I'm just getting into home recording, and I still have not found a sure way to record guitar.
my equipment includes a a Fender Standard Strat, a Gibson Les Paul Specail, Boss DS-1 distortion pedal, a Zoom 505 effects processer, a 100 Watt Marshall Amp, a Tascam 4-Track, an SM57 mic, an SM58 mic, and a computer with an audiophile 2496 audio card, with Adobe Audition.
I don't know if I should use direct in, mic the amp, put the guitar through the pedals and then go directly in.
Hopefully someone with more experience can help me out. I'm looking for a sound similar to Reel Big Fish's Aaron Barret' on guitar. Not really the ska chords, but the guitar sound quality on reel big fish albums are amazing.
Thanks everybody!
P.S.
In March, I will be getting several more Boss pedals: CS-3 Compression, OD-3 Overdrive, GE-7 Equalizer, PH-3 Phast Shifter, and the RV-3 Reverb Delay.
Also, a Fender PT-100 Tuner, and a Dunlop Cry Baby Wah.
