Line 6 Spiders are a "closed system", but you can run from your guitar to the pedal then from the pedal to the input jack on the amp where you would ordinarily plug in yourr guitar.
<p>Playing a guitar using a PC at home is a simple process that
some audio devices and a computer to an analog line or microphone port on your
sound card to obtain. There are two kinds of freeware, that a user can provide
to the task. Basic freeware that standard on any Windows computer, including
audio drivers free, microphone input, even if the computer's speakers to play.
Users to make recordings of your own burning freeware, however, were interested
in Windows freeware called "Sound Recorder" can do the work in the
most elementary sense. <br />
<p><br />
<p>1. Plug the Phono-style audio cable into the guitar phono
audio jack. <br />
<p><br />
<p>2. Connect the large to small-RCA adapter to the end of the
other side of the RCA cable. <br />
<p><br />
<p>3. Connect the adapter cable and phono large on the back of
the computer through a computer microphone. <br />
<p><br />
<p>4. Adjust audio properties of the system from the Start menu
and Control Panel of your computer to play audio into the microphone port on
the speaker. The exact process of adjusting the settings may be proprietary
software, the sound card came with the computer system vary. If you have
problems, ask the help documentation for software and manual for your computer
sound. On most systems, the microphone volume level using the properties menu
of the extended microphone system sound settings. <br />
<p><br />
<p>5. Set the switch to the guitar pickup - the pickup is a
version of power - the "on" position. Adjust the volume on the
computer so the computer speakers clearly the natural sound of the guitar can
be heard. <br />
<p><br />
<p>6. Play a few notes on the guitar. If your computer speakers
to play the guitar sound, the method proved unsuccessful. <br />
You are probably overdriving the pedal. Reduce the amplitude INTO the pedal and AMPLIFY it more AFTER the pedal.
When digital conversion is done from the input and the input exceeds the input voltage capabilty of the A-D convertor, it effectively "flattops" just like your overdrive on a guitar amp.
Your guitar may be very "hot" having high output. One needs to keep the signal levels in-bounds of what the hardware can handle at EVERY point.
Personally, I like to have all "tone effects", such as wahs, distortions and equalizers in front of "time effects" such as phasers, chorus, flangers and delays. See my set up in the photo. Guitar input is from right to left, starting with the wah pedal.

Yes, unfortunately, USB ports just aren't fast enough for live vocals. Some stereo setups have longer lag times than others, as well. A couple of ms is very noticeable. Have you tried adjusting the settings on the game? Go to "Options" on the Home Screen and select "Calibrate Lag." Here you can delay either your Audio or your Video in 1 ms increments to try to adjust for lag times. You may find a happy medium after adjusting these settings.
When playing video games on an HDTV there can be a slight delay between the input and the picture on the screen, because the TV spends time processing the signal. Most games won't be a problem with this, but rhythm games need to be right on. Your TV may have a "game mode" you can set it to that will sync things up better. Check the on-screen menus for your TV for an option like this.
