Most likely 99% the same.
Cliff asked me to try mic+di out which I obviously did and I liked it. However the difference between mic+di and my method is IMO inaudible even on high gain and soloed tracks.
Here's the clip once again. One of these is mic+di and one of these is the method I use for my Cab Packs that also removes the power amp distortion with my own methods:
IMO the difference is inaudible and I do think I have pretty good ears but that's obviously subjective. I'd love to hear if you guys hear a clear difference in these clips and if so which one you prefer.
