I had an Xbox, and I bought Rocksmith, a teaching game for guitar. It came with its own usb cable for plugging into the Xbox! I still have the cable; good to know it might be useful!
I'm not sure if you could use it with discord, but it can be set as the primary microphone input on your computer, so it's no different than any other microphone that is connected. Guitar pedals can be used first, just connect the USB cable to the last guitar pedal. I'm not sure how good that will sound though.
Thanks. When i use this cable with asio driver on guitar rig 5 appear a noise periodical while few second. This noise is cyclic and when i open de asio setting during the noise, this disappear. But this noise come back again. What can i do?
I bought an Alesis cable and it came with Ampltube software but I have never been able to get it working correctly, same with Guitar Rig. I might give it another go with the ASIO V2 driver
Yes Because The Plug of a bass Is the same plug on a guitar so You can use it but not of course with the way he setup the amp you will need to get a bass amp emulator if your using Mac I recommend garageband or logic
Lose All Audio Output when I plug in the USB guitar cable. It didn't used to do this, I used it for months with no issues, was busy for a couple of weeks, and when I plugged it back in, Silence... I tried switching to other ports, changing the audio device, .. nothing seems to work. I want to think the cable is defective, but it Did work, and why should it effect other audio?
Is it possible to use a usb C at the PC end of the cable and a 6.35 mm jack at the other end for my acoustic guitar that has a Piezo Pickup Transducer in it?
Thanks for the video! However, my version of cakewalk looks completely different than in the video, and when I go to the Edit button, it only gives me the option to cycle, or slice at playhead. Is there another way to go into preferences? Thank you!
this is an audio interface. a shitty cheap one but still an audio interface. the whole device is the usb part. its just more confortable than using a dongle with a cable and a headphone output.
Yes, you can. I use mine for Bias FX. It works fine, but you might get a bit of Latency. Adjusting the Buffer Size and Sample Rate can fix that problem, though it gets kind of annoying, because you have to constantly adjust it if you are using a backtrack due to the extra audio being played through your speaker.
did you hear the noise level on the dirty amp sim ? thats because you are turning the guitar input low to avoid clipping the usb hardware . not ideal . get the behringer um22 or what ever budget interface you can find . my first was a line6 guitar port i paid 15 dollars for . it sounded very good . i used almplitube , th3 and all sorts of vsts in reaper .
@@thomas.thomas I guess so, never really managed to solve this. Some softwares make it noisier than others, but overall it's still noisy. I don't think it could be my guitar, since it does little to no noise in OD channel on my amp
@@YourHomeRecording ok 🤣 i used a guitar cable with a pc jack in line in the past, because i didnt knew usb interface existed and i made lots of cables defekt this way because they get pulled all the time
If you are planning to record covers especially bass covers, don't use usb guitar cables. Once you plug it in your laptop and start recording, you will hear a really loud hum noise that is really annoying and cant be fixed. The bass also gets drowned with the loud humming and also latency
@@theguy4688 Get an audio interface. Any audio interface is good. I just got mine a week ago and it totally works. It eliminates the humming noise and there is no latency

if your recording a full album plan to buy a bunch of these, they die like after a few hours lmao
oof. thanks for that though.
Do you think the best brand for usb guitar cable? any references for me?
but what are the advantages of using reg plug to usb??? would yoube able for exampleto play synths like a vst with a usb controller keyboard?
Useful video - thanks!
I have 2 questions
1 can I use this as a mic on discord
2 can I feed my guitar thru pedals and then to the pc
I'm not sure if you could use it with discord, but it can be set as the primary microphone input on your computer, so it's no different than any other microphone that is connected.
Guitar pedals can be used first, just connect the USB cable to the last guitar pedal. I'm not sure how good that will sound though.
Would I be able to use my guitar pedals with this cord
yes, you can use pedals this cable but you need app like guitar rig
Does this work for rocksmith on pc?
Thanks. When i use this cable with asio driver on guitar rig 5 appear a noise periodical while few second. This noise is cyclic and when i open de asio setting during the noise, this disappear. But this noise come back again. What can i do?
I am unable to get any sound. I was told I needed an audio Interface but looking at this maybe I dont? Using Guitar Rig btw.
this is not working for me
I bought an Alesis cable and it came with Ampltube software but I have never been able to get it working correctly, same with Guitar Rig.
I might give it another go with the ASIO V2 driver
does this work with a bass?
Yes Because The Plug of a bass Is the same plug on a guitar so You can use it but not of course with the way he setup the amp you will need to get a bass amp emulator if your using Mac I recommend garageband or logic
could i use this on a keyboard headphone OUT would it be stereo?
Decided to try one myself. This was very informative.
Is it good

