Anyone here use a full digital setup? Looking for recommendations and perhaps some uterine on how to set things like this up to work in Reaper.......
GarageBand/iRig setup is fine for a musical sketch pad, but I'm not overly happy with stuff.....

Reaper or any other DAW recording software works fine with amp emulator program like Guitar Rig or Amplitube. You can get a pretty good sound out of that. All you need is a soundcard and a couple of monitors. Easy to setup and work with. I do use Guitar rig to record ideas and preprod stuff. But honestly I think All tune amp is the way to go if you need quality sound both live and in studio.

My guitar is full digital, when I record. Straight from the amp emulator on my pedal to the USB on my laptop.
Mic setup isn't much different. Straight from the mic to the USB on my laptop.
I let the Sonar 6 Producer Edition and iZotope Ozone 5 algorithms do their magic as to what it REALLY sounds like.

Once I upgraded to one of the newer iRig variants, most of my "problems" went away.

Been using Brainworks vst guitar amps and foot switches. To me these are the best amp emulations so far. www.plugin-alliance.com/en/products.htmlBut i bought several real guitar amps and im using a load box as a compensator for not having a real speaker connected. The load box has a line output i connect to my audio interface and there in my daw i emulate the speakers (ownhammer.com). Sounds great and i can have my amps turned all the way up and record with my headphones nicely quietly.

For my guitar I often go: Guitar - interface - Amplitube 4, although I definietly need to get a DI box to clean up the signal a bit, I also record my amp via mic; I might start doing this more in the future because I really like the sound of a real amp. ^_^

Well, for my track this year, things were done in an interesting manner.
I've been recording with and iRig HD2, into GarageBand. (Last year's track had guitars and bass recorded in the IOS variant, this year was done on a Mac). It sounded good enough, or so I thought.
Then my collaborator had me turn off all the GB amp sims and FX, and send him clean WAV files for the tracks that he then re-amped thru a Kemper Profiler, into Logic. UNBELIEVABLE difference.
Last year's track sounded "good". Frankly, REALLY good given how it was recorded and mixed, and that it was my first attempt EVER at doing something intended for public release.
This year, outside of a spot or two that are totally related to my own sloppy playing and recording inexperience, it sounds "professional", IMO. Can't wait for people to hear it.....
