chargrilled Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I've got the Tech 21 VT Bass for recording directly into a USB audio interface but was wondering if the sound would be improved if I put a DI box after it? Does anyone use it in this fashion Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phagor Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 (edited) The VT's output is buffered, so it should work well into your audio inferface's line in or instrument in. The output isn't balanced, so it won't work well into a mic input, and a long lead may pick up noise. A DI box would get around these problems. But I don't think a DI box will make much difference to sound quality, over using a short lead into the line in. Enjoy the VT, I love mine!

chargrilled Posted October 12, 2009 Author Share Posted October 12, 2009 Thanks for that - yeah it totally kicks arse, blows my old Sansamp BDDI away for recording purposes with ease! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
