A suitable DI box can fool a guitar into thinking that it is connected to a typical guitar amp by presenting it with a suitable high‑impedance input, and can pass a balanced mic‑level signal on to a mic preamp (such as on a console or audio interface). This means some ‘trickery’ is required when interfacing guitars and amplifiers with studio equipment that’s designed to work with conventional mic‑ or line‑level signals - and that, of course, is where reamping and DI boxes come in. Similarly, electric guitar amplifiers need to see a guitar‑like level and source impedance to sound their best. I'm sure you've already checked the connections.Įdit: Added Quantum out spec and emphasized output level.Ever wanted to run already recorded signals through a guitar amp or stompbox? One of these boxes could be all you need.Įlectric guitars and basses fitted with passive pickup systems can be very fussy devices, particularly when it comes to the circuity they are plugged into.

Don't know where to point you, other than the manual or tech support.īTW, my ProRMP XLR connector could have a tighter fit. It's likely to have an operating level setting or some kind of output level adjustment. The Quantum specifications show a max output level of +18dBu. I'm not familiar with the Quantum, but as mentioned in the above post(s), definitely make sure the output operating level is set to +4dB. I have the ProRMP's 'output level' control backed-off from the max and set around noon. Probably could run the average level even lower. The peaks are usually in the single digits. I have used a wide range of DI'd average levels in StudioOne - with signals in the "-" high teens, anywhere from -20dB to -15dB. Here are some thoughts:ĭefinitely good that you have balanced out from the Quantum to the ProRMP.
I can usually match the guitar vs ProRMP levels at the amp really closely. I also have a Radial ProRMP, and have not experienced the same issues with low levels. Is the Quantum set for those output levels"? Where can I verify that level is set correctly? Now when you say that "The RMP is expecting +4 dBu as well coming towards it. PresonusAaron wroteI am currently using a balance TRS to XLR to the Reamp box. Even with a balanced lead if the Studio One-reamp level is way down maybe you are tracking too quietly and need to record louder. An unbalanced lead may be messing up the RMP input impedance as well. After adjusting the control on the RMP both levels should be very close.Ī proper balanced lead from Quantum to the RMP will add 6 dB of signal level compared to an unbalanced connection. Then connect the re-amp pedal from Studio One and play the guitar track you have recorded. plug your guitar directly into the amp and set for a modest level or basic overall level. I assume it is already.Ĭheck as per the instructions as well. Is the Quantum set for those output levels. The RMP is expecting +4 dBu as well coming towards it. I would be using a TRS balanced lead from either the main out or one of the other line outs from the Quantum to an XLR male connector to go into the preamp pedal. It is transformer isolated and provides the right input impedance to match the output impedance from the Quantum. It takes the high level line level signal from your interface and drops it down to guitar levels suitable for an amp. The Radial ProRMP is a passive re amping box. The DI is not actually required in the re-amping process.
