You don't need a cab connected when u use the emulated output.
Here's what Mr. Blackstar said:
Plugging a jack plug (mono or stereo) into the emulated output socket of
the HT-5 mutes the HT-5 power amplifier, and in this state it is safe to use
the HT-5 without a loudspeaker plugged into the speaker output jacks of the
unit.

@mothowl It's because it's running through an emulated output, not interacting with a speaker, and that feedback loop is absolutely required to let the tubes sing. I have yet to hear a direct recording of a tube amp without a speaker that does this. But plug these blackstars into a nice speaker cabinet and you will get that rich tube tone you speak of. I have a jcm900 & a rectifier as well & the HT-5 can run with those beautifully through a V30 cab.

I have never recorded any of my music into my Windows 7 (64 Bit) P.C. -- Can you tell me what sound card and mixer I would need to get my electric guitar and microphone into my PC simultaneously? Thxs ! Jerry

You need a soundcard with two inputs, that's all. There are many to choose from. Check that it has at least two inputs and possible a "mic input" and that it supports Win 7. All that info can be found from the website of the respective soundcard.