I was wondering if I could use it on my xbox one, or my smart TV as an amp? Parhaps a third party app i could download?
Is it possible to use a usb C at the PC end of the cable and a 6.35 mm jack at the other end for my acoustic guitar that has a Piezo Pickup Transducer in it?
Thanks for the video. Which one is better: chinesse guitar link or this one?
same

Can you use this cable for Rocksmith with the mod that allows to play without the original cable?
Yes you can use it for Rocksmith. It will show up as a microphone.
@@xero3856 Really? I used a fairly similar cable for Rocksmith, Nuosiya I believe, it had all the packaging but it didn't do crap.
@@jamesslayer4 I don’t know want to say to that but check the audio settings for your computer. I had to fiddle with them for Rocksmith.
My amp has a line out option. Is it possible to use this USB cable with my amp and then record my guitar?
Sir I have a question..Can I record a Keyboard on a recording software using this cable?
@Max Designs No sir...my keyboard has a 6.3mm jack exit....just like the cable
But from where are you getting the output? Are you using headphones connected to your PC/device's sound card?
speakers or headphones yes

Does this work on Studio Instrument Bass?
is it possible to run onw of these cables through a pedal first
no. the whole idea of these cables is to use a pc for the pedal simulation. use an amp for that.
Whats the difference between connecting this directly to the pc and connecting it by an audio interface?
this is an audio interface. a shitty cheap one but still an audio interface. the whole device is the usb part. its just more confortable than using a dongle with a cable and a headphone output.
Mine is a tisino and the light is indicating that it’s plugged in, but my ps4 saying that it’s not
This is for PC. Not sure what you are trying to do with your PS4 but that sounds way different
Can I used that for Bias Fx?
Yes, you can. I use mine for Bias FX. It works fine, but you might get a bit of Latency.
Adjusting the Buffer Size and Sample Rate can fix that problem, though it gets kind of annoying, because you have to constantly adjust it if you are using a backtrack due to the extra audio being played through your speaker.
Is this compatible with windows 10 ?

Is it compatible with Chromebooks?
Its ok to plug on any speaker with usb plug hole?
yea
This cable is not available on Amazon today (Jan 2023)
Most of them are quite similar if you try a different brand.
why does mine sound lke shit? it has a lot of gain and its noisy
I think some cables are just bad
@@thomas.thomas I guess so, never really managed to solve this. Some softwares make it noisier than others, but overall it's still noisy. I don't think it could be my guitar, since it does little to no noise in OD channel on my amp
@Enzon both headphones and speakers
If the light on the cable is blinking once I open garage band dos that mean it’s a bad cable? I can’t get any sound but my cable is prank new!
I am having this exact issue, did you solve it and how?
I’m late, but make sure the input (input 1 or input 1+2) is set to your usb cord. Make sure monitoring is on too.
i wish i had one can an amplifier be used to connect to amp simulator ?
Does your amp have an aux input
@@haydenhartley7212 i don't know im just asking
@@hruaiafanai3598 i mean if it does you can get an irig and an aux cable and use that
@@haydenhartley7212 thank man for the info i really appreciat it .
@@hruaiafanai3598 that’s what I do, you know what an aux output is right?
cant we just use an USB interface?
Yes, it’s a better option. This is the absolute cheapest way to do it. Just for fun 🤪

That hasn't been my experience, but it could very much depend on your particular instrument and cable.
Daniel Jon Santillan really? Ive havent found any solution for the static noises when I record my bass its sad that it cant be fixed
any recommendation for recording a bass?

I've been using it for 2 weeks
my guitar blew up
What about these xlr2usb cables (described as microphone cables)? Will they work with guitar preamps?
Holy fucking shit this video is LOUD
wow cant believe you didnt show yourself playing that way we could see the latency or not for ourselves!!! waste of my time!
can we use as midi controller?
now, how do you think that would work?
