Reamping

[test_recordings]

Anyone here do it? I know it's super easy to just do digital in the box but I want to incorporate some hardware processors and stuff eventually.

Do it with a sub bass thru a bass amp. Then layer it with a sine sub. Woi. Dub reggae tone.

Re amping may require a reamp box tho. Which works like a backwards di box I guess

[test_recordings]

What bass amp are you using? I used to have a Hartke 3500 with a VX410 and 115

[Samuel_L_Damnson]

I've only dome it in uni and in the studio. But usually use fender bassman head with a really neutral cab. Usually 12"x4 cab. U rly like the fender bass amp sound tbh. Hartke is definitely usuallyore defined tho.

Valve amp? Hartke makes metal cone speakers, destructively defined sound. I had paper ones though. I think a 1x15 would suit my Fender Jazz, want to build my own amp.

I particularly want to blast out some synths on a heavy amp. 6550 valves could work well, or KT88

[Samuel_L_Damnson]

Idk much about valves. The fender head had them tho. Yea my mate has a hartke combo amp with a metal cone and it was nice.

[test_recordings]

I love valves, they beat the shit out of silicon for detail and power. Bit of a bitch at lower power levels though, they need running hot to sound the best. Did you know that practically every guitar amp in the world is based on the Fender Bassman? The Marshall JTM 45 is essentially a copy of it, and then almost everyone copied Marshall.

Do you recording the guitar dry then send it through an amp later?

So what are you re-amping? Guitar? Bass? A Sub??

Theres a LOT you can do inside and out of the box, it just depends on the sound that your after.

Im assuming you have a dry signal or your recording that youll use. The process in itself is straight forward, just take a dry signal (which you usually record at the same time as your wet (if your smart)) and run it though your new amp/cab/sim/ect.

Your talking about bass amps, but im still not 100% sure what your trying to do.

[Samuel_L_Damnson]

u never re amped a DI signal?

[test_recordings]

I've never reamped anything to be honest, thought I'd just start a general to see what the heads get up to.

Crimson, as OP for me personally, I want to make use of outboard (analogue) hardware.

[Samuel_L_Damnson]

Reamping guitar anD bass DI is standard practice. But what ibwas saying before is that if u re amp a sine wavesub thru a fender bass man or equivalent u can end up with a warm saturated sub not that different to a dub reggae flatwound bass guitar sound

[Samuel_L_Damnson]

Also its interesting that Marshall used the baseman as the design basis for their amps. It's almost ironic.
