just DI for clean guitar?

[Uncle Junior]

Hi, I have some song to mix and there are some clean parts, i got the DI's from the and i wonder what to use on cleans, amplitube sounded kinda retarded, so i was suggested to use only DI's but they sound kinda too raw.
Any pointers here?

Thanks

maybe run it through an impulse with no ampsim? try some valve distortion too. add reverb and chorus to taste.

I am really digging simualanalogs Fender Sim, it's free, some reverb on it and compression.
It really depends on what kind of clean sound you're after, if it should be just clean, I would
try to use some compression and reverb and eq on the DI, if it should sound like it was
played through a real amp, try the Fender Sim or something like that, I actually liked Amp-
litube for cleans.

Can't go wrong with lepou's LeXtac into an impulse for cleans. Smack a cathedral verb, chorus and delay on it too.

what mic combination would you people use for cleans?

i'd go for my ears

If you're after an acoustic-style clean sound i say ditch the impulses. Comp,eq and reverb will suffice.

Yeah, but I need something to start with as I use Red Wires and there are lots of combinations for my ears to try, haha.
