Getting a good live sound

[Lozz196]

Yup, this eve at rehearsal I used a Hiwatt amp into a Peavey 410, couldn’t get any kind of sound I liked but it just sounded excellent in the mix. There’s no way I could put up with that sound at home though.

All that matters dude

I don't play through an amp at home, ever - I use my iPad with Jamup Pro and a SonicPort to play along with stuff (and faff about with amps and effects), but even then you can hear the difference immediately between a pleasant solo sound and something that fits better played along to a 'band'...it makes for a good learning curve instead of having bandmates stand around while you fiddle with your EQ...
