How do I get a monitor signal from a guitar amp?
I've been asked to do percussion for a guitar/vocal duo and I was already thinking about employing a mini mixer to monitor the percussion (not put it through the PA) but I will need to hear what the guitar is doing. How can I get a auxiliary signal from a guitar amp without affecting the FOH sound?
Depending on the features of the amp and/or the style of music you're playing, you could:
- Take a line out feed from the amp if it has one
- If it's an acoustic guitar, use a DI box between the guitar and amp to derive a low impedance signal
- If all else fails, put a mic in front of the amp
Good luck.
