splitting signal for monitoring + recording
I'm looking into getting a new mic preamp, and I'd like to know how to go about routing a single output to two devices.
I like to have my mic pres signal sent to a mixer (for monitoring only) as well as to the Digi001 (for recording). I use a Mackie mixer for monitoring to avoid hearing latency, and it works very well.
Some of my mic pres have two outputs, which makes this very easy. Other mic pres, like the Vintech 1272, only have one XLR output for each channel. What is the best was to route the mic pre output to two inputs (one for monitoring at my mixer, and the other going into the Digi001)? Is there a splitter box/device that I will need to do this without degrading the audio signal? I don't want to make my choice of preamp limited to pres that have two outputs, but for my work flow, it really helps.
Any advice on this is appreciated,
