Layering Different Amps

[jauernis]

I'm sure this has been answere jsut having trouble finding it.

If I want to layer a 5150 and windsor can I use two different amps on one DI and blend?

SO let's say I have only dual tracked and am reamping....on both sides I want the 5150 and the windsor but do not want to quad track. Can I blend those two amps and the mics will stay in the same position.

Is that normal to layer amps on one performance?

Sorry such a noob question just never had two amps at once in my posession

You can always try, but remember to phase the clips correctly. I use this one myself, it has a one 500hz cycle and silence. How to use it is to put that at the beginning of the guitar track, then record the reamped signal to a track. Then zoom in as close as possible and align the 500hz loop and you should be in phase

That's what I use too, a lower frequency but the principle is the same.

Go for it.... I've heard some great blended amp tones. Just treat it like you were treating multiple mic recordings.
