its super hard to record, because the output from the "normal" position to the "full" position, differs by quite a bit. by the time it goes up my amp is overdriving, you can hear it in the second broken chord and lick (gain at 5 , volume at 3)

as a result the mic starts to clip, hence that harsh clipping you hear when it gets a bit loud. the only way i know around it is to record each setting individually and play with the input volume. but that kinda doesnt show the whole story

also the room is not well suited for recording, i had to do about 3 takes just to get hte interference out.

Recording Specs:

AMp : AC 15 normal chan (vol 3, Gain 5, Reverb 4, presence 5)
Recorded via: Blue yeti, Straight in-front of amp, Gain at 5
Input vol : vary 80%- 40% to control excess clipping
Software : Audacity

nah overdriven != clipping.
