Also, any passive DI can send signal both directions. That impedance conversion goes both ways through a passive DI. You can reamp using a passive DI from your interface wired backward to change the signal back to the correct impedance.

It's the poor man's reamp. But it also works really well because AFAIK a reamp box is just a reversed DI with a level attenuator.

For everyone who doesn't wan to shell out the money for the Canvas DI pedal, you can do the same thing with a simple Lehle P Split and a tured off buffered pedal (basicaly every Boss pedal ever) in front of it. ;) You can get a used P Split for around 80 bucks and there are also DIY options to build one. You can buy all the componets from Lehre directly and build it yourself. The P Split can be used as a DI and Reamp box, so you have a multi functional tool (just check out their very in depth manual).

Nice explanations, as always, but wouldn't it be better to use an active DI when you place it right behind the guitar? At least the rule of thumb that I learned is: active source -> passive DI, passive source -> active DI.

No. Active DI's aren't for passive guitars, and passive DI's aren't for active guitars. They're both designed for both.

I'm struggling to find the logical thread behind that advice tbh, it possibly was relevant decades ago, but is an obsolete holdover from a worse technological time. Active DIs have a buffer/unity gain preamp element which perhaps would benefit extremely weak signals, but it wouldn't be correct to categorise all passive signals as weak. Perhaps in the early days of very low output coils on instruments using a passive DI would have resulted in a small level drop - but that's unlikely to be an issue with modern instruments. Similarly it may have been that extremely high output signals would have been an issue for early active DIs, but we've come a long way with these things. I've used both active and passive DIs with a range of different instruments over the years - active and passive, high and low output - and never come across a significant issue in any case.

@@ScienceofLoud I'm no pro, just self taught, that's why I'm asking. Nobody says that it wouldn't work in any combination, but most sources all over the internet still talk about that mentioned rule of thumb regarding active vs. passive DIs. The statements are mostly, that active DIs can handle a larger variety of signals and deliver stronger/cleaner signals with passive sources, sometimes with direkt audio examples of sound/signal quality when the passive source was plugged into active/passive. But maybe you're right and it really doesn't matter that much anymore, especially with such short ways like on a pedal board, when the next preamp/recording device is not far away I can see a certain insignificance.

Very informative as always👍 I’m looking into replacing my Tonex capture box with a reamp box. The Capture seems to lose a little bit of the signal strength which means I need to increase the gain on my interface to compensate. I’ve read that this is because the Capture is an active unit. Does the Canvas reamp lose any signal strength? I’m presuming the volume only attenuates and doesn’t boost the signal?

Okay, I understand the ideas here but I'm stuck on the Re-Amp. How are we getting the recorded DI signal to run through the new signal chain? Are we essentially pressing Play on the recording and outputting it back down through the interface and into the amp? Is that something you can do?
@SleepingLionsProductions
Жыл бұрын
Basically yes. You connect the reamp from one of the balanced outputs of your interface then run it back into your amp+mic setup. Hit play and adjust your level with the reamp box.

I have the Scarlet 18i20 which has 10 line outputs. I connect the reamp to one of those line outs and then in the DAW I can change the channel output to that particular line out and it will send audio for that channel there rather than the main stereo monitor outputs. Any interface that's a step above the most basic ones will have dedicated outputs that can be assigned for purposes like this.

So if I have a raw DI input track recorded and I;m already using digital amp sims and effects, then this application is limited to only the use case that requires transferring the signal back out through physical effects.
