AUD114 – Wk2 – amps/re-amping/DI boxes

This week Rose took us into the studio and thoroughly went through the different effects and sounds you can get out of a guitar amp without needing any pedals (she used a VOX amp – i think).
We also broke down how the signal flow of re-amping practically works.
How the signal from a DAW can be sent back out into the live and into and amp and recreating the guitarists performance while having it sound exactly like its being played through.

Re-amping – Sending a recorded (DI’d) signal back through an amplifier and recording that.

DI Box – captures the impedance of a signal and keep that unaltered from the amp/other effects. *you can get a DI recording from anything with a 1/4 jack

Although I don’t know if I will remember how to do what was shown in class properly, I do think this will help with understanding the signal flow relative to the patch bay better.
