After this question I posted a couple days ago:
http://www.homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=210864
I've been looking for a new combo amp. I've seen several that look nice and within my price range (like this: http://www.guitarcenter.com/shop/product/buy_marshall_mg30dfx_combo?full_sku=101704088), but after going to guitar center and checking them out, I noticed the amp output was labled "headphone/ simulated out". The rep said that this output to my PC would produce a "brittle" sound.
Being the newbie and all, can anyone explain what a "simulated out" is, why it wouldnt produce a good sound to pass through to my PC, and what I should look for instead?
Google and wiki had nothing for me, so thanks for any help.
