Re: Interfacing an electric guitar

Hi

First gratulations on your new guitar.

Now to your questions, yes you can use the DI and the 1/4" cable (TS?), and that would be the better approach, 
as opposed to connecting the headphone amp.
I wouldn't use the headphone amp from the amplifier as the impedances will most likely not match.

If you've got a preamp and microphone you could mic up the amp and record that.

I'm have used rackarack, but mostly I use guitarix, but that's personal preference.

Have fun!

Cheers

Hello all,

Just got an electric guitar.  First time.  Now putting on a new set of
strings.

Got a 1/4" wire and a passive direct box that's already used for a
Wavedrum.  Got also a small guitar amp with an headphone out jack, as
an option.  The audio card is a M-Audio 1010LT.

Can I simply take the 1/4" wire from the passive direct box and connect
it to the guitar ?  I believe there's a guitar processing app out there
called something like rackarrack or such.  Does this work through jackd
as in doing the audio routing using qjackctl ?

Alternatively if I want the amp's sound and processing, I can simply
use the amp's headphone out, although I'd like to try the computer
based only interface and processing.

Cheers.
