Behringer V-Amp Pro – Part II – Basic Software Windows

For the last 3 years I have been on Youtube, I have been using this friendly little device to drive my sound for the videos. It has been quite a godsend, and has been used for everything from rehearsal, to recording demos, to making guide-guitar tracks in a professional recording studio, to once again, making my videos on youtube. This is not just one video, but a series, in which I show how I create the “magic” using this thing. Most people who have a V-Amp Pro, I assume at least, don’t know that they can patch the device into their computer and edit it with some V-Amp Software (downloadable from Behringer’s Website). It’s a little more tricky than some more modern amp modelers because it uses MIDI (Musicial Instrument Digital Interface, sort of a Network for Musicial instruments if you will), which most people are not as acquainted with as they are USB (which is a serial interface used for all kinds of devices including amp modelers). In This video, I go over the two of the three basic windows I use the most in the V-Amp Editor software, the configuration window, and the Patch/Bank window. Oh, and I dunno if I put it in the video, but a useful hotkey setup to use in the patch/bank window is ALT+A to “audition” a selected patch. For those interested, the software will run on a low end Pentium (we’re talking 1995 era PC’s here) with a decent amount (32 Megabytes of RAM), running at least Windows 95 OSR2 if not Windows 98 SE. It’s basically just a piece of MIDI …
