I just make what I need for signal converting (transformers). I always use combinations of my Lehle P-Splits, Iso transformers, in-line converters, adapters etc. I've used them before and know about them but I can't say which model is best honestly. Funny enough, I've never owned a Reamper specifically to be honest. There's nothing wrong with the Macguyver method and it may even sound fine actually, but probably not as good as a Radial. This is stuff to use when in a jam and nothing else available for the moment, but for long term best quality results get the reamper for that. It will go from low to high impedence and can turn it into an unbalnaced cnnection as well for going back into the amp. Another, diy cheap-o fix is to use an inline transformer like for mics. The quality of those components and design of the circuit is what makes people like one better than another. A true splitter box usually has a transformer inside so all those issues are minimized or eliminated. Only experimentng will tell if it acceptable enough for you. (side note, never use a y cable to sum anything) The thing with the cheap y cable is it will work but can often introduce noise, ground/phase issues or weaker signal etc.If not then it's your lucky day. A splitter and a Y-cable are the same thing basically. It can take that line level signal and turn it into unbalanced and make the impedence proper for a guitar amp input. This is why a reamper would work good in this case. It will techincally work and is safe though, it just may not sound as good as it could. This is good for the input, but the outputs are balance and line level, which apparently isn't alterable and it's not good for amp inputs. The manual for your interface says you gotta change in the interface software for it to become an instrument input, which changes the impedence and makes it an unbalanced connection as well. then converted again on the way out for the d/a conversion, then again on the way back into it. Yes, the signal will get digitized going through the interface. If I'm decided to get a DI box and eventually a re-amp box, what should I look for in those as far as specs goes? I'm completely in the dark here.Īnything else I'm missing, like advantages of having a buffered signal on stage and etc.? Main use will be at home.Couldn't the audio interface do it as well? but in order to re-amp the guitar, I'll need a re-amp box, or can the DI do it also?. So then I could re-amp the whole recording, assigning different settings than those previously used to monitor the recording. Is the guitar signal filtered in this manner? plugging the guitar directly and assign an output into the amplifier input. I could supposedly do this with the audio interface. Why would I need (or don't need) a DI box? Ok, to record the guitar direct into the audio interface and have a parallel out to amp/modelers.I'm not double tracking, I'm balancing these 6 sources, so it gives an interesting thick and dense stereo image of the guitar. I'm mixing these 6 channels so I get a pretty damn nice guitar tone. ![]() 2x Captor internal Speaker Sim (analogue cab simulation).2x Captor Dry out (for the WoS plug in for cab simulation).Triaxis' stereo Record Outs (analogue cab simulated outs).2x Captor 8Ohm so I can record direct into the audio interface.Īt this moment, I'm monitoring/recording my rig with 3 stereo channels:.Triaxis + G-Force + 2:Fifty power amp stereo rig, MIDI controlled by Roland FC300 MIDI board.Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 2nd gen audio interface.
