On a budget of $300/500, that's not going to leave much change for a stereo preamp. The Focusrite Penta has a very clean (albeit mono) preamp and a very usuable preprogrammed/further tweakable optical (stereo) compressor, plus an excellent tube emulator and stereo width processing section...

Second that!

MMm..sounds worthy of further investigation. Thanks for sharing some of your insights, Chessrock.

Knew it! Care to extrapolate?

Sorry, I don't know how good they are or anything, but I was curious as to what people thought, and if anyone was familiar with them. Just piqued my interest, that's all.

I guess the same can be said for everyone (not least of all me)! Did we ever find out what preamps they were?

Check out the MP-1A description and price...

I'm not seeing any consistency here.

Well, at least you're finally learning how to be concise.

You talk too much, dude. And your spelling sucks.

I've been thinking, just for kicks, of reamping bass through a Trace Elliot and mic'ing each driver (there are three). That's gotta give you some flexibilty!

I see. And what distortion generator did you use on the output buss?

B seems to have a bit more bite and presence, but the difference is pretty insignificant.

..which explains your not seeing the need to use a real amp in the studio.

I see, so were only done when you've had the last word, gotcha! (^: Awe, go on then - have the last word or 4000, extrapolate away, drop a name or two, throw in a mention of the orchestra again, and we'll definitely be done.

Are we done?

The 'purpose' is to get a good tone down without the need to dick around with it for hours, which using DI always requires, and even then it'll never be right. Granted though, Death Metal has evolved in tandem with a tone that doesn't require much in the way of dynamics or articulation (that's...

Recording with a click sure helps with any editing/cutting/pasting they might want done later!

Well, the last thing you need is a Fender Twin: it's big, heavy. LOUD and bright. The little Orange amps are nice. Since it's for recording only, you can really home in on the tone. The little Champ amp you mention would be a good choice.
