I'm a happy user of Cubase SX (v.1.0.6). I recently got Amplitube and I like it a lot. I'm plugging my guitar on my PC line in through my Korg Pandora PX1. It follows the recommendations of the makers of Amplitube saying that you need to match the output of your setup to the input of the soundcard (I think!). I actually prefer the sounds I get this way as opposed to plugging directly the guitar in the PC. The clean sounds sound much much better, fuller, brighter, they sound really good, I love it!
It gets complicated though when I use high gain settings for very "heavy" sounds. Then I get a LOT LOT of noise, and it gets even worse with the Pandora plugged in. It's better with the guitar straight in the PC, but still too noisy... It doesn't seem to be the guitar (it stays the same with the guitar unplugged), and I don't know what to do... Does anybody have any suggestions? Would it help if I used a noise gate? Does it exist as a VST plugin?
Thanks for the help,
Olivier
