Pro Tools + Eleven Rack thru Amplitube
« on: March 31, 2011, 03:21:48 PM »
Hi Forum
I Have both Eleven Rack and Amplitube 3.0, and I run my guitar from the Eleven Rack as an interface to play with Amplitube 3.0.
The thing is pretty much that, when I go into Pro Tools, how do I Get the guitar recorded with distortion as an audio file?
Because if I put Amplitube as an insert, and I record with it, the track has distortion with it, but if i take out the insert which is Amplitube, it goes back to clean.
How can I record and keep it with distortion, no matter what I do with inserts?

Thanks for Support

you need to bounce the guitar track to another track (you can do this while recording if not in low-latency)

set up a send on the amplitube track to an aux bus, send the out put of the aux bus to a new track which is set to record.

If latency is a problem  (Amplitube is a CPU hog) you may have to simply record the track, and then bounce it to a 24 bit track and then import back into the session

why exactly do you want to take Amplitube out of the inserts?

I just wanted to make the sound of the track distorted (from the amp) no matter what insert I have and then take out, for example if I want to mix later and add effects I can remove the plug-in and stay with the track only.
Im going to give that a try.
Thanks a lot.

If you record a track and add a effect (and doesn't much matter with most software platforms whether you record with the effect or add after), removing (or bypassing) takes away whatever the effect/plug-in added, so if you want it to be a permanent track with the effect you could bounce/record the output of "that" track as described before (which saves on CPU resources), OR

I don't remember if ProTools allows you to use the same input source on mutliple tracks (I left PT in January for Digital producer)... I think it does.... if so, set up two tracks with the same input and record with Amplitube and the other "dry"

the only drawback is if you should want to make changes in the Amplitube settings on the bounced track... which you could not
