Amps For Reamping/Synth Suggestions?

Hi Everyone,

 

I know this is not a direct Logic question, but here goes- In Logic, sometimes I like to reamp soft synths and/or print hardware synth tracks through guitar amps for a different approach. Yeah, it's more work and time, but results can be fun sometimes. Currently I'm using a JC 40 (which is wonderful) but am looking for another amp type that might impart some different,yet still high quality, characteristics. If anyone is doing the same, can you reply with what amp you're using and why you like the results?

 

Thanks- Damion

Hi David- I just put a mic on the speaker/amp. I use a Pigtronix Keymaster for reamping (helps with line leveling) but honestly, they're not always necessary.

 

Sometimes when recording guitars I do a splitter with one channel going into an amp and then the other through a DI (Radio J48) back into my interface. That can have interesting results when you blend them or pan them separately.

 

Btw, this reamping technique can be effective with both soft & hardware synths. If sometimes I can't get a synth to sound a certain way, or get a certain extra kick, this might work. But also it doesn't have to be an amp- it could be an external effects unit of some sort (eq, doubler, etc.).
