I have a fender princeton chorus.It has 2 speakers not sure 12" or 10".Should i use 2 mics on each speaker or im ok with just one sm57.Will i be getting enough sound.I'm rarely gonna use stereo chorus.
How would i go direct.I have a Pandora..The amp i dont think has a line out or if it did itll sound terrible..The line 6 pod has made my music sound to digital in my opinion and hasn't had a natural effect on guitars.It sounds to perfect rather than a good amp that sounds natural.
The way I do it is I go direct visa-vee the headphone jack directly into the line in on the back of the PC.
I have to adjust the preferences in the Audio/Multimedia folder of the contrl panel folder to line in. I also have to bring the volume way down due to the fact that the signal is modulated already.
I use a small Fender Bullet Reverb. A bigger amp might blow out your monitor/PC speakers and, or damage your soundcard.
It works for me but, I am not sure if it is the correct way to do it.
Everything that I have read to date reccomends Mic-ing the amp.
Good luck
If YOU use a tube pre after the DSP unit you will take the digital sound out of it. And get a smoother effect. Be careful when you use a Headphone out and start with the gain all the way down and inch up. as long as you stay out of the red It will be cool.
