Studio playing/recording
In the Studio, the Fathead makes an excellent pre amp for direct recording
and acoustic recording alike. For direct recording onto a computer, you
might try the following:
HINT: Switch the DI output to 'pre' mode, and separately adjust the volume
control. This gives you a clean channel of pure guitar as well as a track
with effects on it. You can use effects liberally, and record them, while
gaining a separate clean track that can be used later on.
Advanced stage use
In a band that uses front of house PA, where you also want a great stage
sound, you may want to set up the Fathead as shown here:
