On your audio interface send a balanced cable out of a spare output into your re-amp box and a guitar lead from your re-amp box to your amp.

First of all you’ll need to use your DAW to prepare your tracks, in this case we’re using Logic Pro X. So now you’ve recorded your clean D.I you’re ready to start reamping.

The D.I box is placed first in the signal chain because you need to ensure you capture a completely clean (free from fx or distortion) guitar signal, which you’ll then be able to send into an amp. However if you’re planning on recording your amp and reamping later then you’ll need to have a couple of pieces of equipment, the most important of those being a D.I box, reamp box and of course an audio interface. If you don’t have an amp to record with or you’re not wanting to record with your own amp, then all you’ll need to do is plug into your interface and record a clean D.I track. Re-amping means you’re able to get the performance down and worry about tone later. Most of the time you’ll find that an idea hits you in the middle of the night when you’re not able to plug into your noisy amp. Reamping is especially useful if you’re recording in a non-studio setting. If you’re not happy with the original tone you recorded, reamping essentially acts as undo (or redo) button meaning you’re able to keep the same performance but tweak the tone of the amp, audition different pedals and experiment with multiple microphones and placement. Reamping is often something that’s overlooked whilst recording, however it can be a lifesaver if your guitar tones aren’t quite what you’re looking for.Īs the name suggests, reamping is the act of capturing a both a clean D.I and your amped sound simultaneously, therefore enabling you to play it back through any guitar amp at a later date and re-recording that tone.
