Hi.
Im trying to record guitar direct (Fender Stratocaster), using my Blackstar HT40 into my Palmer PDI 03 then into my Tascam DP24.
It seems no matter what i do the guitar sounds muddy and muffled, i try to compensate with a bit of high end but then it just sounds fizzy and harsh.
The sound just never sounds clear, individual strings just sound muffled and messy.
Im very modest with the gain, never going over 12 0'clock.
I know most will say, always use a mic, but iv heard some very good results from people using the Palmer.
My question is... Should i be adding something else in the chain or is there just something im doing wrong?
Any questions, info or answers would be much appreciated.
Thanks
