Ok, this is the story. I have a big show coming up in January. The issue is my setup. I am breaking down as we speak and buying a copy of Guitar Rig, which is about as useful as they come. (it will do just about any sound or combination thereof.)
What I want to know is the best way to hook this sh*t up. (I have never used it live)
I figure it should be Guitar>LAPTOP>Yamaha EMX 300(powered mixing board)> Marshall JCM 800 (mid 80's w/ 4 inputs)> (2) Peavey 4x12 cabinets. (I also have 2 more Peavey 2x15 cabs, if needed)
Would you use a power amp? (how big? what power rating?) Is there a better way to hook this up?
If I am going to use the house PA, how would I do it correctly?
There is to be a sound guy, but I don't trust in anyone. I'd like to know the better way, so i can do it right the first time.
I would really appreciate any honest input. I am a little confused and bow to those who have used a similar setup in the past.
Thank you greatly in advance.
