What are you using to go into your computer now? If you are already using a usb interface, you should be monitoring from that interface too. In fact, disabling the onboard sound altogether is not such a bad idea.

What goes into my computer is a Peavey Vypyr 75 watt amp, great practice amp and they have this Usb out port right on the amp.

First of all, save your money. Judging from your name, you're acquiring software illegally. If you buy an audio interface it will likely come with some sort of software. How do you use DFH if you don't have a DAW?

"my Usb In and sound card out... "

It's a start!

useless

That was pretty much how I was thinking about it. Not only do you have useless gear, you own up to it, and knowing is half the battle!

Could you please answer this question? I'm very curious.

Kristal is good software, better than Audacity for multi-tracking - and is free for non-commercial purposes.

Your amp's USB out is not ideal for recording anything.
If it works, though, great. We'll probably still be here when you want better quality.

seriously my friend, try another forum. help is not what you are going to get here.
if you are looking for a hard time, and assumptions about your moral fiber, by all means, hang out. if you want help getting started, you would be better served elsewhere.

That was real helpful dave_p, your getting the hang of it.

I truly wish someone had told me this. It might have saved me months of being furious, along with several other people.

Moneyless,

I can't believe your other thread dragged on as long as it did either. I'd suggest you read your thread from the beginning, now that you have a month's perspective.

You got tons of good advice including jg49 on Page One of your thread: "If you were asking for advice about how to get in to home recording you got it but can't spend what around here might be considered the most minimal of investments. Good luck have fun."

I understand you don't have a lot of cash to spend. I understand you have computer limitations. If you had gotten a job mowing grass or shoveling snow (as the case may be) or part-time at the kwik-e-mart, you'd have a decent mic by now. Instead of wasting your time asking for advice you won't accept, find a part-time job. I can't speak for everyone here, but I worked my tail off for everyting I have today - and it started when I was 15. Nobody gave me anything and it was a whole lot harder to research anything pre-internet and pre-megastore catalogs.

You want to fly, but you can't afford a plane or even a plane ticket. We've been trying to keep you from jumping off the roof flapping your arms. At least save up for a parachute.

For the most part, everybody has been trying help.

Good luck!
