Blasphemedia Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Background I am using the Pod Studio UX2 and Cubase LE AI Elements 10. I also have EZ Drummer and Halion Sonic SE software. My guitar is connected to the UX2, and the UX2 is connected to my laptop via USB. I also have a pair of studio monitor speakers connected to the UX2. I have made preset guitar sounds in the Pod Farm 2 software interface. When connecting my guitar to the UX2 I can hear the wet sound (preset distortion + effects applied) via the monitor speakers. But when recording in Cubase the recorded guitar track only contains the dry signal, the bare un-amped guitar tone. I've tried finding the Pod Farm 2 as a plugin in Cubase, but can't. EZ Drummer and Halion VST instruments can however be set up in Cubase, those work. Search path for Cubase: C: > Program > Steinberg > Cubase LE AI Elements 10 Search path for EZ Drummer: C: > Program > Toontrack > EZdrummer * * There is also a file, "EZdrummer.dll", in the location C: > Program > VstPlugins > Toontrack Search path for Pod Farm 2: C: > Program (x86) > Line6 > POD Farm 2 ** ** This path also has the subfolders "> VST > Line 6" Question How do I get to apply the Pod Farm 2 guitar tone presets to the guitar tracks I record in Cubase? Either up front, so that the recorded tone is correct from start, or as an applied effect post-recording, either is fine. Do I need to re-install Pod Farm 2 in a new location where Cubase can find it, or what to do? Many thanks in advance for any assistance!

fflbrgst Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Do you have the full version of PF that allows use as a plug-in in your DAW? The standard version is only stand-alone. If you only have stand-alone, you need to set the input in Cubase to the PF output. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blasphemedia Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 @fflbrgst Thanks for your help! Do you know where in Cubase I can alter this input setting to not be the UX2 as such, but instead the Pod Farm output? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be an 'input selection' option for each track you are recording - so you can select your source from any choices (different audio interface inputs, MIDI, etc).
