therightclique Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Your tone should be identical with either, but one might introduce latency or be more complicated to work with for recording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cclement Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Your tone should be identical with either, but one might introduce latency or be more complicated to work with for recording. This isn't entirely true. Your monitors you have hooked to your DAW are going to sound different than the PA speakers where you are playing. So you will get in the "ballpark" designing/tweaking your tones via your DAW at home... but they won't sound the same when you play them live. Also the (ever popular) Fletcher-Munson curve kicks in when playing live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
