Hey everyone, I'm hoping there's someone here who could help me out.
I recently purchased the Spider V 30 and have been trying to record with it in Pro Tools Express by connecting the amp to my PC via USB (details of my set-up below).
Windows 8
USB interface device: M-Audio M-Track Plus
Amp has the latest firmware installed
Latest drivers for Line 6 Spider series have been installed onto my PC
Pro Tools Express doesn't appear to acknowledge that the Spider V 30 is connected, and it doesn't appear in my list of playback engines (only ASIO4all and M-Audio/M-Track's ASIO) - so, no joy whenever I try and record into a new audio track with it. NB/ I can record in Pro Tools Express with other devices, such as MIDI controllers, that use USB connections.
However, I have been able to connect the amp to my audio interface device (via aux cable - going from the amp's 'phones' output to the interface's 'insert') and record that way - but I'm still curious to try the USB method to see if results differ (as I heard they do).
In any case, I would be grateful if anyone could offer any help/tips/pointers/etc. :)
Thanks!
