hi i'm fairly new here but i got a question...i'm trying to get an amp that will work good for both my guitar and synthesizer, i have a nord lead 2x and a semi-hollow body guitar. I think my synthesizer mest up my current amp which is a 30 watt Crate amp...i've heard that playing sum low notes on a keyboard/synth can mess up sum amps because of the low frequencies...is that true?

I know that there are several keyboardists who have been known to run their keyboards thru guitar amps to create a distinctive sound. Jon Lord (Deep Purple) did it regularly and I have heard that Depeche Mode have been known to do it during recording.....what I don't know is if they used something akin to a "reamp" style box to convert the signal or not. You definitely need to do it if you run a signal from your computer interface's output (or analog tape deck) to a guitar amplifier....you can screw up your equipment very badly if you don't. That is about all I know on the subject.
