Mesa Boogie dual rec with impulse

[Disconnekt]

Well...through the HP, it's not the HP itself that is coloring, I should've explained that in my original reply, but rather the color of the power section in the amp you are using. So, yes, the HotPlate doesn't color the sound, basically.

Sounds good! Maybe this is the answer (if RVIII isn't).

Hey, how does the line out on the Hot Plate sound with impulses (compared to actually putting a mic on the cab without an attenuator)?

It sounds great with impulses. In fact, all of the lead guitar parts on my band's album were done this way. I could have even done all the rhythm parts this way, but I had the availability of a studio at that point to mic up the cab.

One thing I've found with using impulses is that you have to do a bit more post processing than you would with a miked cab recording, but it can sound just as good as the real thing with some experimentation.

PS - My Hot Plate is still up for auction!
