We've compiled a list of the most frequently asked questions regarding RIFF order & shipping and their answers.

 

What is an audio interface?

An audio interface is the hardware that connects your guitar to your computer or mobile device. It converts your guitar's analog signal into digital audio information that your computer can process. It also enables you to hear your signal through your studio monitors or headphones.

 

How do I set up the RIFF audio interface?

  1. Use a standard 1/4" guitar cable to plug your guitar into RIFF.
  2. Connect RIFF to your computer or mobile device with the supplied micro-USB cable.
  3. Connect your personal headphones or studio monitors (speakers)
  4. Open the software you’d like to use. RIFF comes with our award-winning guitar processing software, BIAS FX 2 LE.
  5. Select RIFF as your input in the software settings.
  6. Get ready to jam, practice, and record!

What extra gear do I need in order to use RIFF?
