    I want to connect my bass to my UMC22 interface, but there isnt any input when i play the bass.

    I tried connecting my bass to the 1/4 instrument jack, but there wasn't any sound, do i need to connect my amplifier and then connect it to my audio interface, or am i doing something wrong here?

    Adding XLR / 1/4 Out for direct input to a board.

    I have a Orange Ad200 that has no XLR or line out in general and was wondering if there is simple mods to make it so the pre-amp of the Orange is not lost? Any mod at all? I love the amp and want to get that creamy high end. I am splitting the signal with an Avalon U5 for cleans.

    My band's new record just came out... I like it.

    So we finally released this record. We spent a lot of time arranging and rearranging every song until it sounded the way we wanted. In the end I think it sounds like something in between 70s/80s disco and 60s/70s rock. Don't know why, some songs remind me of the sound of things like The Band...

    Good, inexpensive way to record multitrack from the board?
