Does Guitar Rig work with bluetooth?

qmccann

I have been through all the troubleshooting guides for my interface (Steinberg UR-22) and cannot get sound from GR 6, although all the lights are coming on in the software. I'm running bluetooth headphones through my PC. Do I need to run headphones or speakers directly from my interface to get sound? Thanks! Quinn

@qmccann You need to consider the bluetooth headphones as an audio interface. Guitar RIg can only handle one audio interface. You can either choose the UR 22 or the Bluetooth headphones. With the UR 22 you get an input and an output, which is what you need for Guitar Rig. I'd recommend to connect speakers or headphones to your audio interface, I mean analog headphones with an audio cable. With bluetooth headphones you will have a latency that will make it really uncomfortable to play anyway.

Are you running GR6 as a stand alone or as a plug-in?

If it is stand alone you need to open up File\Preferences and in the audio tab ensure that 'Yamaha Steinberg USB ASIO' is selected as the device.

If you are running as a plug-in your DAW should pick up the correct driver, which again is the Yamaha Steinberg driver.

This should give you audio at the outputs of the UR22.
