I'm in search of a do-it-all box that functions as a DI, splitter, and a reamp box. The splitter (for those that don't know) splits a guitar signal in two to go to two amps. Or you can go to one amp and the other go to DI...which is where the reamp box comes in. Either way, it does so in a manner that causes minimal signal degredation.

Anyway...does anyone know a cost effective solution for this? I will sacrifice the DI because I have a few of those already. But it would be a nice feature.
 
That's nice and all...and I'm familar with the company.

However, it only does one thing. It doesn't even do splitting. Is there something out there that functions as at least a splitter and reamp box? How about just a splitter at a reasonable cost?
 
Have a look at the stuff made by Little Labs. They are kind of th e original for this type of box;)
 
It's looking like the Little Labs Redeye is going to be my best bet.

I have some questions out to Little Labs right now...so we'll see.

It's more than I wanted to spend, but I also don't want to sacrifice quality.
 
Sweet. It'll work for all that I need it for!

See my crappy picture I sent to Jonathan at Little Labs for illustration.

Recently picked up a Radial Reamping Pack, comes with the J-48 for Di recording and the X-Amp for reamping. Best purchase I've made in a long time, great piece of gear, check it out.

Is there a quality advantage that Radial has over Little Labs?
 
Radial is a great company, but I do not think they really have a quality advantage on Little Labs. Little Labs makes excellent equipment for a fair price, as does Radial:)

That thing is really cool but holy hell!!!! It's expensive!!!! There's a snowball's chance in hell that I can actually afford that.

What you are trying to do requires special purpose-built(and very expensive) transformers. You are also trying to do three completely different things with one box, it's going to be expensive.

There is no cheap way to do what you are trying to do.

Well, according to Little Labs, the Redeye will do all I need for 1/4 the price of that Radial rack unit.

You will need 7 red eyes to do what the radial piece will do.

True. But for me, it's not practical as I will only need one at a time. :)
 
Morley or Dunlap AB box for the guitar splitter, A Countryman DI and I re-amp without using re-amp box Les Paul was the founding father of re-amping it's old school, Main thing about re-amping boxes was because of line level device Some guy back in the 70's can't remember his name designed them so he was able to re-amp for line level devices but re-amping been around since the 50's. I don't have a ton of money myself. But I learned to be resourceful to.

I've heard bad things about that Morley unit. It'd rather stick with the tried and true.
 
Whatever I've had my Morley for years trouble free. Just a Y splitter ain't like it's dam preamp. Sure you can buy custom made splitter with midi but do you really need that. I record with two amps all the time with my Morley AB with a DI on a side chain so I can re-amp it if I aint happy with original take. Guess you probably think Dunlap trash to.
 
Call me crazy, but will the redeye actually let you split to two amps? It's great for re-amping, sure, but you said you wanted a DI and a split too, right?
