Tim37 Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 can you run the output of the guitar in to the mic imput on your pc? don't know if it will work but it would be hard to try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keegan Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 You can run it through a preamp into the Line-In on your PC, record your amp with a microphone, or use a USB interface. Without a microphone though, you'll need some sort of amp modelling software, not just for the sake of the sound but for amplification. The cheapest way is probably the entry-level Line 6 interface, as it comes with some software. Next up would be a tube preamp(ART sells a nice one for pretty cheap) or entry-level USB interface(like the M-Audio JamLab) with software like Flying Haggis(I believe is the cheapest decent amp modeler, not sure) and some program to record. A microphone will give you the best potential sound, and is probably the best option if you already have a rig with your sounds set up and want it to sound how it does from your amp. You'll need one that can survive the sound level without distorting though. If you just need something quick and dirty you can play into a cheap computer microphone with your guitar unplugged, or into a digital tape recorder, if you're just trying to get ideas down.
