what's the best rig to record direct with?

I know this is going to get some laughs, but take a look at the new Zoom G2.1u. This thing, in my opinion sounds great. It has some real decent amp modelers and effects and is quiet as can be. It has two different settings for each model, one for going through your amp, and one for recording direct.

It takes a bit to tweak it in, the factory settings were all wrong for my set up, way too hot, but after playing with it a while, you can get just about any sound you want from it.

just my two cents,
hope this helps

how's about a sample?

I don't have anything right now, but I'll try to get something together.

okay, I threw something together this morning with the Zoom g2.1u pedal. I'm not much of a guitarist, just goof around. Mostly I record stuff on a much "gentler" scale. You can go here and hear the sample.

Click on where it says "play" for sample track.

hope it sounds alright. I accept critiques, it won't punish my ego.
