Another question about impedance and guitar sounds: I have a Tascam US 122 interface with guitar (hi-z)/line(low-z) switchers on the inputs (2 ins with preamps and 2 insert jacks) and a guitar tube amp with an effects loop preamp out (Fender Hot Rod Deluxe).<br>
<br>If I use my amp&#39;s preamp to colour my tone before going to the interface, will the signal coming from the preamp out be high impedance or low impedance (line). Should I plug the cable into the line level input, guitar (hi-z) input or the insert jack (since it has already been preamplified).<br>
<br>Would all this be worth the trouble? Will using tube preamplification change the attainable tones?<br><br>-Chris<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/5/12 Arda Eden &lt;<a href="mailto:ardaeden@gmail.com">ardaeden@gmail.com</a>&gt;:<br>

But specially designed cards with a direct input solves this problem also. Don&#39;t they ?<div>
