A few days ago i posted some tone tests of just Line6 Pod tones. They sounded okay at the time but I experimented with using Impulses with them and got a lot better results.

I'm going to be doing recording a bunch of my own stuff while I'm at school for fun and i want everything to have the same tone so I'm trying to decide on the uniform tone for the "album".

I am going for that Soilwork/Inflames/Arch Enemy sort of sound.

On my soundclick there are 3 new clips:

Impulse Test 1 (using Heavy_IR impulse)
Impulse Test 2 (using SneapEdge impulse)
Impulse Test 3 (using some other unknown impulse I found on my comp)

All the sounds are using the Line6 Cali Diamond Plate model with the Lune6 tube screamer. In the clips there is no post-EQ'ing of the guitars, Im going to probably stick a HP and LP filter on there to get it a punchier sound.

Let me know which clip you like the best, they are all the same performance with just different impulses so they sound pretty similar.
 
I like number 1 the best... it sounds the least fizzy (to my ears), but they all sound a bit harsh and boomy at times, IMO
