OK, so this may be a stupid question, but I couldn't answer it through research...
Context: I have a few work team members that are into Synth and music. They have been working very hard over the last year and I was thinking of building a few pedals and offer them as a thank you for their efforts.
However, I had a chat with them and now that I understand their setup, I'm puzzled as how does PPCB members are routing the signal when using a synth. In a nutshell here's what I understand of their setup:
They run a USB Keyboard to their computer.
They use a DAW software with Synth module such as FL Studio or Abelton
They simply output the computer analog audio signal to speakers. (no amps involved)
So my research pointed me toward a AD/DA converter, but they are awfully expensive and of course I wouldn't want to give them a gift that forces them to spend more money than the pedal is really worth...
My question, in their current setup, is there a simple affordable way to use external effects pedals ?
Thanks you for you patience and for using words I can understand in your response
