Monitoring Amp Simps During Tracking

Post by Todzilla »

There's probably an easy answer to this, but how can a guitar player hear the amp simp (I use NI's Guitar Rig) while tracking their part? Can figure out how to do this via CueMix or regular DP.

Thanks in Advance,

Easily done in DP. Setup menu: Configure audio system > Input monitoring mode. Set to 'monitor record-enabled tracks through effects'. Set your buffer as low as possible to reduce latency. I find 128 to be good. Read up on this in the DP 8 manual pp 218-219. Rock on!
