Re: [LAU] Interfacing an electric guitar

De : "jonetsu(a)teksavvy.com" 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. Hi happy Canadian guitarist :) IMHO, best chain for the hardware you describe isguit>DIbox>1010LT>QjackCtl>Guitarix>QJackCtl>1010LT>guit ampif you only want to play guitar with Guitarix FX & modélisation? TIP: don't forget to put a hard limiter before Guitarix out, this (very nice)       software (available in french)))) is able to produce very hard level... HTH, have fun!Fred
