guitar -> irig -> UAD apollo interface -> desktop + portable monitor -> PA speakers?

or can I bypass the UAD apollo and just do:

guitar -> irig -> desktop + portable monitor -> PA speakers?

I'm thinking that keeping my small PC desktop in the chain would reduce the risk of having cutouts or other mystery issues that others have had with laptops.

Thanks for your thoughts!


Yeah, it might help, I guess. PITA to drag around and setup though, so much. REALLY getting outside sensible usecase parameters compared to the "designed for live" boxes, of which there are a few, and aren't expensive.

And I presume you'd use either the iRig or the Apollo, yes.
