i was wondering what is the best way of getting my guitar into my eMac usig the Audio Input on the computer. Would putting my guitar into my 30 watt amp and then into my computer overload it? If so, would I be able to put my guitar straight into it using Guitar Rig as an amp?

You can use a 1/4" to 1/8th" adapter cable like the Griffin GarageBand Guitar Cable. Don't plug your amp directly into the audio in as you'll overdrive the iinput, unless you have a line out (line level signal out) on your amp (the Tech21NYC® amps have a direct out and I think some of the Line6® amps do too).

Guitar Rig will recognize your line input from the griffin cable. Make sure your it is configured correctly in the Guitar Rig prefs and you should be set. If you have iLife '05 (sometimes it is preinstalled on newer Apple machines), then you can use GarageBand together with Guitar Rig to expand your amp selection for a GarageBand track.

Good luck.

peace,
deacon
