Guitar/Mic In Port

Step 8 Reassemble.

Put the sound card back in, and replace the cover. You should be able to hear your guitar through the speakers. If not, try adjusting the sound properties, mostly the aux or line in.

If your sound card already has a 1/8" input, wouldn't it just be easier to run an 1/8th male to 1/4" female and mount the female end on the front bezel? No soldering required. Though it might be useful to have a gain knob in-line and mounted on the port, to keep people from accidentally plugging "hot" inputs into this and frying the sound card. Cool idea, though, definitely!

I did do that, but was a bit of a clutter, I'm trying to cut down on all the wires.

i went to radioshack got a 1/4 to 1/8 and phenominal quality only$1.50 no opening case also works to plug in mp3 player to amp if you dont have 1/8 port on your amp for mp3 in

Long time since I've opened an amp up, how is it easy to put a gain knob in, where could I find out how?

are you positive you use the reference design? It seems like the output on the little gem would be too much for the soundcard, as it can drive a small speaker itself, I've heard of several people frying their soundcards in similar ways
