Hey out there,
Got a question on hooking up a new piece of equitment, I got a product to hook my guitar to my computer called the stealth plug. After loading it on my computer the instruction book has a section on hooking it up to Cusbase, going to device setup then VST audiobay. Now the instruction booklet tells me to switch my main ASIO driver to the stealth plug ASIO. I'm running an M-Audio firewire 410 as my soundcard and if I switch my main driver to the stealth plug ASIO I loose sound witch is no surprise. There is a box you can check underneath the main ASIO driver in Cusbase that says, "Release ASIO Driver In Background". I have both of the Cubase books but cant find a reference for this box. I guess my basic question is how do I get this to work in Cusbase. I had a similar problem a while back while trying to get Guitar Rig 2 to work and was not able to get it to work which is why I am trying this new route.
Any help would be most appriciated,
Thank you,

Re: ASIO question for Cubase SX 3
Sun, December 9, 2007 - 12:41 PMSince Stealth plug is an actual USB audio interface you will have no luck because software can't run two different audio drivers at one time, you have to pick one or the other. So if you're plugging your guitar in thru Stealth plug then you cannot use the firewire 410 and vice versa. SInce it looks as if you need to run stealth plug thru amplitube anyway, why don't you just use amplitube as a VST plugin on an audio chanel in Cubase? That way you get the full functionality of the 410 and you just plug your guitar into the 410 and run it thru Amplitube that way. -

Re: ASIO question for Cubase SX 3
Sun, December 9, 2007 - 1:28 PMgood idea, but I installed as a VST and it is not showing up on my VST instrument list, But is showing up on my ASIO list, very strange. This is frustrating, it would be great if a company out there would just make a simple device to hook a guitar to a computer instead of all this overcomplicated stuff, I mean stealth plug has a section in the instruction booklet for hooking up to Cubase SX which is really no help at all.
I'll keep fiddleing with it, but it may end up being just another return.
Also, I cant run the stealth plug through the firewire 410, the stealth plug is quarter inch from the guitar to USB to the computer, the firewire 410 does not have a USB port.
Thanks for the advice though. -

Re: ASIO question for Cubase SX 3
Sun, December 9, 2007 - 1:35 PMIf I cant get it to work, can anyone out there recomend a good product to hook a guitar to a computer and run it in Cusbase as a VST, because so far all the ones I have tried have been crap, they all have some kind of internal soundcard which causes all kinds of conflicts with a soundcard already in use.
Just want to find something that works as advertised, so if anyone knows of any other ones besides Guitar Rig and stealth plug.
Thank you, -

Re: ASIO question for Cubase SX 3
Mon, December 10, 2007 - 9:10 AMJust plug your guitar into the 410 instrument input and put a VST amp sim on the channel.
www.simulanalog.org/guitarsuite.htm this one is free and I think it has some of the better sounding sims. It doesn't have a pretty interface and it doesn't have stomp box style effects, but hey, it's free. Otherwise buy Amplitube and use it as a VST on the instrument channel. IMHO, if you already have Cubase and a firewire interface, buying something like Stealth isn't necessary, it doesn't offer you anything you can't already get. -
