Guitar Pedal
For my electric guitar tones in this video, I ran my chain through a distortion pedal into the amp and cab, then captured it with both mics. A simple pedal like this is an easy way to get a consistent, mix-ready drive sound when you’re tracking at home.
Pros
- +Easy way to dial in distortion for recording guitars
- +Works well in a straightforward home studio signal chain
Cons
- -Tone depends heavily on the amp/cab and mic placement
- -Can get harsh if you don’t balance the EQ in the mix
