    how do i get some attack out of my squier p-bass

    i think the title says it all, if u have this bass u probably know what i mean. it fills out the bottom end of my mixes ok (so it sounds to me, anyway) - but it has absolutely no punch, its just growling really. now i'm not far from the worst bass player in the world, but i dont think its just...

    two guitars in amp with one input

    im ready to get laughed at, but i'm really curious if this would work, and/or if it would damage the amp or whatever.. lets say i want two guitars running directly into one amp. but it has only one input, so i use an adapter (2 jacks to stereo) good? not good? stupid?

    normalizing

    does normalizing (so is it called in cubase, raising/lowering audio to a specified amount of db..) lessen the quality of the affected clip? i mean it probably does, more or less.. but when is it critical, or how much of a boost should i avoid? as for the usage: after i recorded, i would use it...
