gigawatt said:I can try the reverse DI idea, but wouldn't reducing Output 2's volume control have the same effect?
I tried the 4CM with a Sansamp PSA-1 preamp and got the least noise by turning Output 2 as high as possible and reducing the PSA-1 gain. There seemed to be one noise component that was constant (with Out 2 knob all the way down, there was still noise hitting the Sansamp) and an additional amount changing with knob position. So whether it's reverse DI or just turning down a preamp gain knob, you might want to keep Out 2 pretty high. Check if the noise is there with Out 2 at minimum first though. If that can be avoided, turning it near max might not give the best results.
