Good questions. Here are the answers.

The EL&R 500 is an Effects Loop and Reamper for 500 series racks. It allows you to Reamp a track by providing transformer coupled outputs that you can plug into your amp for mic'ed reamping. It also works as an Effects Loop, putting your pedalboard directly into the recording chain. The EL&R adds transformer warmth, provides two DC power outputs for your pedals, and gives you variable impedance matching.

Yes. The EL&R is a 500 series module — you'll need a compatible rack like the API Lunchbox, Radial Workhorse, or Neve 8804. Most racks will work.

Assign a track to the 500 series input (which becomes the EL&R output) and connect a 1/4" cable to your guitar amp or effects. If reamping an amplifer, connect a microphone to your interface and record while playing back the source track. 

For reamping an effects loop, assign the track to the 500 series input. Connect the EL&R output to your effects input and then the output of the effects to the input on the front panel of the EL&R. Record as you would any 500 series module.

Signal flow for reamping and effects loop with EL&R

Yes. Use the inputs and outputs of your interface connected to the 500 series rack to route dry tracks out to the EL&R and back from the EL&R to your DAW.   Pro Tools, Reason, Studio One, Logic, Ableton, Reason, Reaper — whatever you use.

Gear made by people who actually use it.

Renovo Amp Works started with a desire to make tools and amps that bring the fun and innovation back into playing and recording.

We built the EL&R because we needed it. We needed an easy way to use our guitar effect pedals in reamping and recording chains. We needed a clean and flexible way to reamp our Renovo Amps. We build what we need and find that others need it too!
Every unit is designed and assembled in the USA (Minneapolis to be exact). We test every one before it ships.
