Hi How do u connect an electric guitar to a computer? The guitar cable jacks are too large to enter any socket in the CPU.....Is there any inter-connecting device between guitar and cpu? can someone provide step-by-step instructions on how it is done? Thanks
there is a 1/4 to 1/8 (3.5mm) jack converter available for 25-30 bucks in the market 1) attach to blue colored 'line in' jack of ur CPU. 2) select it for recording in ur Audio GUI control panel 3) play or, u can use some guitar software like guitar rig to have a ASIO control on Audio It'll work as a guitar amp with many preset & adjustable effects too.. I use FL studio 9 in which 'Hardcore' is my guitar amp... hope this helped (this is a dead thread though)
for a good and better input and output u should buy a good audio interface. a basic audio interface is "YAMAHA AUDIOGRAM 6" which i'm using for recording guitars, vocals, keyboards, etc and its my home studio. you will need to spend a little amount of 7k for this. as "harmonier" mentioned use Guitar RIG or IK Multimedia Amplitude. and for recording u will get original DAW (Cubase AI) with the interface connecting guitar through headphone slots given on the computer mostly ends on some useless noises and the cables are worst,... always prefer best and clean IO. have fun.
