I didn't tweak the amp or mic-position and the playing isn't top-notch either..I know..
anyway, here's a short sample of doubletracked guits
one is with the RME ADI8 set to +4 and the gain on the API accordingly (peaking 6dB on the meter, but mostly around zero).
the other one is with the RME set to high-gain and the gain on the API raised, so that the meters show +6 most of the time....
I kinda like what the preamp adds if it's driven hard...
decide yourself and tell me what you think:
normal
hot
