BUMP! i have had a good look on the web at the 1010lt sound card....where does the guitar input to?one of those trailing leads?




All of the Analog inputs on that card are at Line Level. To properly record your guitar you would also need either a Guitar Amp simulator device or a mixer with appropriate High Impedance input for guitar on it or perhaps a Direct Box designed for recording guitar to Line Level. Some guitar amps have a Line Output on the back of them that can allow you to use the amp as a preamp for the guitar, all you would need then is a cable that connects from the amp's Line Out one of the soundcard's Line Inputs.

i have noticed that with the BX5A speakers there is no enclosed cable connections....what are they,what is it i need,standard 1/4" guitar jack connection cables?




Most self-powered nearfield monitors for recording work will have a BALANCED input on them, typically looks like a 1/4" jack, but requires a TRS cable that has three connections on the 1/4" instead of two as in the standard guitar patch cable.
