I'm using an m-audio firewire solo, which i believe is something like 24/96khz quality. not the best but far from the worst. should be able to produce a decent sound with the right tweaking. I have an excellent fender that cost over 1000$. Sounds great through any amp.
I cannot, for the life of me, get a truly satisfying sound through logic express. I've tried mic-ing my amp, plugging my amp into the interface, and of course just plugging the guitar into the firewire. If I play with the EQ and other sound options in Logic, I can make it better, but still not satisfying. It still sounds - processsed I guess is the word. A very flat guitar sound without much life. Anyone have any recipes with logic effect settings that sound very good? Or advice for getting a better sound? |

Your audio interface is fine. You can even get good takes from the 'built-in audio' on your mac at 16/48. DO NOT spend more money on more gear.
Like monkeyboy said: Some chorus, some reverb and doubling are always a step in the right direction. It's not the gear. You can get great guitar sounds straight out of logic. It just takes a little poking around and listening. Rotsaruck -------------------- |
