hey there,
I'm going to order a lot of stuff next week, including a new interface, but also the reamper-starters-kit so to speak
well, aside from the obvious sm57 i was thinking of the radial ProRMP as the reamper (being in europe, i'm not quite sure where to get stuff like the little labs redeye there's no european dealer afaik), but i'm still wondering about the DI.
basically, what i already have is the studio projects VTB1 which has a Hi-Z input, and of course there are also the Hi-Z ins of my new interface (most likely fireface400, otherwise profire610), but i was thinking about ordering a dedicated DI box and do some shootouts with those units.
so, any suggestions on which DI to get?
i'd like to rule out the countryman DI which - while apparently being REALLY good - is just out of my pricerange, considering the amount of $$ the fireface alone will put me back ^^
other than that, i'm open for all suggestions, as long as thomann carries it
the idea is to get a DI box, do a shootout with all the other devices, and return the DI if it's not performing well.
i'm mainly using passive PUs btw.
as for the pre/interface instrument ins, afaik the ff400 has an impedance of 470kOhm, whereas the vtb-1 Hi-Z in has actually an impedance of 1 MegaOhm.
i'm currently using the vtb-1 input for my DI tracks, and so far it seems to perform just fine, but then again i don't have any other device to compare it to.
