Giorgos02 Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Sorry if this was answered before... I just got the Scarlett 2i2 and I am a complete noob. My setup is: Guitar-->Pod-->Interface-->Daw I mostly want to learn how to record dry and wet guitars at the same time, and then how to re-amp the dry guitars, so I can listen to my tone and then tweak the patch for best results.

silverhead Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 You need an audio interface that has at least 4 audio inputs/outputs (2 stereo pairs). The Scarlett 2i2 won't do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverhead Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Correct. You won't be able to reamp them with the Scarlett 2i2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giorgos02 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 Heyo, anyone can do the re-amp thing, without having any audio interface. I just did it using only my Pod HD500X. Thanks to this guy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Cool - I have never done that. Thanks for the info.This may satisfy the OP's requirements although it still doesn't allow you to record wet and dry at the same time, which he said he wanted, and he doesn't need his Scarlett.The other thing to note from the video is that you cannot monitor any other playback tracks through the speakers while reamping - so it's difficult to tell dynamically how your reamp sound will sit in the overall mix. You have to reamp, monitor the mix, guess on how to tweak the reamp tone, tweak it when done monitoring, ... repeat. I'm not sure, but I think Line 6 Don's emphasized instruction to decease the hardware monitoring may allow you to monitor using headphones while reamping.

amsdenj Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I'd recommend using something like S-Gear for recording, and always record dry guitar input. The HD500X is a good live device, but there are better and more flexible solutions for recording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
