Greetings!
So, I decided to dabble in the digital world a touch. I went ahead and avoided FRFR for now, since I already have a 2x12 Lonestar cab with C90s in it.
I followed Line 6's video for going to Power amp and then Cab. Basically, hooked it up and changed the output to line level.
I decided just to go through some of the presets (the DIR ones) like the Litigator, Archetype, etc...
One thing I've read is that you should either disable the cab block or change from A+C to just amp. I've noticed that, at least for the presets, getting rid of the cab block simply makes it sound like a can of bees. It actually sounds BETTER in every single preset with the cab enabled.
I'm sure there are 1000 factors here, but this just seems odd since I figured it would be the opposite.
I still have hours and hours of playing with this thing to do, so no biggie, but I figured it was worth at least bringing up.
Time to build some presets from scratch, methinks. :)
