Re: OT : bass preamp

I have been just running my rig into a mixer from there it goes to my 
computer and Audacity. The sound is ok. But then I really don't have 
anything to compare it with lately. Would a direct box improve the 
quality? 
Would it have to be an expensive one or would a 40.00 Behringer do it? I'm 
always looking for a little extra something. If not what would be the best 
way to interface with the computer. Of course I even run my Oud through 
the 
whole chain of fx and loopers. I have never run anything direct exactly I 
guess..

Seeking enlightenment,
Jeff
