Amplitube and other plugins

Post by symeboy » Mon Jan 11, 2010 12:59 pm

Hi everyone,

First time on here, looks good!

Having dabbled with both cubase and audacity, I am considering migrating towards using audacity more because its more simple and I like to use freeware. However alot of my recordings are already done on cubase. In cubase i often used a plugin for di bass guitar called amplitube. As far as Im aware it is popular, yet it isnt listed on the audacity wiki plugin list.

I have tried reinstalling the program so that it now exists in audacity plugin folder, but it doesnt show up in the effects toolbar. I managed to get another plugin to work doing it this way, maybe amplitube cannot be used with audacity....

does anyone know?

Thanks

steve

No guarantees, but try with the latest version of Audacity (1.3.11 from here http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php? ... tly_Builds )
Copy the plug-in to the plug-ins folder and in the Edit menu tell Audacity to "Rescan for new effects". Then restart Audacity.
If it doesn't work then it's probably not supported.

Im afraid you may be right, I tried what you suggested and no cigar.

Are there any other plugins for bass guitar amp modelling that audicty supports that I could try? I will post this as a separate post if there arent many responses...

Thanks, symeboy
