I recently purchased a new ipad along with the iRig Stomp i/o interface so that I could control the pedal boards with Tonebridge when using my ultimate-guitar tabs lessons and jam alongs.
Amplitube was an after thought however I did download both applications onto my mac as well as my new ipad, along with tunebridge. I also downloaded the custom shop and acoustic app as well.
I went to IK and signed up with an account and registered the hardware. I tried to register the application and while in the ipad, docked to the iRig interface under the (accounts) log in is where I see my first issue. also while the guitar is plugged into the interface, all power is on, the usb plugged into my mac, I do not see it registering any sound, I tried the tuner setting and nothing shows it's getting a signal. I am waiting on a 1/4" headphone jack as I was ill prepared on that front and have not gone 1/4" out to any amp or monitor but even without a headphone device, the graph should show its getting a signal?
So I am looking for some advice from unboxing to full set up mode, I know there are youtube videos but most are promotional videos and not unboxing and full set ups..
So in closing here are my issues so far
1. no signal from the guitar to the interface, tuner does not recognize guitar but seems to recognize my organic/acoustic vocals ?
2. I cant log in or register when docked with the ipad in amplitube under settings/account/sign in-register it says to check my username and passcode or get emailed a new one? ( I am fully registered on the IK site ) but under my profile only the hardware and a few of the free apps for the mac are registered, nothing for the ipad apps? and I cant register them.. or having issue doing that.
3. when trying to update the firmware plugged directly to my mac usb port it searches for a device but does not show any device?
4. I am also having issue with simple navigation of the interface from Stomp mode to the other mode and trying to go through presets etc.. no signal from the guitar or not I still feel there is an issue with my device or interface hardware is my gut suspicion it looked like an open box from AMS ? and I am starting to worry with so many anomalies if I didn't get faulty hardware?
It should be plug n play relative easy formatting and maybe it is and I am just not that tech savvy as I was in the past...
Anyway, is there any set up guides and tutorials out there I can try first?
I am awaiting the new set of headphones, I live in remote Alaska so shipping takes about 2weeks lol anyway..
I need some help setting up, any takers?
thank you!
