Its not meant for direct guitar connections! You might try a line level device like your laptop and listening to the headphone outs on the alesis to make sure it works.]]>https://chipmusic.org/herr_prof2020-06-24T19:12:57Zhttps://chipmusic.org/forums/post/263753/#p263753<![CDATA[Re: Help!!! Alesis MIDIverb ii]]>Yeah... I plugged the output of my laptops preamp into it, and the alesis into the amp... and it made clicking noises and the computer crashed and had to reboot...
Also I don’t have a di box or an amo with an effects loop, so...

Alesis MIDIverb ii]]>Try plugging something else in, like your laptop, just to verify that the effect actually works. The output signal of guitars is very low indeed.]]>https://chipmusic.org/frantic2020-06-23T17:41:03Zhttps://chipmusic.org/forums/post/263746/#p263746<![CDATA[Help!!! Alesis MIDIverb ii]]>Hey everyone, a while ago I picked up an Alesis midiverb ii at a local thrift store, and I can’t seem to get it to work properly. It’s mix knob seems to be creating a lot of noise, and I read somewhere that this might be because I’m plug in the guitar directly into the alesis instead of using a preamp to get the gain lower, therefore less noise. Ive read a lot of stuff from different places but I can’t seem to get it to work I haven’t tried using a preamp yet but when I plug the guitar in, the green signal LED doesn’t want to turn on no matter how high I turn the input knob up. I can get sound to come through to my amp but none of the effects ever work and it just seems to work like a crappy amplifier.
This thing cost me around two dollars and I know how valuable it is so I’d really like to get it working Any help is much appreciated thanks!
