Radial Engineering ProRMP Studio Re-Amper Passive Re-Amping Direct Box

I bought this to be able to reamp from my PreSonus Studio 68c interface and also to be able to profile my physical heads with ToneX. Plenty of volume available, ground lift works as expected, and my reamps sound identical to recording directly into my gear. This also has made incredible captures with IK Multimedia's ToneX software without needing to buy any proprietary hardware. Built like a tank too. If you need a high quality reamp box this checks all the boxes.

Utilized this for our live DI rig to reamp my setup in case I was not able to make a show. We have tried it in practice but fortunately not during a show.

I’ve use plenty of Reamp devices in my day, and this is the best sounding, and easiest to use in my opinion. It’s a radial product, so you know you’re going to be getting the best quality possible. Stop using a reverse di box, and pick this up. Thank me later.

Solid piece of gear. Because many lower/mid-range audio interfaces seem to output relatively low line-level signals, the level control on the Radial ProRMP may not be enough to bring the level up enough for realistic re-amping. It's not clear to me whether Radial's active re-amp box (X-Amp) can increase the level more than the ProRMP -- but, in any case, you may need more level than the ProRMP can provide. In this case, you can use a (fairly powerful) clean-boost pedal after the ProRMP to bring the signal up to a more realistic level ... or buy a (considerably?) more expensive audio interface that can output a stronger line-level signal.

This is a great box. I've been Reamping guitars for years and have used different boxes in the past. Recently I've been using a black original Reamp from John Cuniberti but needed a second box. Someone on the Andy Sneap forum did a Reamp shootout a few years ago that compared this box with the Radial X-amp, a red original Reamp and a Little Labs box. We were hard pressed to hear a difference between the boxes. The differences were so slight that for me the only consideration left was construction, price and ease of use. If there was an audible sound difference, this box sounded better than the 2 active boxes tested and it avoids the hassle of using a power supply. Granted other boxes also do other things, like the X Amp for example has two isolated outs which is nice, but if you just need basic operation this box does it and is extremely solid.

This, paired with a DI box, is a home recording studio (or any studio) must-have. I always despised software plugins, and much prefer the sound of micing a real amp. Having a re-amping setup allows me to focus on playing a good performance without worrying about having everything perfect with the amp setup and mics. Conversely, when focusing on getting good amp recordings I can have the exact performance playing through the amp. For a home studio, this allows flexibility on when you can crank it up and when you can be silently recording in headphones. On top of everything else, it's a great creative tool. You can send anything (ANYTHING) out to it and have it convert the signal to instrument level for amping. It's a great way to get many unique tones.

No complaints...decent price and it works...sounds good

...and there was no doubt it would because Radial is an excellent brand
