Thanks for watching, Christopher!

your video is always easy to learn. awesome job!

you’re the goat man, thank you for all your videos, so helpful

Commercial reamp boxes seem rather expensive for what they contain: I'd probably just knock one together myself. But then I have an EE degree and am comfortable using a soldering iron! Actually though, these days I just use software VST plugin amp and cabinet sims for re-amping; there a lot of quite good ones available. I downsized my studio when I moved back to the UK from the US a year or two ago: couldn't really justify shipping a ton of amps etc. Good job on the video: there's a lot of bogus folklore out there about audio engineering, but your tutorials seem consistently accurate and helpful.

Just a quick add, if you have an interface that lets you rout different signals to different outputs, you do not need to split the signal before the interface with a DI - simply plug the guitar into your interface (given that it has instrument ins, but most nowadays have) and route the Monitoring of it to one specific output of the interface. This output then goes through the reamp box to the amp. This has the advantage that you play with exactly the sound of the input DI signal - ie the sound you will reamp with. At first I was a bit stressed out by how strong the DI signal should be and about dialling in the volume knob of my reamp box, but using this method I can directly control how it will sound later when reamping - because I’m already using the DI signal I will be tracking with later on.

@@carpediem4413 that’s basically what I said. If your focusright is flexible enough in its routing, there is no reason to split the signal with a DI before the interface.

@Raymond B, a reamp box can send sound back into a guitar amplifier so that you can record the unique sound of the guitar amp (or FX pedals).

Огромное спасибо - очень полезное видео, которое мне помогло разобраться во всевозможных коммутациях и роутинге при реампинге.

Great vid, thanks! I have mix of effects pedals - some that support line level inputs, others that I'm not so sure about. Any tips on a chain of effects pedals with varying input/output levels? For example the Mooger Foogers or EHX Memory Man...

I wish if you could do live videos to explain more , smoke comes out of my head very soon when u start explaining. If you do lives , they will be extra helpful // I also was meaning to ask if i can connect my amp head through the sound card

Thanks for this. Made the reamp much clearer for me. Would it be wrong to split the guitar input to come out to the pedal board and also into the interface (clean) and then a thru to an amp (mic on amp). That way you have 3 sources from the one guitar signal.

The outputs from audio interfaces are TRS, yet the input of the Reamp box is XLR. This is dumb...LOL. I don t like using those plug converters, the reamp boxes should have also a TRS input. Very few have. Nice video as usual Kyle, Thank you :)

Hi. Im new to ur channel, while recording audio in laptop, how to stop or filter hiss sound or kind of mild beep sound in laptop?

Nice tutorial! Is there a quality/dynamics degradation while using a re-amp box vs the actual instrument?

@AudioUniversity

Жыл бұрын

I haven’t noticed one. So long as you adjust the gain structure appropriately, it works very well. If you wanted to experiment with dynamics processing before sending to the amp, you certainly could. But without processing on the track, it should theoretically be the same as an instrument connected directly.

How do you add guitar pedals like Distortion to your reamp setup in example 1? When I try I get crazy feedback that I don't get when I normally go from guitar to amp.

Hi! I am having Laney amplifier A Fresco 2 acoustic guitar amplifier with microphone input. I want to record vocal and instrument simultaneously from the amplifier. My amp is having DI out port. Please advise what hardware I required for recording sound through laptop and how to connect.

Weird question: Can I use a DI from a virtual instrument from like Shreddage 3 guitars to do this as well?

One of the best videos. I Have a question ✋ I'm looking everywhere a tutorial about how to use my MacBook Pro with virtual effects pedals etc for a LIVE cession but NO ONE have any instructions about how to do it or what devices or configuration I would need to avoid any damage in my equipment, every video is only focus in studio recording 😕but I'm more focus in LIVE cessions and I don't wanna hear the word studio for now. The equipment I have is: - A Marshall DSL40 amp tube combo. - A MacBook Pro with Amplitube 5 and Guitar Rig 7. - A Universal Audio Arrow audio interface. - A Behringer midi foot controller FBC1010. So... can I connect the mono output from my audio interface directly to my Marshall input? Do I need a reamp box or a similar device and what would be the configuration? I would appreciate your help . Thank you in advance.

What if using the phone output of the audio interface, is there any noise or impedance problem?

A beginner to music composing here asking, im having trouble with my cable routings. I currently have a NUX-mg30 as my pedal and a focusrite scarlet for a soundboard, studio one as my DAW. I have my guitar routed as, guitar - pedal - focusrite - pc - DAW. I inserted a backing track which worked perfectly but as soon as i select the track instrument i want to use (electric guitar) there are none available. I tried using the ASIO4All driver and it did work, with an exception. Static noises everywhere except the backing track (mp3). Im very confused about this whole situation, additional insights will be appreciated thanks!

I have a question. I’m not micing up to the amp, I don’t have a need for that. What’s the difference between recording from the DI box, directly from the audio interface (from the guitar), or recording from the reamp box ? I have a focus rite 2i2, the j48, the radial reamp box, a suhr reactive load, and Marshall jcm 2000. I’ve recorded directly from the Scarlett and suhr, and used the reamp in the chain and I can’t tell the difference really. Is there a difference?

Does a Reamp box act the same as a DI box?

I work that way you teach here. Just like your DAW, Cubase allows using external inserts too, what is very cool when I want to use my own pedals over an already recorded track. But until today I haven’t tried using a send to an FX track, inserting my external effects in this FX track. I am not sure I will be able to print that, because Cubase doesn’t generate audio files over FX or group tracks. I guess in this case I should use a duplicated track and insert the external pedals in the duplicated one, and later balance the mix between dry and wet.

Can I use a regular DI Box inverting its use? instead of output being input from the interface, and input as output being in instrument level?

@AudioUniversity

Жыл бұрын

You can do this with some passive DI boxes. However, it’s designed to take a signal from instrument level to mic level. In this case you’ll be going from line level to instrument level, so you’ll need to tweak the gain structure accordingly. It’s best to use a reamp box.

Why would you use a DI box before the interface when interfaces such as the RME have an instrument level input on the front and are able to take a guitar input directly?

@AudioUniversity

The DI is not necessary in these cases. I still use one for the ‘thru’ output to the amp and the sound quality. However, if you’ve got an instrument input on your interface, a DI isn’t needed.

This often results in a lot of noise, because you have to send such a low level signal out of the interface. I’ve heard that BOSS pedals can be used in a similar way to reamp boxes, but haven’t tried it myself.

Hey i have a question for you. I have been looking at the extc-stereo for awhile now. Im wondering if its worth it. I have an audient id44 mkii interface and running sends and returns on it are not easy to do because of gain staging i have to do. Some pedals work and others are really hard to dial is without serious feedback issues. All my pedals take line level but i still have issues with say my chase bliss pedals and have to dial down the gain way down on 1/2 and 3/4 in abletons external audio effect utility and it doesn’t always fix this issue. My main question is will this the radial stereo reamp box help to fix this? I may suck it up and swap out interfaces for and rme ucx because i also think the problems may be arising from the audient. Thanks

But wait... there's an instrument level switch on my interface (Focusrite Scarlett)??
