Wondered if anyone can help here. I use the R channel with the Hi Z input on the Tascam to input the guitar signal and I feed that through Cubase SX3 into Waves GTR Solo. If I want to record in stereo, I need a stereo track, but then go into the routing in Cubase to disconnect the unused track (in this case it would be the left because I need to use the right). Problem is that GTR Solo is looking for the signal coming in from the left and for me to therefore disconnect in the routing option the R signal. That leaves me with nothing feeding GTR. Any ideas? Thanks in anticipation.

Have you tried flipping the mono switch on the 144. Not sure why the GTR is looking for a certain input if you are using it as a VST pluggin inside of Cubase. Or are you using it stand alone?

I'll try that, thanks Noize. I think it's to do with Cubase track routing being output based. The GTR manual says to open a stereo track even where it's a mono feed and then go into the routing editor and as this final quote from that section say:
"in the Routing Editor Slot, click the line on the right channel to "disconnect" it."
That leaves the L channel input only which with the US144 I ain't going to be using because the HiZ input is on the other R channel which will be disconnected!
Alternative is keep it all mono and select the R channel, but that doesn't sound as good with the Waves delays etc.
Anyway, I hadn't thought about the mono switch. be interesting to see what that does so far as cubase seeing the input...

Sorted it-just created a mono buss in Cubase and selected the R input channel of the US 144 as the input port for it (by default it tried to make it the L channel). Then easy to do the routing thing to stop the unwanted R channel going alongside the L in Cubase. Happy bunny now!
