SETTING UP THE SOFTWARE
WINDOWS
After installing Guitar Rig LE (and the ASIO4ALL drivers, if you are using Windows), you will need to configure it so you
can hear your guitar play through your computer. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Connect a guitar (sold separately) to your computer with the included 1/4"-to-USB cable. (If you are using
Windows, you may see several dialog boxes in the corner of your screen indicating it is "recognizing" the hardware
– the guitar – for the first time. Wait a minute until this is complete.)
2. Open Guitar Rig LE. In the window that appears, click the "Activate" button to register the software. The Native
Instruments Service Center will launch. (You will need to be connected to the internet to access the Service
Center to register your software.)
3. In the Service Center login window, click "Create new User Account" (if you do not already have one) and follow
the on-screen instructions to complete your registration. (You will need the serial number on the included DVD
sleeve to do this.)
4. After registering your software and opening it, the Audio and MIDI Settings window should appear. (If not, go to
File then Audio and MIDI Settings.)
5. Under the Audio tab, for Driver, select "ASIO." For Device, select "ASIO4ALL v2."
6. In your system tray (the icons near the clock and date display of your PC), click the green arrow icon once. An
"ASIO4ALL" window should appear.
7. Click the wrench icon in the lower right corner.
8. Under WDM Device List, check the boxes next to your
computer's sound card* and "C-Media USB Audio
Device" so they are lit green-blue.
9. Click the "+" sign to the left of those names so they
"expand," each showing sub-options titled "Out" and "In."
10. Click the boxes next to the "Out" and "In" options to
match the following:
•
Your computer's sound card's "Out" is lit and "In" is not lit.
•
"C-Media USB Audio Device"'s "In" is lit" and "Out" is not lit.
11. You should now be able to play your guitar and hear
sound coming from your computer.
12. If you are experiencing too much latency (lag from the
time you strum the strings to the time you hear the sound
in your computer), you can decrease the "ASIO Buffer
Size" to 256 or 128 samples. If you are experiencing
"clipping," pops, or glitches in the guitar playback, you
may want to raise the buffer size to 512 or above.
* Note: If you are using speakers connected to a
USB port on your computer, then you should
select these instead of your computer's original
sound card. If you are not using USB speakers,
then select your computer's original sound card
(some common names include "SoundMAX,"
"Realtek," and "Conexant").
* Note: For
information, you can find Guitar Rig LE's
manual by going to the software's "Help" menu,
"Open Manual," then selecting the manual you
want.
