Need some help recording with Reaper

[tallcoolone]

Stumbling around trying to record through Reaper--the recording part seems to be working fine but when I try playback I'm getting no sound...thoughts?

Thanks so much in advance!

What device do you have set for output in Reaper?

 

[tallcoolone]

LOL how do I see that? (sorry I'm really a noob here)

Under Options -> Preferences -> Audio -> Device...

Audio system: ASIO
Audio driver: FAS USB Audio Driver

Check the USB Return level on the Axe-Fx next, and make sure your poweramp and such is turned on

USB retun level on the AXE is -60.00, whatever that means? Not using a poweramp, going direct into studio monitors

Turn it way up... start with 0dB, though you may have to back down to -6dB.

You da man! Do I need to worry about turning it back to -60?

 

[selta]

Nope. Leave it where ever it ends up working best for you, it has no other impact other than the USB sound coming from your computer... think of it as an input volume level for USB.

And now it isn't hearing the AXE to record, ugh

I use Asio4All drivers and they works very well!
