ok, so i decided i needed to record some direct tones with drums. unfortunately i am no drum programmer so in garageband i just loaded a stock clip and played some chunky riffs to get an idea how the guitar tones would sound with drums.
I didn't bother trying to dial out some of the low end dirt...maybe in the future. i just want to get the tones to sound similar to the amps i am emulating, though if they aren't exact i don't care that much. i'm finding the hardest thing is making the amps sound not quite so "perfect." it seems like i get the sound that i love, and when compared to real miced up amps, the real amps sound lame honestly...even well recorded ones. but that lame factor is what makes them sound more real oddly enough. whatever, i don't even know what i'm trying to say now...haha
signal chain
PRS -> Axe-fx -> amp -> german cab and v30 -> line in on macbook pro -> garageband
Diezel VH4 (i think) - going for the liquid gain thing

Bogner Uberstuff - my favorite so far

Soldano SLO100 - crappy playing on this one...trying to get a framus cobra tone...haha

Mesa Dual Rec - got this one pretty tight i think

ENGL Powerball - even tighter than the mesa

Marshall JCM800 - for grins...honestly it sounds like crap...gotta kill the bass mess going on here
