![]() I haven't actually reamped the signal yet because it's late at night and I don't want to disturb the roommates. It was when I introduced the guitar pedal (an EHX small stone phaser) into the chain that I had those problems from earlier. Definitely a bit too hot given that it's line and all, but it sounds good coming out of the amp. So when I went directly from output three into the amp, bypassing my pedal altogether, I got signal-and a decent sounding one, too. ![]() Let this be a lesson to other folks about reamp boxes So what the hell is going on here?

Now, this could be because I don't have a reamp box, but other strange things are happening. I armed a new track to record from input 2 and it gets no signal at all. I took a 1/4'' cable from Line 3 aka Sub 1 to a guitar pedal, and then another from that pedal into input 2 in my focusrite. I turned on the outputs on the left side of the mixer. I told my DI guitar track to go out to Sub 1. I added a mono output in my I/O settings. One video the guy doesn't even talk about routing the signal.Īnother video the guy does some things like switching the headphones to outputs 3+4 (which I don't know how to do on mine? nor do I think it should even be necessary?) but otherwise I followed him to a tee and nothing happened. I've watched a few and none were helpful-hence why I came here in the first place. Have you tried putting say an active bass through it as a DI box?ĭarrenporter1 wroteThere are several S1 specific videos on YouTube pertaining to reamping. There are a few videos on reamping with Studio One on YouTube. From that output on the interface, you go into the reamp box. Finally, you just send your dry DI guitar track to that output. Then you need to make sure your interface outputs are assigned as outputs in Studio One. I also have other Radial products and they are fantastic too so you can't go wrong with either one. lol.įWIW, I use the ART device and it works great. There are more expensive ones too if you are into paying more than you have to. You really need a reamping box so your pedalboard and/or amp see the correct loads that they would expect seeing from a guitar. To the OP as long as the signal coming in from the microphone is not input monitor enabled in Studio One and feeding the same output that is being sent to the amp you won't have any feedback issues.ĭarrenporter1 wroteTo do it correctly there is more to it than just making sure your levels are ok. And provide some tonal options like low and high end cut filters etc.īut overall re-amp boxes are a good thing and will ensure the best possible result from doing this. Some re-amp boxes go a little further and simulate the equivalent circuit of a guitar as well. Isolation and ground lift options will also prevent the guitar amp from getting an earth loop type hum which can also be a problem. Input stages of the guitar amp can then be set for more normal operation. An adjustable output level is also a good thing allowing you to fine-tune the level going into the guitar amp. So a good re-amp box is going to provide that level shift downwards. one is 600 ohms and the other is several hundred K ohms usually) (using a passive DI in reverse while offering a good impedance match can actually step the signal up from the interface due to the transformer windings not being the same. Some interfaces can output + 4 dBu at the ref level where as many guitar amps are sensitive and might only be expecting signals as low as -20 or even lower. One of the main concerns you will have feeding the output of an audio interface directly into a guitar amp will be a serious level mismatch.

The new 4th generation Nest Thermostat needs you to program it and give it an initial idea of schedule, but it can also let you create three temperature shortcuts to make things quicker. Nest’s 3rd generation Learning Thermostat has learning in the name because that’s a key component of what it does it learns your schedules and habits over time and can adapt your heating or cooling and maximize efficiency by turning down when you’re asleep or away.

Nest’s sales pitch by the way is that getting a smart thermostat can help save you an average of 10-12 percent on heating bills and 15 percent on cooling bills. The latest Nest Thermostat will show you the current temperature on its display and it can also detect humidity levels. The new trim kit (which is pretty nice actually with its flared plate) is specially made for the 4th generation Nest Thermostat also now sells separately from the unit, which likely also contributes to the price drop. Nest also appears to have dumped the ‘Learning’ from the name of this iteration and that’s because more of the onus is now on you. Where the 3rd gen Nest Learning thermostat would have set you back about $329, the new version is a much more affordable $179CAD. New Nest Thermostat 4th generation: What’s new & different?
