Dan,
I didn't know the VLT could be used as a sound card.Are you sure? I'll answer your question based on it being a sound card. OK here goes.
1.Set BIAB to use MME drivers with it's output to the VLT
2. Plug the guitar into the input of the VLT
3. Plug the thru/guitar out from the VLT into the IN of the Internal card.
4. Set the internal card to use ASIO. Might have to be ASIO4ALL.
5. Open AT3 in standalone
6. Set input to AT3 from the Internal Card/ASIO4ALL
7. set output from AT3 to Internal/ASIO4ALL
8. plug the outs from the Internal card and the VLT into separate channels of the mixer.
My mention of Internal/ASIO4ALL is I'm not sure what will be listed in AT3 for available drivers.Also I doubt your internal card will have ASIO so you'll have to use ASIO for all..



John, I just saw this item. Missed it earlier. I have worked all day on this with some very promising results. First conclusion: I think it is time for me to move my live show on from BIAB to a more flexible application (I know I have said this before , but this time I think I mean it). I have been gigging in BIAB for over 10 years and I finally think I need a change to move to a next level. More about the changes later .

I was able to get the VLT to serve as an external sound card (this thing is so cool) in that I plugged the mic (via XLR) and guitar (via 1/4" plug) and my backing tracks (via USB) into it. I can then route the wet vocals to the PA, and the dry guitar to the computer for processing in AT3-VST and back out again to the VLT via USB and on to the PA. Only need one cable form VLT to PA. I still need to confirm that the midi from my backing tracks is controlling harmonies - but I am optimistic.

Thanks for your advice - it is always appreciated. I do believe a workaround with BIAB may be doable with the dual sound cards but for now I am trying something a little different. Time will tell how it works out.
