Guitar recording issue....!!!

Post by budda12ax7 » Fri Feb 23, 2024 5:31 pm

I will try to explain as best I can:
The problem:
I run my guitar into the Focusrite input 1.....I have my head phone mix coming from the Focusrite headphone output....but

My clean guitar goes into my Studio One 4 on what channel I put a guitar track on...the problem is with the studio one fader I can't control the volume of the raw clean guitar....the studio one fader controls the volume of whatever amp vst I put on that channel....when I lower the Studio One fader it lowers the volume or input of the Ampire amp sim vst I have running on that guitar track and then I only hear the raw clean guitar.
SO...in my head phones I hear the raw clean guitar and the amp vst ..the Focusrite channel knob controls the raw clean sound.

I never had Studio One running like that...I would normally just hear the amp vst sound in the head phones.....I don't know if I clicked something in the scarlet mix control of something.....very annoying...
Any ideas??

Sounds like you have direct monitoring turned on in the focusrite mix/routing software and want to mute it. I'm not familiar with scarlett interfaces but try searching "how do i mute direct monitoring focusrite scarlett" and someone will probably have already answered this on reddit.

Pretty sure there's a button on the front of focusrite stuff that will turn off direct monitoring.

Back in those days, everyone knew that if you were talking about Destiny's Child, you were talking about Beyonce, LaTavia, LeToya, and Larry.

Isn't there a switch? Maybe in your settings...
Focusrite Control > File > Output Presets > System Playback
