Hi Max,
I know, it's a fancy way of what I have done to connect the iRig Pre to an =
external recorder, but it's the only way I was able to ensure that everythi=
ng is working.
Listening is done by connecting the headphones to the recorder (using FelMi=
camp cable for now!), while the headphone jack of the IRig Pre must be plug=
ged with a 4 pins Jack, preferably with the headset for Iphone (do not ask =
me why, but in my case it is so!), because there is no signal for headphone=
s from Irig Pre!
I just bought on Ebay the cable you sent the link: I hope it works, even if=
I have some doubts because the OUT on iRig Pre (as previously said)seems t=
o be plugged with a 4 pins jack instead of 3 pins, but soon we'll know!
I hope I explained the best...
Thanks for the Ebay link!
