Powered Line-input Signal Splitter? Options

[Wilko]

Hey, hey. I was wondering if there existed some kind of box, that split an incoming signal from a 1/4 jack into multiple 1/4 ouputs. So basically, a box that routes an input from a guitar to multiple outputs, but powered, so the signal is identical as possible through each output.

I'm trying to find something like this because I want to run my guitar through my pod XT into my Firepod, and also have the same signal going through to a seperate amp, which will be mic'd, also going into the firepod... so basically I want to record a real amp with my mic one track, as well as having an emulated mic'ing on another track going through the Pod XT. Hope I didn't over complicate that.


Guitar Out ------> Splitter input --->

Splitter Out 1- Pod XT ----> FirePod

Splitter Out 2 - Amp (which is mic'd) ---> FirePod

In essence, the same idea as a headphone signal splitter (shown below), only for a guitar signal.

I believe it would be possible to plug 1 input into the firebox, and have it go through multiple outputs to create a loop... I'll have to look into that.

I've tried splitting through the PodXT, and it worked fairly well. You can put it on a clean signal, and route 1 input directly into the firepod, and then have the other signal travel to a mic'd amp. That's 1 solution, except now I can't really use any cool amp models on the pod without them effecting both channels... Decisions, decisions.
