Farview said:I would say that the whole idea behind reamping is to get the performance with whatever tone (or lack of tone) makes the guitar player feel good. Then, you can do whatever you want with the sound later.
All amp sims sound different, if the pod sounds better to you than UAD nigel, use the pod.
Agreed. It's also nice to be able to try several different amp layers. Sometimes a re-amped track through an amp-sim will kind of smooth things out when placed underneath your main mic'ed tone. Also, if the guitarist has a bunch of effects that he relies on for his tone (such as myself). Put the DI after the guitar and before the effect and you can go back later and have more control over the sound. Or if there's a mistake, such as a funky tempo on the delay, you've got something to cover your ass. A reamp box is definitely one of those tools that's not necessary, but there's no reason not to have one.
