Well two years on I’m coming back to this one as still thinking this through. I never did get the AI but did get a Boss DS-1, but that’s not the question!
Because of my hearing issues I use headphones for 99% of the time when practicing, although in some cases (depending on the exercise) I don’t bother with headphones or amp. The headphones are wired and connected to the amp.
For work when using Teams, etc I use a set of SHOKZ OpenRun Bone Conduction headphones which allow me to keep my hearing aids in as well. This works well.
I seem to recall that someone said (I think it was @stitch) that the soundcard in the AI takes over the card in the pc. On this basis if I was to connect up things up (guitar - DS-1 - amp - AI - PC) would I be bale to hear a backing track played on the pc as well as what I’m playing on my guitar through the amp?
The reason for asking is because of this discussion Major Scale Improvisation - #110 by TheMadman_tobyjenner At the moment I can’t hear a backing track being played because of using my wired headphones connected to the amp.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
