Hopefully that all made sense? The good news is that you can just download a free demo of GR4 (and hopefully of GR5 at the end of next week) and try it. This will probably sound like someone scraping a rusty nail on your fretboard If you used GR 5 straight into the regular guitar input it would sound horrible - for starters there will be an impedence mismatch and on top of that you'll have a complete GR5 model chain then being squirted into a L6 model chain. In doing so, you'll bypass all of the modelling on the Line 6 unit and just use it's power amp and speakers. If that is the case, then you should be able to use GR5 (or any other modeller) straight into that CD socket.
With a bit of luck, you'll get full range reproduction of the sound and it'll sound good, proving my theory of the speakers being full range to cope with the cabinet modelling that L6 put in the box. What I would advise is to plug a cd player in there and crank the amp.
I've just looked at the Spider manual on line and notice that you have a CD / MP3 input socket. You SHOULD be OK with a Line 6 amp as they also do cabinet modelling so I'd imagine the physical cabinet and speaker set gives a fairly flat response so as not to get in the way of their modelling. guitar cabinets in non-modelling amps are not full range, as the speaker and cab are an important part of the tone shaping character of an amp. I'm not clear if the Spider amp you have is full range or not. Click to expand.I've only got GR4, and I don't have a Spider so this is theory as opposed to me having done it, but here goes with my answer.Īs GR5 has cabinet modelling, you really want to be playing it through a full range speaker system or a PA.
