The speaker in a guitar amp colours the sound. You can plugg a guitar amp speaker into a hifi system, and you'll hear that it sounds very different compared to a hifi speaker. This colouring is concidered good in guitar amps. Also you should read the ongoing "OT: Using Linux as Bass amp / preamp" thread. -snip- > - The mixer has for every channel a Canon or alternatively a Jack input. > What are they meant for? That is, is a Canon connection more suited e.g. to > mics, or what else? The Canon or XLR connections are balanced inputs, meaning the signal and shielding is not connected. This is supposed to prevent electrical noise. -snip- Aditional tips: http://www.pcmus.com/AudioTips.htm -- Frode Haugsgjerd Norway
