Reamp Users in Action

"The Reamp is the recording guitar player's best friend. It works great with bass and keyboards too.

There is no other device out there that can take a recorded DI performance and have the amp receive it exactly as it would if you were plugging your guitar, or, bass straight in the input."

Kieran Lynch / The Engine Room / Dublin, Ireland

Hi John,

My last mix session was for a yet untitled band comprising both Irish and American musicians in a Dublin studio called The Engine Room.

I use the Reamp mainly to send, what I call "Internally Generated Sounds" such as synths, samples, loops etc, back out into the real world to help make them sound more organic. It really gives things a character and unifying sound that's much easier to control and place within a mix.

Another application of recent times was to re-broadcast guitars that had been recorded only as DI. With the Reamp we had all the time in the world to set up the amps the way we wanted and then just hit record. Just to be able to plug in old FX and Stomp boxes to an Aux send makes life so much easier, and the attenuation pot allows you to drive the inputs for different levels of distortion... it's a great box!

I've used the Reamp on Elvis Costello's Album "When I Was Cruel" and while working with producer Flood on U2's "How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb"

Hi there John,

I recently bought one of your boxes and am thoroughly enjoying its use. I'm tracking an album in Glasgow Scotland for a band called Make Model (signed to EMI) We are really digging your box and thought you might like a snap of our use for it.

Yours,
Geoff Allan

Hi John,

Your Reamp V.2 has saved the day here more than once at Defy Recordings. As much as everyone can record at home, a cranked Marshall is still a lease-breaker! The Reamp allows me to put that all essential 'air' around a sound that can't be had by a plug-in. Thanks for making the perfect box!

Best,
Robert L Smith

Andi Herr / Heyday Studios

Hello John,

I use the Type 85 + Chandler Germanium and the amps next to the DA-converter. It sounds great!!!! There is no noticeable difference for me compared to the direct amp sound.

Thank you very much and greetings from Germany

The Reamp gives me the flexibility I need to tailor the energy of each song I mix. If I tracked a DI for bass AND guitar, I wind up being able to make sonic decisions just like any other mix issue, with the actual tone of the bass and guitar, song by song. Amazing. The Reamp is an elegant tool for sonic shaping. I use the Reamp to integrate our vast pedal collection into the mix environment, and for all kinds of creative re-recording needs. There is a reason people say " Reamp " when they talk about chambering or re-recording something these days!

Just wanted to thank you for making such an awesome product. I have had my 10th anniversary model since it was new in 2004, and it was used on my band's debut album, "Dark Fiber." We're currently in the studio working on our second album and my trusty Reamp is hard at work once again!

Rock on!
