676
Application Guide
Direct Instrument Recording Application
Use this configuration to record the direct signal from an electric guitar or bass using the 676’s Hi-Z INSTRUMENT INPUT.
In this configuration the direct signal will still pass through the tube gain stage, making it great for recording harmonically-rich
bass and guitar tracks!
Application Notes:
The INSTRUMENT INPUT must be enabled on the front panel using the button located next to the jack.
Either the PREAMP output, COMPRESSOR / LIMITER output, or both outputs can be used in this application. Use the
COMPRESSOR / LIMITER output if you wish to process the signal with the 676’s built-in compressor and/or limiter.
When using the compressor/limiter, use both jacks to have a backup of the uncompressed signal, for parallel compression
applications, or for recording the uncompressed version and sending the compressed version to the musician’s headphone
mix.
A signal processor can be inserted in the PREAMP INSERT. Here you can connect a favorite compressor, EQ, or any other
signal processor you wish to insert after the preamp.
