    I had an Xbox, and I bought Rocksmith, a teaching game for guitar. It came with its own usb cable for plugging into the Xbox! I still have the cable; good to know it might be useful!

    Is it possible to use a usb C at the PC end of the cable and a 6.35 mm jack at the other end for my acoustic guitar that has a Piezo Pickup Transducer in it?

    Lose All Audio Output when I plug in the USB guitar cable.
    It didn't used to do this, I used it for months with no issues, was busy for a couple of weeks, and when I plugged it back in, Silence... I tried switching to other ports, changing the audio device, .. nothing seems to work.
    I want to think the cable is defective, but it Did work, and why should it effect other audio?

    did you hear the noise level on the dirty amp sim ? thats because you are turning the guitar input low to avoid clipping the usb hardware . not ideal . get the behringer um22 or what ever budget interface you can find . my first was a line6 guitar port i paid 15 dollars for . it sounded very good . i used almplitube , th3 and all sorts of vsts in reaper .

      Yes, you can. I use mine for Bias FX. It works fine, but you might get a bit of Latency.
      Adjusting the Buffer Size and Sample Rate can fix that problem, though it gets kind of annoying, because you have to constantly adjust it if you are using a backtrack due to the extra audio being played through your speaker.

      I'm not sure if you could use it with discord, but it can be set as the primary microphone input on your computer, so it's no different than any other microphone that is connected.
      Guitar pedals can be used first, just connect the USB cable to the last guitar pedal. I'm not sure how good that will sound though.

    If you are planning to record covers especially bass covers, don't use usb guitar cables. Once you plug it in your laptop and start recording, you will hear a really loud hum noise that is really annoying and cant be fixed. The bass also gets drowned with the loud humming and also latency
