    ITs not the guitar input.

    The guitar inputs sounds fine - if the signal from guitar is directly coming to hte amp.
    But since I use the sansamp and KORG, I prefer to send it to the line-in/CD-in call it anything. That input doesnt color the tone.

    Guys i've a similar query...
    I've been playing fr sum 3-4yrs... Hv got a digitechRP80, a stranger 20w amp, n a chinese made 3single coil pikups guitar... Nw i feel like upgrading... I play mostly death metal or hard rock (system, disturbed, marilyn manson, children of bodom n so), so thought of getting a dist. pedal, a metallizer/ amt fatal tube dist/ boss mt2. Or shall i get a second hand zoom g2.1u... But will dat b a real upgradation? Coz i've tried one of my friend's... Just a marginal difference, so will it b worth spending on such minor thing... but u do need an eq, noise reduction, delay sumtyms too... can i get it wid my processor by sumhw connecting it wid pedal... i saved arnd 6k, so i cant get those things seperately... In dat case, shall i go fr sum second hand g2.1u( thou m nt really moved by the idea of getting it)... N as far s upgrading my guitar is concerned, dat cant b done bfr may coz dat will b when i'll go home n manage sum kind of bonus gift frm my grandparents... pls give your valuable suggestions....

    sansamp is a pre-amp.

    sam - MT-2 may help

    Alright, so mt-2 is the best choice... But can i add more effects to the distortion by using the processor... I mean take the output frm the processor n give it as input into the pedal?? Sounds weird.. But sorry i got no real idea... Newys man, i suppose i must make a new thread fr getting more attention to this query...
