I had to play around with the knobs a lot untill I had a setting that gave me a first impression of how the guitar sounds through an amplifier. Here`s a link to a recording of me playing around a bit (no I didn`t use a metronome there). The guitar volume was set at 1.8 , the preamp gain half cranked up and the output about a tenth. The line-out of the preamp was connected with the line-in of the soundboard. I chose a bandwidth of 16bit and 44,1kHz Samplerate for a good sound quality.Hope you like the sound as much as I do.If I only knew which real guitar amp could get me a clean sound like this :?: .

Line7, Yamaha, Boss, Digitech, Vox and other all make similar devices, all of varying price and quality.]]> Live Sound Ignar Hillström https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/mic-preamp-as-guitar-amp/#post-72012 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/mic-preamp-as-guitar-amp/#post-71955 Thu, 07 Oct 2004 19:05:16 +0000
Always be very careful connecting live intruments to HiFi equipment, as the HiFi isn't designed to take the abuse at sustained volumes.

Have fun!

Unfortunately I don`t have a guitar amp yet (I`m planning to get myself a decent one soon).The only amp I got is this little microphone preamp which I normally use as a headphone-preamp on my Hifi:

What I`d like to know from you is: Can I use this little preamp with my guitar or would it get damaged?
