Tried something new (at least for me) and send the DI through an ibanez TS9 and back to my DAW. And wow this gave me really this extra low-end punch and dynamics i always missed by only using TSS etc. Than i run rcomp with a decompression setup after the 8505 and after the impulse, and bump it really came to life. The exact chain was TS9->TSS->8505->RComp->Rev-mkII(for IR)->Rcomp->C4 (no EQ). I used one of Guitar Hack´s IR´s and it could sound a little harsh for some people. But it´s no problem cause their are many GH IR´s with less highend.
