clean guitar for later amplification
When I record clean and try and run it through an amp later from my DAW
(unbalanced out from from an aardvark) I get extra hiss, extra noise. What is good practise to record clean to amp later? |

Purchase a reamp box or something similar that is designed to interface your balanced source with the amp. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

Don't know if it's the right thing to do, but it's always worked for me. |

It doesn't sound quite the same because it doesn't present the same source impedance to the amp as a guitar pickup, and you often have to add an attenuator to get the levels right, but it's often a usable substitute. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra.

Aardvark makes me think this is out of your price range, but the best
box around for this sort of stuff is the Millennia Media TD-1. You get a world-class preamp, some useful eq controls, and the guitar impedance in/out stuff you are looking for. If you are into recording vocals, and then re-amping your guitar, this box will step you up to world class in both of those areas. It might seem expensive to you, but in the world of top-flight stuff, its a bargain. |
