I have a Peavey Guitar amp and I want to hook it into my computer, I know there's a chord that converts it and allows me too, but where can I get it how much will it cost and what's it called?
Answer
There are several ways of recording your guitar directly onto the hard drive of your computer. If you play an electric guitar, then the simplest way is to connect the headphone/line out from your amp to the line in of your soundcard. All you need to do this is Computer Guitar Cable which has a standard jack on one end, and a mini-jack on the other. You can try out how this sounds by using the built-in Windows sound recorder software although better still download Audacity which is free recording software.
You can also experiment by plugging your electric guitar directly into the mic-in socket on your sound card. This will work but it may not give the high quality performance needed for a more professional sound. In general, electric guitars need a high impedance input, but although most computer soundcard's mic inputs have a high impedance, it is not as high as a normal guitar input. This lower impedance can result in quality problems.
To help you find your way around generally if the sockets on your sound card are colour coded then the microphone will be pink, the standard single channel line-out or headphone will be green, and line-in will be blue.
If you have a standard generic sound card, then you may find that the recording quality is not too good. Ordinary sound cards are better at sound output than recording and will often produce noisy low-quality recordsings. You may also find that many laptops and macs do not have any line-in socket at all. If this is the case then a small cost but high quality option is to spend a bit more and purchase a Behringer Guitar Link UCG102 Guitar-to-USB Interface , which connects your guitar to your USB port and offers superior quality recording as it bypasses your generic soundcard's audio input. Which brings us on neatly to a whole range of USB solutions for recording your guitar on your computer
