Hello there again,
I'm planning to proceed to a cheap reamping for a forthcoming recording project.
I have a firepod. The outputs of the firepod are line level, unbalanced.
The question is, can I use a active IDbox to convert the unbalanced signal to a balanced one ? So I can easily connect to the reversed passive DI for reamping. Also it would be ok to have a big distance between the firepod and the amp then.
Will the active Di change the level of the signal so i cannot reamp it anymore ?
If yes, do you have another solution ? (a 1/4''jack-XLR cable would suck ?)
