Hi! If one is recording a guitar track (real guitar, real amp, miked amp speaker), what is the best way to get the best input signal? Should you turn the volume completely up on your guitar knob and then turn up your amp a few degrees to get the best gain level as it goes into your audio interface then to your computer? Or should you keep you guitar volume knob low and raise your amp volume up instead? Is there any difference?
Also, for good, clean distortion: do you raise the volume up on your amp as far as possible while keeping your guitar volume knob way down low, or just the opposite?
I have both a tube amp (Fender Music man, vintage model, 2 10's) and a solid state (Crate, 8 12-inch speakers).
Thanks! Mike Freze
