AudioFuse - Tips & Tricks

The AudioFuse has few secret functions that can be activated with a standalone procedure. (Without a computer) 

First few explanations for those who don't know much about the Reamping.

Reamping allows to output a recorded signal from your computer through the AudioFuse, to an amplifier at the correct impedance.

This can be very convenient if you want to process your recorded tracks later after a recording session, as you can take your time, carefully fine tune your recording settings (Amplifier, microphones, etc..) and get the best from your recording session, even if the musicians are not in the studio anymore.

You can also output the sound from a virtual instrument into an amplifier in order to make it more alive & realistic.

To process your tracks with the reamping function, please do as below:

• Open the AudioFuse Control Center
• Enable the "FROM PHONE 2" + "RE AMPING" switch.
• Eventually turn on the "GROUND LIFT" switch if a ground loop noise is noticed.

• Once "reamping" is enabled, connect the Speaker B Left Output to your guitar amplifier.
• Playback your previously recorded track
• Record the reshaped audio from your amplifier to your DAW with your favourite microphone.

One of the AudioFuse interesting feature is  the possibility to control your speakers volume separately.

You can set your speaker B output volume to be controlled by the Phone 2 volume potentiometer, while the speaker A output is still controller by the main volume encoder.

To do that, this is very simple, you simply have to open the AudioFuse Control Center, and enable Speaker B: "From Phone 2"

That's it, your Speaker B volume should now be controlled by the Phone 2 potentiometer.

First you will need to have two AudioFuse units plugged in with the Power supply unit and the main USB cable (Arturia cable).

In order to aggregate two AudioFuse units, please go to the Utilities > Audio Midi setup > Window > Audio Devices.

• First, please make sure your two AudioFuse are properly listed.
• Click on the small “+” icon on the bottom left corner of the interface, and select “Create aggregate device”

  

• Then, on the right side, select the two AudioFuses.

  

• A single 16 Inputs & 16 Outputs Aggregate Device should now appear in the list.
