I wondered if I such a DI box would make sense in my
recording setup :
bass ---> mixing console ---> soundcard
How useful would it be to insert a DI ?
bass ---> DI --> mixing console ---> soundcard
A guitarist friend of mine has tried to convince me so, but I did not
exactly grasp the whole argument ... I would have thought that the
console already serves as a preamp, but I may miss some point ?
Thanks for advice.
It should sound better using a DI since it will match the impedance.
What type of input are you using on the mixing console?
Borrow your friend's DI to hear the difference for yourself.
