Amplitube problem

Hi!
I've got amplitube vst running on Steinberg WaveLab, and as i tried it out, i noticed it modifies the signal in parallel to the original signal, which means that when i play the guitar, i can hear the unmodified signal feeded through to the output with the distorted (and whatever else fx) signal, and it makes it sound weird. So is there a way to mute the unmodified signal from the output or is this just the way Amplitube works and cannot be come over with?
Thanks,
Sawyer

Feb 14, 2003 11:18 am i've got a soundblaster live 5.1 and the guitar is plugged to mic in, and i use the kX project drivers, with only the mic line connected to the ASIO inputs so the soundcard itself doesn't generate any of the unmodified signals that play with the amplitube.
Feb 14, 2003 11:30 am you plug a guitar out into a mic in??? Is this an electric guitar out? That'll never sound good unless you have a preamp in there, which I doubt the SB does...but ya never know.
Feb 14, 2003 08:06 pm i used to plug my guitar into the 1/4" mic pre on the front of SB Live drive. not exactly recording material, but great for a quick jam or to warm my fingers up.
sawyer, doesn't amplitube have some sort of "mix" adjustment, where you choose the dry/wet signal ratio?
Feb 16, 2003 08:59 pm Yes, I believe it has that option. Also make sure you do not have the line in selected on your SB card's recording mixer. You will need to open the window's mixer view for the SB card and check under the recording preferance's and make sure it is not selected, as that will cause the problem you speak of.
Feb 18, 2003 06:56 am yes i have disabled all other direct feed sources except the asio input and i still haven't figured out how to fix it as Amplitube itself doesn't seem to have any adjustment for this.. although it could be the process itself causing this, since Amplitube processes only mono signal, and the way i've plugged the guitar to the mic in, feeds the signal to both channels, and therefore the other channel must feed through the signal unaffected.
Feb 18, 2003 12:40 pm Nah - your problem is that you have direct monitoring enabled somewhere in either Wavelab, or your SB's configuration. Have a look for this paramater and switch it off, failing that - have you looked on the Standard Windows Sound Control Pannel (the speaker icon in the bottom right) Make sure that the "Mic In" is muted.
jues.
Feb 20, 2003 10:52 am heh nope no direct monitoring on anywhere.. it doesn't do this when i use other VSTs or DX plugins on WaveLab.. i don't have any mic in's online in the sound blaster driver windows either.. i'm not even using them because they don't have ASIO support :P
