I do not hesitate to use either. They are different though. Fat Head is closer to a r121. The Trion 7000 is a bit scooped. Here's some comparisons I did a while back: Ribbon Mic comparison using V30 speaker. Mic is 6.5 inches out from speaker rim aimed dead center. Mic Order: R121 Fat...

Thanks for the link.

Can you please post a link?

OP, are you recording the whole song all instruments? start to finish? or just a section?

Fat Head is a very descent all rounder. Don't overlook the mic pre. Not to over generalize, but I've found inexpensive Condensers can be a real hit or miss with the top end... this and an inexpensive pre, can be somewhat lacking. Select carefully. Afford the most quality you can.

Hum, me thinks the OP is over analyzing this. :)

try to always buy the most quality you can.

I should have been way more succinct... I don't have a clue what awesome means when someone else uses that phrase... and especially in the context of a 5 watt amp. Now if someone says, it sounds awesome and here's a clip... then just possibly/maybe a point of reference can be gleaned.

I don't have a clue what sounds awesome is except what sounds awesome to me. I'm not bagging ya, but I generally play much larger amps and I know a 5 watt'r just isn't going to cut it for me and it's not an experience issue.

Your ears should be drawing you to these mics...

Maybe you guys be talkin' past each other. The big sound reference was directed at power chords. For live I agree because it takes power to drive the bottom. No 1 Watt amp's going to deliver a power chord live. I also agree with you but case-by-case. For recording it's a mixed bag. I...

You may want to consider reading this. If direct linking does not work, search for Directivity in the title.

C - 1X B - .1X A - .01X To me C is the most pleasing and A is the least pleasing, so I put B in the middle.

Maybe Samplitude is different from others, but in Samplitude nothing is lost and convenience is gained with a Stereo track.

With two different mic types like a Ribbon and a 57, blending them acts as an excellent EQ. Also, sample sliding can be very beneficial.

you don't have to crank an amp to get get a really good overdriven tone. post a clip that you would send to a speaker emulator and post a clip after your best speaker emulator.

OP, do you have any clips that demo why you're asking?

FWIW... here's a SLO lower gain reamp followed by a short wank for comparison. IMO your DI hangs together much better. Chain is a bit different OD808 -> SLO -> mesa 2x12 -> 12M75 -> r92-i5
