I'm currently using Vegas Pro (amongst other software) and can't seem to get a good guitar tone when recording direct. The only way I can get a decent guitar tone is by turning up the input on my soundcard and micing my amp (I don't have a mixer) I was wondering if even buying a distortion stomp box and taking the line out on it directly to the sound card would work and sound good? I haven't tried it yet since I don't use stomp boxes. The only processor I use is my multi-fx rack unit whch only has vocal distortion. I was looking at things like the line 6 pod which I am sure would do the trick but I'm on a tight budget.
Any suggestions?
