Hey y'all,
I'm currently recording using some low wattage tube amps through a Torpedo Captor X in my little home office/studio. What can be annoying about this is that I have 4 different heads I use and only 1 Captor. I'm trying to come up with a way to have all 4 heads plugged in and route 1 of the amps to the captor and the other 3 to dummy loads (as a precaution so that each amp is always seeing a load). I'm drawing a blank but would I be able to achieve this with a rotary switch? Worst case I would just wire inputs to outputs and label them but I would really prefer a solution where I would not need to plug/unplug anything but could just operate with a switch. Here's my crude diagram of what I'm picturing:
Otherwise, has anyone seen a better approach to a DIY amp/cab switcher?
