After having build one to NY Dave's drawing, thanks Dave :sam:
(http://www.ionrecords.com/tapeop/ampinterface.jpg) and tested for about 30 minutes, i can say that this will be something i will be using A LOT, if not on every production from now!
I used to run signals back from my desk at -35 to -20 dB to Marshall's and Hiwatt's, so far this worked more or less on percussionsounds and almost never on gtrs cos they sounded to muffles, over-overdriven and with to much side-effects as noise etc...
Now doing the same thing but with the ballinetogtrlevelreamp gives me the possibility to run whatever signal (gtr, bass, percussion, strings!,...) to my amps and it comes out sounding super transparant. Heavy distorted gtrs can be feed back to the same amp to generate roomverb and still stay cristalclear! WOW!! :thumb:
Anyone who want to reamping whatever should definitely consider building some of these boxes. I used the Edcor 10K/600 trannie, connected the centertap to get to the necesary 150 instead of 600.
Could I use the other side to split the same to another amp/fx? Or will this be opposite phase? What could be solved by switching the connection at R1 i assume
In a few days we'll try it on gtrFXpedals,
back to tracking now...
Cheers :guinness: ,
