I wanted to give my new Fostex d160 a good workout, so I recorded sixteen drum tracks at a remote location for a local band in two days. We tracked the drums on six mics while using the remaining two tracks for dry mono bass and dry mono electric guitar. Recording chain was guitar/bass - presonus blue tube - fostex mixer - fostex d160. I will dump all tracks to protools/digi001 back in my basement. We really planned on the guitar track just being a scratch track, but I am looking for suggestions of what to do to maybe use this dry track. How about running it back through an old tube amp and micing it? I also have a Johnson J-station. Has anybody had good results running a dry guitar back through a direct recording amp?
Any suggestions welcome.
