Hi Vernon. I am impressed by the tone of your MCI. Could you please describe your recording process: ie amp, effects, etc? Thanks.

Thanks,Bob, Richard.

Richard, I use a simple setup.Guitar into a tube pre-amp,effects out of pre-amp into a Lexicon MX200.The 200 is set for 8% Chamber or Large Plate,on one ch,10% Chorus on the other.from there to a Lexicon MPX 100.which is set on Program user,varation 15.Mix is at 9:15.Lexicon feeds a small mixer with ch 1 pan full left,ch 2 full right.Trks are from B-I-Box or Yamaha keyboard. I feed Band In the box into the Yamaha from my Sony computer.The Yamaha has a 32 Poly note soundcard.The Yamaha comes back to Ch 4 of the mixer for recording.
