Hello, as the title implies, I’m frustrated I can’t find a clear answer to the above after reading the manual and googling. I sense the answer is no? :(
Thank you to anyone who can clarify before I consider purchasing.

OX is an external device from your recording system. So the only way to use it after the fact is by reamping.

There are direct boxes that can tap directly from an amp’s speaker output. They go between the speaker output and speaker (or OX in your case). My Countryman Direct Box and Tonex Capture can both tap directly off amp’s speaker and convert to XLR output suitable for a mixer or audio interface.

Thank you, I’m running a cool setup with head switcher>Suhr Reactive Load>Orange Pedal Baby solid state amp>cab(s) next room>mics>Apolo>DAW.
However, was curious to what extent this could be simplified for some situations recording elsewhere, while retaining ability to manipulate ex post facto.
I can currently tap s line from the Reactive Load into DAW, but generally do not. Just can’t get IR’s to feel like cabs through UA API and SSL unison pres. Was curious to see if OX software was usable in DAW. Maybe in the future?

Thank you Joe—I didn’t tag you in response above.
