So this has been a long process spanning many months of trial and error, tons of research, and mulitple hours on youtube. I have yet to find what my problem really is and have finally given in to asking for help.
The issue is this : guitar tone sounds extremely overdriven and static-y.
I have used 3 different guitars, 2 with EMG 81/85 and the other stock.
Used cheap cables to mogami.
Different DAW's, FL Studio and Cubase (primarily use FL Studio)
Have tried a wide assortment of amp sims, guitar impulses, and pedals
Have ensured that all of my connections are indeed grounded
I am plugged in to the INST input of my interface (Line6 UX1)
Buffer size and bit rate are optimal
Used many EQ's to no avail
Doesn't matter how much gain or drive I use it still always sounds extremely overdriven
Really I've done just about everything I have read on these forums and countless more. I could really use your help. I'm near concluding that it is my interface and the INST input doesnt have a working Lo-z/Hi-z relay.
My primary chain is:
Schecter Platinum C-1 w/ EMG 81/85 ---> Line6 UX1 ---> TSE 808 ---> Poulin Legion Amp Sim (or Nick Crow 8505 Lead) ---> LeCab (Andy Sneap Impulse)
Here is the audio file

Any advice is great, just throw around some ideas if you could.
