I reamp all the time with my EMU interface....I can do it with analog, spdif(coax or optic)...But the trick is the ASIO patch assignments for my EMUinterface to assign some particular dry track to the output that is connected to whatever is doing the processing...So I think it has to do with your Profire ASIO patch mix...or whatever it is called...In the EMU world it is called ASIO Patchmix...sets up the routing and the realtime hardware monitoring...

Like Zap said, do what is easier...

for myself, i record the dry over spdif, and go analog out with my wet signal, and arm 2 tracks, record them both.

assuming you have full SPDIF I/O's on your interface you could easily reamp digitally later... and simply monitor the wet, if you don't want to arm a track and record it initially....

i'm not overly fussed about staying all digital myself... since the end result is analog playback... but i do stay digital wherver it's easy enough to do so.

Holy crap people are getting lost on what the DI on my interface is.

Ok, lets try this again. My goal is to reamp keeping it digital (96Khz).
The suggestion was SPDIF

Ok I like that suggestion but I want to use the input on my Interface (MAUDIO Profire 2626 instrument input channel 1) other wise known as a DI.

So I would plug my guitar into my interface, then route the signal that I create from that through the spdif out on my Profire 2626 interface to the POD HD PRO

From there I would send that signal back out of the POD HD PRO on the SPDIF OUT to my Profire 2626 SPDIF IN. connect that to another track so I have two Tracks simultaniously recording but I would be able to rerecord the wet signal from the POD HD PRO over and over again by sending the Dry signal I recording THROUGH MY INTERFACE, PROFIRE 2626, thus creating a reamped signal.

This would allow me to do it live, and rerecord my wet signal over and over again. Or is that unnecessary and or is it possibly to reamp using usb or spdif, meaning can I send the dry signal back through the POD HD PRO without having to reroute it.

KEEPING it digital.

Wait but then how would I run my dry input back through the pod?

Guitar input POD out via s/pdif to interface. Select dry on the s/pdif menu page on the POD. I know the POD has a DI out anaolgue which I think is what you are referring to.

Reamping is as described.

correction

Guitar>DI input on interface>OUT SPDIF on interface>IN SPDIF on POD HD PRO>OUT SPDIF on POD HD PRO>IN SPDIF on interface.

It would enable me to listen to the POD HD PRO "live" while I record my DI, and still enable me to reamp it as many times as I want.

Yes but the "DI INPUT" is on the interface as I showed in the example, there is more than one type of input and the Instrument input is specifically made to convert to DI, but yes that would mean I would want to send a prerecorded DI through the POD HD PRO from my DAW.
