Ok, I'm having trouble getting a good crunchy sound out of my guitar when I'm recording direct, and every software distortion I've tried sounds like I'm playing a tin can. (Don't say "mic a 4 x 12" cab" because I live in an apartment so DI is my only option now.)
Which of these setups would work better?
Guitar --> Boss Distortion Pedal --> ART Tube MP --> DAW
or (I *think* the ART will accept a external speaker output / power amp out... let me know if this is a bad idea)
Guitar --> Amp (Distortion) --> (Powered External Speaker Jack) --> ART Tube MP (to bring the signal WAY down) --> DAW
or
Know of any good software distortion?
Thanks!
