Hey guys, so i have a bugera 333xl infinium head. When i run it through the cab it is fantastic nice tight distortion. But when i hook it up to my interface through the lineout to record all i can get is a loose fuzzy distortion. Ive tried adjusting all the settings on the lead and crunch channels. Anyone have any expierence with these amps or this type of issue?

They are not giving them away ($299) but it's a pretty cool cab simulator/DI combo._________________

Re: Recording with a bugera?
ISO cabs always sound a little boxy to me (no pun intended) and don't breathe like micing a cab does. Line outs are always terrible BTW, and I hope you still have the head plugged into a load while doing that, otherwise your doing damage.
If you can't record it properly with a mic (properly meaning loud enough to sound good) then I would look into speaker emulators or at that point, an amp sim of some point.
I have also found converting a closet into a makeshift iso booth to sound much better (and a whole lot cheaper) than an iso cab.TOUQUE ROCK...EH???? I AM CANADIAN

Re: Recording with a bugera?
I've got the same amp (333xl Infinium) & used it to record my guitar tracks for my band's album last year. Mic'd the cab (Bugera 4x12) with an Audio Technica Mbk-2 (excellent mic.. for $50 ) & ran it into my 10 year old Zoom MRS 1044 portable multi-track recorder & things turned out pretty well...
A couple of rough mixes with the raw/unedited guitar tracks (one rhythm track each panned hard L/R ..& the solo slightly off center):
Just guitar/drums (no bass)
...you can get some nice SLO/hot-rodded JCM 800 type tones with the 333XL ...really meaty.Last edited by Phantasmagoria; 01-14-2015, 02:33 AM."Less is less, more is more...how can less be more?" ~Yngwie J Malmsteen
