Thank you, this was explained well and easily understandable. I do have a question about outputs with L and R - if I only want to connect my guitar amplifier to an interface's output in order to use it as a speaker, do I need to connect it to the L or the R output? Also, what kind of cable/jack would I need to connect amplifier to an audio interface?
If you are trying to connect the line out of your interface to the guitar input of your amp, then that's not probably a very good idea :P (check our signal levels video for more info on that) If your amp has an aux input (that bypasses the guitar pre-amp) then you could pick any channel (you're just going to lose half of the stereo information). Another idea would be if you could use your DAW to mix both the L and R channels into a single channel and then send that to a mono input. Depending on the music you want to play this might sound better than just sending the L or R channel. I hope this helps :D Let me know if you have more questions!
@@arbitersofsound Yeah my amp has an aux input. What about if I use a Y cable with dual 1/4" jacks on one end to plug into the L and R outputs on the interface, and plug in the 3.5mm end into my amp's aux input? Or is it better to use the headphones output of the interface into my amp's aux?
@@carpediemearth Both should work (as long as you keep the headphone out volume low). If your amp only has one speaker then probably the stereo to mono conversion will happen inside.
Any Audio Interface with RCA ground & balanced 1/4" inputs so I could directly plug a vinyl turntable such as a Technics SL1210 MKII in the AI ? The Arturia AudioFuse has this lovely feature but I look for something more affordable to just connect a turntable and a few old analog synthesizers (not necessarily simultaneously).
Hmmm... You're right! There doesn't seem to be much in the market that has phono inputs (RCA) for turntables and line inputs for synths. The AudioFuse seems to be the only choice. I'm afraid that you'd probably have to look into getting a separate phono pre-amp and then a simple AI with 4 analog ins to achieve what you want. I also had a look at basic mixers but there's nothing out there with built-in phono pres. It's a shame really, because that would be super useful for sampling and beat making.
This is actually a quality video, this channel doesn't get enough recognition!
Those question voiceovers are hillarious!
🔥🔥🔥please don’t stop making videos.
Great work
Very informative and fun, thanks
