and in the first place: many thanks for your reaction, much appreciated.
I really don't want to do great or difficult things like composing or so, but, being a hobby-guitar player, I want simply add a (live) guitar track to an existing backing track. Therefore it's 'handy' to hear first how my guitar will sound when adding an fx-effect to it before record.
My pc can easily handle the in- and outputs through a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 with little or even no latency at all -
I can record my guitar along with (monitoring) the mp3 backing track without problem and during playback (of both tracks), the fx effects apllied on the guitar track sound great.
But My problem is that , during record, the guitar sounds FLAT with no reverb, compressor, etc. at all, which makes playing not so fine. Sure, I can edit the effect(s) afterwards, but here also one cannot hear what the editing sounds like. One has to play and record again before you'll hear the result !
I would be more than happy to buy this fine program when it can "fulfill" this issue. Hope you can help me with ?
Thank you very much in advance

Meile, in answer to your question: You do not want any effects on your guitar (or other instruments) when recording because they cannot be taken off
once they have been recorded. Everything on the way in is recorded FLAT. That is a "never forget" thought !!
