mix D

your choices:
a behringer v-tone (boogie setting)
amplitube 2 (metal amp)
studio devil (free version, everything maxed out)
randall g3 preamp out into behringer cab sim

A here, I think B is the worst by far

thanks for playing! yeah, B is the worst, huh.

answers:
A = ampeg 2 (nearly stock metal amp settings)
B = behringer v-tone (boogie setting)
C = randall G3 into behringer ultra-G with cab sim on
D = studio devil (I can't seem to make it sound good, but some people can).

I have to say ampeg 2 really impressed me this time around, but the randall direct sounds a bit better to me (or, rather, like stuff I typically listen to I guess).

I think I'm going to give up on the studio devil, and only use the v-tone for goofing around, nothing serious.

went ahead and did a quad-mix with randall direct & amplitube, and added OD to the bass:
