no real idea what it means, I am sure it has something to do with being powered.

which is better?


I am trying to figure out how to plug my guitar in my computer and use an amp emulator program such as Amplitude...which is the program I have. I have been told that plugging in directly through my E-MU 1212 will give me a really shitty sound when trying to record.

I was told to get a DI box and that would eliminate the problem. If I buy the EMU audiocok, is that a DI box, or will I still need a DI box after purchasing that. DO I really need the audiodock? is there a cheaper way to get all of the features that offers? I am not looking to spend more than $100 if possible and the audiodock is $300.
