When the HeadRush Pedalboard's USB port is connected to your computer, you can select and use the
HeadRush Pedalboard as a 24-bit audio interface, enabling you to play audio through it or to send its audio signal
to the computer. It can use sample rates of 48 kHz or 96 kHz.
Important Note for Windows Users: Before connecting the HeadRush Pedalboard to your computer, download
the necessary drivers from
To use the HeadRush Pedalboard as an audio interface with your computer, open your computer's Control
Panel (Windows) or System Preferences (Mac OS X), open its sound/audio settings, and select HeadRush
Pedalboard as the device for recording/input and/or for playback/output.
The HeadRush Pedalboard can send four separate audio signal channels to your computer. Before recording the
HeadRush Pedalboard's audio signal into your digital audio workstation (DAW), select the channel/channels you
want to record:
1: the left channel of the master outputs with all active effects applied.
2: the right channel of the master outputs with all active effects applied.
3: a mono channel of the guitar input with no effects applied.
4: identical audio signal to 3.
The HeadRush Pedalboard can receive four separate audio signal channels from your computer. The channels are
named and routed as follows:
1: the left channel of your computer's output audio signal, which will be sent directly out of the HeadRush
Pedalboard's master outputs and phones output.
2: the right channel of your computer's output audio signal, which will be sent directly out of the HeadRush
Pedalboard's master outputs and phones output.
3: a mono channel of your computer's audio signal, which will be sent back through the HeadRush Pedalboard
(see

Reamping

below).
4: not used in this scenario.
Important: Remember to set your DAW's master outputs to be sent to 1/2.
Reamping
Reamping is a process that adds the tone coloration of an amp to a pre-recorded audio signal—in this case,
sending audio from your DAW through the HeadRush Pedalboard and then recording it back into your DAW. This
is useful for saving time because you can change the sound of an already-recorded guitar track without having to
manually play the same part again.
To use the HeadRush Pedalboard to reamp an audio signal:
1. In your DAW, make sure HeadRush Pedalboard is selected as your audio interface for both recording/input
and playback/output.
2. Assign the output of the desired track to 3.
3. On the HeadRush Pedalboard, tap the  button in the upper-right corner of the screen, and tap Global Settings.
4. In the Global Settings screen, tap Reamp next to USB Mode.
Also, make sure the Sample Rate is set to the same sample rate as the one in your DAW. To change the
Sample Rate, set USB Audio to Off first, select the correct sample rate, set USB Audio to On again, and restart
your DAW.
5. In your DAW again, create a new audio track and assign its input. For a stereo input signal, select 1/2. For a
mono input signal, select 1.
6. Locate the point in your track where you want to start reamping.
7. On the HeadRush Pedalboard, select the rig, models, or other parameters to achieve the sound you want.
8. In your DAW, start audio recording. The track you want to reamp will be sent through the HeadRush Pedalboard
and recorded into the audio track you created earlier.
