So I play at my computer a lot... so much that my computer desk always has amps and cabs on it so I decided to enter the new world of Amp simulators.
I went to GC and bought A DI box, an interface and some headphones to use... well I CANNOT GET ANYTHING to work properly...
Seems like every free amp sim I download is just a bunch of BS files that do nothing. I got this one Peavey amp sim to work but man... it sounds just about as bad as plugging headphones straight into a practice amp!
I don't understand how people are getting these awesome sounds with these amp sims... also I installed a DAW that came with my Focusrite... At first I thought you had to use the DAW to use the amp sim as a "plugin"
Now i'm thinking the DAW has nothing to do with it... i've spent the last 6 hours trying to get either guitar rig 5 players edition to work (suuuper sketchy)
Ignite emissary (just some random crap in folders that do nothing on their own, or in my DAW)
and also I download the Amplitube
Windows won't even let me run it! blocks it as a potential threat...
This is super sketchy all round... can anyone give me some input? perhaps something that works? The DAW I installed and setup is the included ableton... I know how to direct it to my plugins... but the plugs do nothing.
Very frustrated.
