A clean riff (top) played through my DIY tube screamer clone and then through the overdrive channel on my amp (Marshall MG15CFR) with gain at half.

Rhythm Riff - Clean

Using AC/DC's T.N.T. as a riff for attempting to record with various amps direct into USB audio interface (i.e., no mic) for silent recording.

SL5 + Jettenuator (Gain)

SL5 + Jettenuator (Crunch)

MG15CFR

VOX AP2-LD

VOX AP2-CR

Comparing different settings and connections between SL5, Jettenuator & M-Audio 2x2.

This is contrasted with the earlier silent recordings where there was no sound output. One advantage when playing with louder volume is it seems to require less gain and therefore lower 60Hz hum / noise floor.

05 - Guitar Direct, TRS Input 2 (Low Z)

04 - SL5 (5W, MV 5), Jettenuator (Atten 1, Line out), TRS Input 2 (Low Z)

03 - SL5 (5W, MV 5), Jettenuator (Atten 2, Line out), TRS Input 2 (Low Z)

02 - SL5 (5W, MV 5), Jettenuator (Atten 2, Line out), TRS Input 1

01 - SL5 (5W, MV 5), Jettenuator (Atten 2, MicSim), XLR Input 1

Recording both line out & MicSim, on L/R channels, respectively.

Stereo Riff XLR+TRS

Using GN'R "Out Ta Get Me" riff to test direct recording. This was the best mix of the attempts. Sloppy playing though!
