Listening in real time to recording
Hi All!
I'm brand new to Reaper, though I've been playing guitar for many years. I've purchased a Focusrite Scarlett Solo (2nd gen) and it seems to work great!
I am able to get the guitar connected through it (via my laptop), arm the track and record. However, I can only use that I/O (the Scarlett Solo) to record the guitar. Once it's recorded, I can hear it with the VST plugins I've configured with it. So basically, I can only hear the actual guitar sound AFTER I record it and play it back.
I tried just using the actual onboard soundcard for monitoring, but there is a bad lag that I can't resolve. I have my headphones hooked in to the monitor input on the Scarlett Solo, and that's how I can hear the playback.
So...does anyone know if I am missing something obvious that would let me hear the guitar track with the VST effects applied in real time?
Thanks for any help!!!
