hey folks!
ok...so i've done a search, i've scoured the edirol site and i can't figure out if i'd be able to get input guitar and a microphone through the edirol PCR-A30 audio interface...can anyone tell me?
THANKS

Not an easy answer, apparently; only thing I see is that there is only one pair of "stereo" inputs, yet their spec says

Input Impedance
LINE: 27 k ohms
GUITAR: 680 k ohms
MIC: 27 k ohms

From that, I'd have to assume :roll: that you can switch the input to one of three settings; line or mic, both at 27k input impedance, one with a built in attenuator for the hotter line in levels, or guitar at 680 k ohm input impedance (so it doesn't load your guitar pickups) - in any position, you would have L+R channel inputs but BOTH would be the same, so I doubt it's possible to use ONE channel for guitar in and the other for mic input.

Only way I know that you could do that would be if you have a small stomp box that puts out line level, and another small mic preamp that also puts out line level. Not the most elegant way to go... Steve
