using stomp boxes with line level gear?

Unknown soldier · 21st December 2009

i want to insert stomp boxes into my mixes. So I need something takes line level down to instrument level, then instrument level back into line level? Just use two DI boxes or is there something built specifically for this purpose?

Any help appreciated...

thanks

a few people make reamping units desgined to take balanced line level into amp inputs and back again, i believe radial make one.

2 DI's are just as good though, just make sure that your bal>unbal one is passive and used in reverse with some xlf-f to jack/xlr-f cables to feed it with.
