New Head-Fier
Hi All,
Looking for some help here.. Googling has been driving me nuts.
I want to pick up playing guitar again, but I'd like to play quietly with headphones. This is something I've never done, though, so it's all new to me.. Is it possible to run the guitar into an audio interface, hook up the interface into my PC via USB, then listen to the playing by installing a DAW software through the usb input to my balanced DAC? The final chain would look like this:
Guitar -> audio interface -> PC (DAW) -> DAC -> AMP -> headphones
It feels like this may cause some latency, but wanted to see if others had experience with this as I'd like to use the gear I already have if possible. I know that I could plug my headphones directly into the audio interface, but I also had concerns around damaging my headphones..
Any help would be greatly appreciated. As you can tell.. I'm in a severe lack of knowledge/experience here
