android, JT30, and bandlab recording set up.

[Matt]

Sounds great! Love that amplified tone you are getting. Very nice playing, BB.

[Beelzebob]

Outstanding!  Is that with Amplitube?  I use Amplitube, the free version for PC.

[THE BLUES BOX]

No it's straight from a jt30 into my phone using the irig2 adapter. I tried amplitube couldn't get it all to jive so I uninstalled it.

[Rick]

That is awesome Randy.

It is hard to believe that straight in.   I guess all that great distortion is coming from your JT30.

[THE BLUES BOX]

yeah your right Rick, just for comparison, after painstakingly ordering numberous adapters and wires and jacks, I finally got my laptop rigged up to be able to hook a vocal mic to it so I can record live miked amp, so check this version I recorded with a kalamazoo amp.

[Rick]

The difference between the two samples is small.  All the heavy lifting is being done by the great playing and the JT-30.   The 'Zoo sounds a little less "tinny", but the tone is identical, really.   I do not mean to imply that the first sample sounds "tinny".  it sounds like a difference in recording technique, rather than a diffence in distortion.  I would not be able to hear the difference unless I listened to them side by side.

[THE BLUES BOX]

yeah I thought the same thing Rick, thats pretty interesting lol

[Rick]

That is a cool riff you are playing.  Maybe that is a 7th chord?

[THE BLUES BOX]

no clue, I dont know the technicals of it, I heard a guy doing this on youtube and snatched it up, because I too thought it was a cool sound. thank you btw!
