eh, that doesn't appear to be a "preamp" in the truest sense of the word...but you can give it a try...I wouldn't expect real great results tho.

Yo if you wanna get a good sound outta the 0404 get a good mixer or buy a direct injection box and put it straight into your card at the moment i DI my guitars into the mixer then into the computer

I agree with Stephen, a mixer is prolly the best route for the moment and possible future options.

service.bfast.com/bfast/c...mp;bfmtype=gear has Behringers newest IMP preamps, which aren't bad. Obviously not the best in the world considering the price, but not bad.

if you are planning to do some direct recording, you'd better have a DI box to match impedance of the signal. some guys here have a lot of experience with those, from a simple passive DI box to the modern PODs and V-Amps.

in your case a DI specifically designed to guitars, Behringer's GI-100:

or the generic:

it´s a mixer with two preamps, best value around:
