guitar->mic input=unwanted distortion. solution?
Posted by Wes Morrison on Wed, 09/19/01 - 12:59:32.
My laptop has a microphone input, but no line input. If I plug my guitar directly into it, I get distortion no matter how low I set the input level for the mic in Windows' mixer. Is this caused by an impedence mismatch? Any ideas on what I would need to put inline so I could record it "clean"? Preferably something cheap I could build with a few parts from Radio Shack.

try turning the volume on your guitar down. if this does not work, put a variable resistor PARALELL to the guitar signal. if u put it in series it will sound even shittier
