whoopy...I really enjoy the blend of using mics with a direct signal. I love the sound of my Ampeg amp and Eden cab. In serious recordings I will use the J48 DI, and a Mic on the Eden (D112). Sometimes I use the DI on the Ampeg or a sm57 on the Eden (as well) for more tone options. The Ampeg has such a great EQ and the tightness of the Eden really shines on the recording. I have heard instanced where just a DI works really well. Victor Wooten uses a DI on all his solo recordings and with the Flecktones, works well for him because he wants the cleanest sound for his extremely clean sounding Foderas.
