Recording direct from the RP150 USB to PC(Audacity)

Dick Sexton · From: Greenville, Ohio

I'm not to sharp about this stuff...

The concerning Audacity Effects as compared to the RP150 Effects In "Electronics" prompted some study that solved why I was unable to record direct from my RP150 to Audacity in my computer. The following is what solved it for me.

How I record to Audacity directly from my RP150 on my PC w/Windows XP Pro.

1. First make sure your Digitech USB is enabled as a Sound Recording Device by:
A. Opening your “Control Panel”(Click on Start>Settings>Control Panel) then click on Sounds and Audio Devices Icon.
B. Click on the “Audio Tab”.
C. Under Sound Recording, make sure you have "Digi Tech USB 1-2 in/out" showing in the window. If not click, on the pull down arrow and select it and then click on “Apply” at the bottom of the pane. You can leave these open until your sure it records.

2. With your RP150 hooked up as normal to your Steel/VP/Amp, make sure it is powered off. Hook up the USB cable from the RP150 to your computer USB port. Any seem to work. Power on your RP150. Your computer should find an recognize the "New Hardware".

3. Open “Audacity” and in the window to the right of the "input level slider" click on the pull down and select “Line In”.

4. Note: you will not see the Input Level VU Meter respond until you actually start recording.

5. Now you should be able to record your steel directly into one of the track in Audacity.

Most of everything I needed to get this to work for me, I found on the Digi Tech Site. www.digitech.com Under Faqs and Comments.
