. Are you missing the driver? Make sure you are running "ASIO4ALL"
Does it playback with amp sim in real-time?
No noticeable latency. Technically, anything you put in the chain is going to add some latency, especially digital pedals, but as long as it is low enough you won't notice.
Is there a way to do this with a console
Depends on the console. Something like the behringer x32 or xr18 should have the capability to be an interface too. Most analog boards do not.
I use mic inside my acoustic guitar
Hey dude, what's ur laptop ?
HP pavilion! 16g ram and 500g hard drive I think. I would recommend getting more ram. 16 will get it done but it gets quite laggy with video editing
Alright cool ! Thanks for answering that fast ! @@stevenkambach
What if i don't want it for headphones?
You can connect to speakers too. I just use headphones most of the time
I have a more simplistic approach. Connect guitar to amp, switch on amp, play til fingers bleed. 😂
😄 that is one way to do it
dumb me thought it would be enough to conncet only the guitar cable 😂
😄 they do make guitar to usb cables but I have never heard anyone say anything good about those so I would not recommend
apparently reaper is a virus
It is open source Recording software
