    Direct vs. micing a guitar amp

    Preamp into Preamp = Bad idea?

    so an interface/mixer/anything that can have built in pres, will be bypassable if you use the 1/4 ins? so the Firepods pres are all bypassable aslong as you dont use the XLR jacks?

    Is this a possibility?

    Feedback on this Mix Please!!!
