I read all the time that running a preamp into a preamp can damage your equipment. With that said I have a question that has been eating at me.
I have a Yamaha n12 which I use as my interface and I love everything about it, it has 8 mono pres on the first 8 channels and each has an XLR input as well as a TRS Line input and an insert.
I want to start adding tube preamp warmth(and color when its good) to just about everything.
Here is the question:
When connected to the line in are the pres still used, if not that answers everything, but if they are still in the chain then what is the safest way to do this, that is both safe for the n12 and will yield the best results?
I do not have any outboard pres yet, but I am in the market and the answers hear will determine what I buy.
Thanks in advance!
