Hiya, I've not been able to find a solution to this anywhere online, so I really hope someone on here can help me out.

I recently purchased a Mustang I, as part of an experiment in my band to exchange demo as a sort of "jamming in seperate locations" kinda thing. Now, I've finally gotten it to work with Fender Fuse, but I can't get it to work with neither Ableton Live Lite Fender Edition nor Amplitube Fender Edition. I've installed the Fender Universal ASIO driver, but the Mustang does not show up as a piece of hardware on the WDM Device list where the video tutorial showed me that it would show up. Can anyone help me out? I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the Fender Universal ASIO driver, but to no avail. The Mustang just doesn't register as a WDM device.

If it's any help, I'm running all of this on a Toshiba Sattelite Pro laptop computer:
Intel Core 2 Duo
2 GHz
3 GB Ram
Windows XP Professional with SP3

It didn't for me at first either. You have to go into Windows' Sound settings and activate it as an input device first.

Start -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Manage Audio Devices -> Internal AUX Jack (Mustang Amplifier)

Click Properties.

Under "Device Usage" change it to say "Use this device (enable)."

Click OK twice, then close Control Panel.

After doing this, reopen AmpliTube and in the configuration windows, you should be able to select the Mustang Amplifier as an input device now.

Hi, thanks for answering : )

Are you by chance running Vista or 7? It may be because I'm running my XP in Danish, but you're instructions don't seem to translate into options in my system. In my Control Panel I have an icon for Sound and Soundunits (I'm approximating translations here, I don't know what they are specifically), but none for Hardware And Sound, and the one for Sound and Soundunits won't let me manage audio devices : (

Yeah, I'm running Windows 7. Let me pull out my laptop running Windows XP...

Start -> Control Panel -> Sound and Audio Devices -> Audio tab.

Check under "Sound Recording" to see if Mustang Amplifier is listed. The amp has to be turned on and plugged in for this to show. When I turned my amp on, Windows XP automatically switched over from the microphone port to the amp for Sound Recording.

I've never actually installed either Ableton or Amplitube on my laptop, so I don't know how those settings work at all. But I will say that when I start recording with "Sound Recorder" it DOES record what my Mustang's putting out through the USB, so I dunno.

Technically none of those adjustments in Control Panel should be necessary. The ASIO driver bypasses any association with the built in Windows drivers and control. The amp should just show up in the ASIO settings window as long as it's connected.

Emberland - How many different devices show up in your ASIO settings window?

I've tried this, but the Mustang doesn't show up there, either. When I search for hardware I can find it, but the system doesn't recognize it, and says it isn't installed. It works fine with FUSE though, for some reason. Maybe I should just get a new laptop. : /

- Loren: Just the one, my laptops Realtek High Definition Audio. It doesn't acknowledge the presence of the Mustang I at all.

Hey, I am having the same problem. When i first bought my amp back a year or two ago, and was using Ableton 8.0.9. , the amp would show real easy called Mustang, and i could play it through the usb and hear it through my speakers, with litterally no work. Now it wont recognise it through the usb like it would before. The computer knows its there, but ableton doesnt recognise it as "Mustang" anymore. If i go through preferences in go on the audio tab in ableton, i can turn it to Asio audio, where it will record, but i cant hear any sound from anything in that program at that point. I also tried using an auxillary cable from the headphones jack on the amp to the mic input on my laptop, which works, but gives me incredibly distorted and fuzzy sound with even the slightest volume, its not clear at all even on a clear amp setup. Does anyone at least know how to get rid of the distortion(i think it might be called clipping but i am not sure).
