#REAMPING WITHOUT A REAMP BOX FULL#
#REAMPING WITHOUT A REAMP BOX WINDOWS#

Is this a real Reamp box, or a generic reamp box? If anyone's got any sensible suggestions, I'd be very grateful

#REAMPING WITHOUT A REAMP BOX WINDOWS#

Here is a sample of the result through the crunch channel of the ampĠ:12 to 0:21 is the second monitor (display) switched onĠ:24 to 0:45 - me creating / switching windows on the computer Everything in my building is on the same circuit anyway. I tried running everything off one socket with the same result. When the computer is opening / shutting windows, a temporary noise occurs, and when the machine is processing a higher load (ie when I'm running my DAW software, it introduces a more intense buzz)

Ground lift makes no difference to this situation. With one of my computers, reamping via a balanced output to the reamp box, then a short balanced lead to the amp is fine, but with my main rig, It's really bad, and turning on one of my dual screen monitors introduces another hum. …also, a reamp box can give you the connections you’d ideally have to send something (like a vocal) through some guitar effects (like delays, phasers, or weird distortion boxes) and back in via DI.The noise is not 50/60hz, although upon analysis, some of it appears to be 150Hz hum. only having to have that loud bass amp pushing a loud 6X10 cab for the 5 minutes to find the right spot for the mic(s) and the 3 minutes necessary to play the song out through the reamping box into the amp then back into the daw via a nice mic/pre/converter setup.

He can record his bass DI into his interface, send me the edited files, and I can record his fantastic, perfectly edited and perfectly executed playing through my collection of amps, mics, pres, etc. He also lives 2 hours away from me so he can’t just stop by. A bass player I know lives in an apartment, doesn’t own any sort of respectable bass amp, and doesn’t own any mics that would do a good job capturing low end. Rather than having your 102db guitar amp on for 6 hours as you’re double tracking (and tracking and tracking and fixing mistakes and punching in and tracking some more and waiting for the guy with the stereo to drive by) all three rhythm guitar parts on your amazing 8-minute opus, you only have to have the amp on for the amount of time it takes to play each guitar part out to the amp once.Īnother use for reamping: I have a couple really killer amps including a nice-sounding Ampeg tube bass amp. You can spend 6 hours getting the most perfect guitar takes recorded, spend a little time editing the perfect guitar takes into perfect guitar parts (which is easier to see now because the DI, not a distorted guitar signal, is recorded to the DAW) then send those guitar parts out to an amp that will only have to be loud for the amount of time it takes to play each guitar part out of the DAW one time – you just send that DI guitar signal out of the DAW, into the reamp box, then out to the amp/cab which will play back your perfectly edited and recorded pure guitar signal.

You could record a DI guitar track and monitor through an amp modeling system at any time of any night or any child’s naptime.

Tom, re-amping is worth the trouble if you’ve got a situation in which you’re not able to run your guitar amps full throttle all day, every day, any time you’d like.
