I'm having a lot of fun playing with this, but struggling with a level issue. I'm getting just a bit of distortion (the ugly digital kind) even though I don't see anything peaking in the meters, and I've padded the input (which is a high impedance input). Been watching Amplitube Explained on Groove3, but it seems to cover the basics (obvious stuff) and I haven't seen anything on level setting.
 

I use a Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 interface, and I found that the factory ASIO drivers don't work well with Amplitube.  The rotary speaker emulations in particular produce a harsh digital clicking sound.  However, using the ASIO4ALL drivers that I found on the web made everything sound good.  The latency is probably more now than with the factory drivers, but not noticeably bad.

have you checked for updates?  My Focusrite Forte Drivers are rock solid on Win 8.1....

You don't have any specs...so no idea what the issue may be...|
If you notice, we all have specs in our signatures for making it easier for
others to answer our questions and find our issues...just an FYI...

I hadn't really noticed other people's specs because I have signatures hidden (Essentials Only mode).

As far as I know, I'm running the latest versions of everything: Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 with 2.5.1 ASIO drivers, Windows 8.1 x64, Sonar X2a Producer, Amplitube 3.11.2.  The main difference I've noticed in the configuration options for the factory drivers vs. ASIO4ALL is that the sample latency values for the factory drivers are not powers of 2 whereas for ASIO4ALL they are.  Don't know whether the problem lies with Focusrite or Amplitube.
 
I've messed around trying to find a better solution but without any luck.  At least everything is sounding good currently (no more clicking), even if my latency is a bit longer than I would prefer.

Sirhan...don't know if you have the option, but have your tried to roll back to the previous driver?
 
Asio4All gives me terrible latency and pops and clicks and general horsepucky...don't like it.
Also may be something to do with Sonar X2a and the drivers...

Hopefully you'll hear from support.  Still not enough info there to go on.  But the vast majority
of folks here and at KVR that use the 2i4 have very good results...

I wonder if they'll extend it. I've sold my kidney on ebay but I haven't been paid yet.

I haven't had any issues with my 8i6, running very low latency. I have the 2i4 as well but have not used it yet with Amplitube, it has worked very low latency on all other VST's using ASIO drivers. My biggest issue with the 8i6 unit was at first I forgot to set the Line In as an instrument so I wasn't running it as Hi Z.

Don't forget to watch the input and out put levels with in Amplitube as well. You don't want to clip in the red on the way in or out of the Amplitube, the settings are along the bottom. On some of the amp models I actually have to adjust the input up a little within Amplitube to make sure my signal is shot enough. It all depends on how hot your pick ups are.

Also, there are hi, medium, and low resolution settings at the top in A3, to help with latency. You can set them low for tracking and reset them in Hi for the final mix or bounce.

Yes!!!  Thank you cclarry and MakeShift for encouraging me not to settle for my temporary solution of Asio4All (even though it seemed to be working).  I poked around again and discovered what was causing my clicking problem with rotary cabinets in Amplitube.  I had been using a sample rate of 44.1 kHz, but as soon as I changed it to 48.0 kHz the clicking went away.  So now I'm using my 2i4 with the latest factory ASIO drivers at 48 kHz with the latency at the lowest setting (1 ms).  Thanks again!

Glad you got it sorted out Silhan...

I never use anything below 48K....so that may be why I never encountered
any problems...

Wow!! Just saw that we got the 4th freebie!! Yaaayy!!
 
Still haven't decided on Jimmy or Slash.....
 
 
 

Mesh, you need to be more decisive! Or do you?
