I'm curious what levels (in dBu) you guys are aiming for when reamping and/or capturing; what's your typical level of the signal going into the amp input?
Intuitively I think it would make sense to aim for dBU levels in the same ballpark that your guitars put out. On the other hand, I've seen people argue for having hotter signals than that (very much so) - at least when capturing. One argument seem to be to capture how the amp reacts when boosted etc. If you are in this camp; what levels (in dBu) are you hitting your amp with and are you worried about putting a too hot signal into the amp?
