How do I record my guitar from my Fender® Bronco™ 40 amplifier?

While your Bronco™ 40 amplifier can output audio through USB, it cannot receive audio input through USB. Therefore, output from any audio app, including AmpliTube Fender SE, must be handled by an external source. This source can be your computer's soundcard or audio interface and speakers. In order to configure the driver and audio settings for AmpliTube Fender SE please follow these step-by-step instructions.


 

For Windows computers:

1. Download and install the Fender ASIO driver here: Fender Universal ASIO Driver
2. Launch AmpliTube Fender SE and then open the Audio Setup menu found under "Settings."
3. In the first drop down menu, select ASIO as the driver type.
4. In the Input Audio Interface drop down menu, select Fender Universal ASIO.

5. Now click on the "Panel..." button, near the bottom of the Audio Setup window to open up the ASIO Settings window.
6. The ASIO Settings window will list all possible inputs and outputs. Each input or output can be toggled on and off by clicking the power button next to each item in the list. Make sure the Bronco 40 Amplifier is enabled as the input. It may be necessary to disable all outputs except the one you wish to use. It may take some experimenting to find the one that works best. NOTE: Click on the "+" box to expand each item.

For Macintosh computers:
1. Launch AmpliTube Fender SE and then open the Audio Setup menu found under "Settings."
