Line Level > Instrument Level > Line Level ....Solution?

[peAk]

Hi all,

Trying to finish up some stuff in my home studio and one thing that has got me pretty frustrated is patching in pedals to a patchbay.

What's the easiest and cheapest way to go from a line level, to an instrument level, back to a line level?

I am using an effect loop straight from my DAW and I can't seem to get this working right. I want to be able to experiment with pedal effects on already recorded tracks and not necessarily guitar tracks.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I built a DI using the project and it works great.

AMZ is a great website!

You get the level shift, plus galvanic isolation to eliminate noise. Great little problem solvers.
