So my question is in your experience do different Audio Interfaces make noticeably different sounds? Here's where I'm coming from, I was using an Avid MBox 3 for a few weeks, then picked up a Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6. I don't think there are any different settings in my DAW (cubase 7) as far as amp sims or anything really. I tried to duplicate everything. Same settings on my guiltar, same guitar, etc. I'm playing my guitar direct into the AI.
Here are two clips... to me the first sounds SOOOO much better than the second. The first is the Mbox , the second the KA6.

The reason I am asking if it's the AI's is because I still have both, but was about to sell the MBox. If there is no way it's the AI's and it's just something I'm doing with gain somewhere, or settings, or whatever... that's fine. I'll sell the MBox and track down my issues. Just don't want to let a piece of hardware go that sounds better than the one I am keeping.
Oh yeah... and one other difference is the first was exported from cubase as an mp3, the second as a wav. However, both the mp3 and wav are pretty accurate representations of how the music sounds in the DAW playback. So I don't think that has anything to do with it.
Thanks.
EDIT: I'm well aware I need to practice playing the guitar, haha.
