Members Vytas Posted July 25, 2008 Members Share Posted July 25, 2008 Anyone use a REAMP? I got one of these and tried to use it last night without any success. I played back a track through Reaper into my Presonus Firestudio Project. The original track was recorded clean. I set up my guitar amp as I normally would. It is a VOX ad25VT. It was set on a distortion setting. The sound on the new track is very faint, and there's a lot of hissing going on. I ran 1/4 to 1/4 out of the back main outs from the presonus, into the input/XLR on the reamp. another 1/4 to 1/4 out of the reamp into the input on the amp, and a 1/4 to 1/4 plugged into the XLRinput on the presonus input. 1 cable is 3 feet long, the other two are 6 feet long. Should I be micing the amp? Is it because I'm using lineout from the amp? Just curious as I am in an apartment and cranking the amp is not always an option with neighbors haha.

Members Rear Naked Posted July 25, 2008 Members Share Posted July 25, 2008 seems weird to reamp guitars and use a line out. cant help you though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chaosmonger Posted July 25, 2008 Members Share Posted July 25, 2008 Yeah, reamping and using a line out kinda defeats the purpose ... duh .... weird. However, I don't believe that's the cause for your problem. Check that your Firestudio----->reamp cable is a balanced one (it's gotta have stereo plugs, and the calble also has to be stereo). A normal instrument cable won't do the trick on that position (It will be OK for the reamp---->amp position, though). Here you have some good reading to learn how to reamp properly.http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/production-tips/290714-preparing-your-tracks-reamping-guide.html Hope it helps!
