    Super cool build. Worth pointing out that a balanced TRS patchbay will accommodate unbalanced TS cables without issue. All that happens is the ring connector in the socket shorts to the sleeve of the plug, which isn't a problem because it doesn't connect anywhere. Plus, both the input of the re-amp box and the output from the DI are balanced, reducing the total unbalanced cable run and potentially reducing noise.

    Useful! I’m just putting together a synth/pedal board mix and this offers a lot of useful advice. I wasn’t aware of the reverse polarity leads. These will save me a lot of stress over plugging things in and out. In the past I killed two very expensive pedals before fully understanding the difference between +/-

  • @Steven-u5w

    Yes, unfortunately rat mount gear under pedals do not have crowbar protection. So you have to make sure the polarity is correct and one good way of doing this is to have a avo metre or a multimeter and check the polarity of all your leads before you connect your pedals and check with your pedal manual my previous home studio setups. I always filtered the mains coming in. You can ease quite easily do this these days with plug boards already built for this purpose it's nice to know that these days more pedals are having line noise lift which is excellent feature very crucial and important I recall the days when we had to DI most things I apologise if this sound is technical God bless

    *** Still don’t understand how you used the patch bay to allow you to use multiple FX pedals chained in any order?
    (I own the same Behringer patch bay)
    Here is my gear Im trying to use to duplicate what you’re doing …..
    Cioks DC-7 & DC-8 (Power supplies)
    Two Line 6 HX Stomps (Multi FX Pedals)
    Two Electro Harmonix (Freeze FX Pedals)
    4 Distortion Pedals (JHS Bonzai & AT+ etc…)

  • @AmiliaCaraMia

    If you wanted to set up a dedicated pedalboard for 'reamping' specifically, you could wire it up like a traditional pedalboard correct? With everything running in series to one another. The patchbay is to easily swap the order of things?

    Wow, I see you use Moog’s Sound Studio 3 ! Which pedals would you recommend to use in combination with the Sound Studio 3? Would you use those pedals by using them each sepratley (DFAM, Subharmonicon, etc. ) or just connecting them in a chain just by using Sound Studio’s 4 channel box. ✌

    • @RecordingMag
      @RecordingMag  2 роки тому

      I don't actually have the Sound Studio, I had all of the Moog units individually prior to its release. As such, I run each Moog into the patchbay and use various pedals one at a time. I do not sub-mix into the pedals usually unless I am adding a global reverb.

  • @ILoveTelecasters
    @ILoveTelecasters 4 роки тому

    If you'd use a stereo reverb, you'd only need one revamp, right? Since the mono guitar signal first hits the reamp, then the reverb, which outputs a stereo signal to the AI

    • @RecordingMag
      @RecordingMag  3 роки тому

      It depends on the pedal or effect and how it processes stereo. Most of the time I am using the pedals as outboard effects on drums, keys and vocals.

    Does the distance from the pedals and the patchbay make a difference? I've done the same as you here, but was planning on moving some gear around which would place my racked effect drawers 20 ft away from my main patchbay and interfaces.

    • @RecordingMag
      @RecordingMag  4 роки тому

      It should be ok. Many folks might worry about signal loss as such a distance, but when you consider that many guitarists use 20' cables from guitar to pedal, I would not think it would be an issue.
