How to setup? -Split Guitar Signal to go to multiple amps


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Split the Guitar Signal to go to multiple amps at the same time.  .How to have one Guitar track input and send it to multiple bus?
I think this is where multiple SENDS would be used with Track Volume turned OFF and POST effect ON, but not sure.
I tried setting the amps all on one BUS but it was a terrible sounding mess. If they are on separate channels, it sounds correctly.
Each BUS has a different GuitarRig Amp+ Effect.

I would simply record the guitar on multiple tracks at the same time. Greater flexibility with EQ and effects, etc.
Add different amp sims/presets to each as desired.
If it's already recorded, clone/duplicate that track.

I tend to use aux in this situation, but I don't think it matters. In terms of mixing then the various amps are on tracks.

Back in the day of 4 and 8 track recording a trick I learned was to take one guitar track and then send it on the mixers auxiliary sends to a couple of amps in the live room. Then we would place a few mikes at different locations and distances. This gave that original one guitar track 6 or 8 channels on the mixer. So from there you used panning and EQ to create this wall of sound. All from one track. It was very organic but possibly the same idea could be duplicated ITB
