Here is a mix I did of the Holy Wars DI tracks someone shared on this site. I used the ADA MP-1, Mosvalve 500 poweramp, Genz Benz Gflex 2x12 with an SM57 into my Saffire Pro 40. I put a tubescreamer in front of the ADA as well. What do you think? I'm borrowing the ADA and poweramp from a friend to reamp his guitar tracks for an album I'm recording of his band and he likes a late 80's/ early 90's metal tone.

I run my ADA MP-1 through an oversized 1X12 and am very happy with the tone I get.

As for the running pedals in front, I've used several, but always seem to comeback to the an Ibby TS9, although I've had good results with a Digitech Valve Distortion as well.
 
anyone have any comments on the tone? I don't have the opportunity to practice micing a real amp and cab very often.
