bypassing the pre's in my 2626?

[professorlamp]

I'd like to try my hand at this preamp design I found which is a fairly simple circuit and I'd also like to be able to somehow plug it in to the profire but bypass the pre's on the profire and only hear the pre's I built, Would I just go into the line inserts of the 2626?
Or are those still running through the preamps?

the pres are bypassed if you use a 1/4 inch jack

the pres are bypassed if you use a 1/4 inch jack

Are you sure? Are they not just "padded"?

NOTE: The 1/4” line input section of the combo
the preamp
connector (on the rear of the interface) is never sent to

the preamp, however, the interface does sum the 1/4”
line-level portion of the combo jack and front-panel
instrument-level input. While the summing of these two
1/4” inputs does not affect either input’s impedance or
signal level, it does make it possible to record audio
from both inputs simultaneously. If you have connected
a line-level device to the rear of the interface but only
intend to record from the corresponding instrument
input on the front, please make sure that the connected
device is not outputting any audio (or is powered off).

The pre's are bypassed using 1/4 jack

Bypassed. Notice the gain knobs do nothing if you go through the line-in

That's awesome. I know a lot of these "prosumer" interfaces just pad the pre to line-level.

yea son, that's the difference between the mic/line and the mic/inst. the two instrument in's have the 1/4" acting as DI's, the other six are straight in.
