Often times I find that even when copying the exact settings or downloading patches from guys like Leon, Rocco and others here, the tone isn't at all like what's heard on their clips. Yeah, yeah I know...it's in the fingers. But even hitting power chords the tone seems way off. Same thing happens when auditioning IR's from Ownhammer, ML & Celestion that everyone seems to love. They just don't sound right thru my setup. Either too boomy or too harsh. Trying to find out if there's some weak link in my chain...
Chapman ML-1 BEA --> AX8 --> Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 --> JBL LSR305's via direct monitoring.
I play in a relatively small carpeted room (12' x 12') with acoustic foam covering most of the walls.
Is there a huge difference in interfaces? I wouldn't think it would factor too much if I'm just passing the signal directly thru to my monitors. Are the JBL's a poor choice? I could always spring for a pair of 7" Adams or Yamahas but that's quite an expense and a large sized monitor for such a small room.
And input greatly appreciated.
