Hi,
I'd like to use Axe-Fx III to simultaneously record 2 signals into my DAW (Cubase).
The first signal is the signal processed by Axe-Fx (amps+cabs+effects).
For this I'm using the balanced Output 1 XLRs into the Line level input on my UAD interface:
Guitar > Instrument In > Output 1 > XLR-to-TRS-cable > Balanced Line in on UAD
This works great.
Now for the second signal - I'd like to simultaneously record the unprocessed or "dry" guitar DI signal (to use for re-amping later).
I can't use the Axe-Fx as my audio interface - because my projects are 96kHz (for various reasons I can't control) - which the unit doesn't support.
So I have to record it using audio outputs, and not digitally.
I understand that I can copy Input1 into Output3 and 4 for all-analog re-amping.
However - the question is - on the Audio interface (UAD) - which input type should I be using?
Balanced Line level inputs or High-Z Instrument Inputs?
Seems like Output3/4 can be set to "unity gain" and feed guitar amps - so does that mean it keeps the "original" guitar signal "as is" and then I should be connecting it to the High-Z input on my interface - as I would connect the guitar directly?
So - directly I would connect:
Guitar > HighZ Instrument Input on UAD
So that translated to (with Axe-Fx Output3):
Guitar > Instrument In > Copied to Output3 (Level knobs fully clockwise for unity gain) > TS-to-TS-cable > High-Z Instrument In on UAD
Or:
Output3/4 with "unity gain" copying Input1 should still go into the Balanced Line level inputs on UAD like so:
Guitar > Instrument In > Copied to Output3 (Level knobs fully clockwise for unity gain) > TRS-to-TRS-cable > Balanced Line in on UAD
Also is that a TRS-to-TRS cable? As Output3 is listed as unbalanced but still supports those Humbuster cables that use TRS on the Axe-Fx side. So which exact cable to use with Balanced Line inputs on UAD.
I couldn't find the answer to this anywhere - sorry if this is a noob question.
Thanks in advance!
