This may belong in the amps or recording section, so apologies if this is the wrong spot.

I'm moving to an apt with roommates soon, and need to figureout a way to get my amp sound into headphones with a clicktrack/metronome in the mix. Does anyone know a real simple way to do this. I won't be recording anything, I just need a way to monitor with zero latency. Is there a tiny mixer or something out there I could use?

Thanks,
Matt

Doesn't your amp have a aux-in or something? If not you could just grab either a small mixerboard or simple line-mixer box.

Well, i'm currently ampless, but that will change soon. If my amp does end up having an aux in, I just run the metronome signal into the aux-in and I will be able to hear the click in my headphones?

Thanks:)

Yes, the aux-in allows you to put in any kind of device with line-level signals. Metronomes, I-pods, your pc etc. That will be mixed with the sound of the amp's main input and then taken to either the speakers or the phones-out. Check out the V-amp2, should go used for $60 or so and is exactly what you'd need for such situations. Remember many phones-out of amps, espescially cheaper amps, tend to sound very buzzy and fuzzy.
