Low-Latency Guitar Recording: Setting Up Guitar Rig in Cubase with Yamaha AG06

This week, I took my 4th job via the website Fiverr. I was contacted by Luke who needed some help setting up Guitar Rig and Cubase.

Luke and I used Fiverr messaging to confirm his requirements and arrange a time for the hour’s lesson. At the start of our lesson, I called Luke on WhatsApp and set up a remote desktop connection using AnyDesk.

This is how we spent our hour:

Confirmed that Guitar Rig was installed correctly on Luke’s PC
Confirmed Cubase was installed
Showed Luke the correct settings for his ASIO driver in Cubase.
Explained what Latency is and how it relates to his guitar effects

Explained to Luke the correct positions for the knobs on his Yamaha AG06 Mixer

I didn’t have this mixer in front of me but I pulled up a Google image in order to guide Luke

Diagnosed why Luke’s foot controller wasn’t working with Guitar Rig and advised him of the correct controller he needed to use.
Made test recordings in Cubase to confirm all the software and hardware now working.
Spent time making sure Luke was confidently able to do these basic recording steps for himself.
Advised Luke on some drum plug-ins that might be a useful upgrade to his system.

At the end of the hour’s lesson, Luke was happy that he was now able to use his software and was kind enough to leave me this nice review:

Paul handled my audio issues easily, while explaining the basics of Cubase and giving me some helpful tips. Would recommend to any other beginners daunted by music software and setup.

Thanks, Luke! Happy to help and here for any other Cubase or Guitar Rig users who need support with any aspect of their setup.
