One of the things that I hate the most about recording guitar is placing my Shure SM57 mic up to my 6505+ 112, dialing in a tone, chugging repeatedly trying to adjust the mic, and then have some clumsy idiot crash and burn all the work I did by bumping in to a cable moving it a centimeter. Not only that, I feel that I'm not able to get the most out of my amp due to poor room treatment and not having another person to help out with setup.
Here is my current setup:
Jackson Dinky DK2L -> Peavey 6505+ 112 Combo Amp w/ Celestion V30 -> Shure SM57 -> Tascam US-1641 or AudioBox USB -> Studio One V2
I was looking in to so Amp Modelers and ran across the Line 6 POD HD Pro and it sounds awesome, but Im seriously worried that if I purchase this guy I will be majorly sacrificing tone for ease of use. By that same token, the ease of use may help create more consistency between sessions for making a cohesive record. I'm also loving the idea of being able to record in total silence, since my 6505+ doesn't get a full, warm tone until my neighbors call the police
Does anyone have any experience or recommendations? I plan on keeping my 6505+.....I NEVER sell music equipment. Thanks for reading!
