I may have done this one wrong in the POD Farm but I tried to match its settings as closely as I could to the real thing. I also tried to get the levels as close as possible, and according the Cubase the POD farm is about 1 DB louder at its peak. The chain is the same as before except the AC4 now has a Boss DS1 distortion pedal with the tone at about 11 o'clock and the distortion at 10 o'clock. Had to make it an MP3 so that I could attach it.

You can hear the guitar strings a bit on the AC4 one... sorry for that. I want to get you guys a natural overdrive sample of the AC4 but my GF decided to take a nap

I'll get you that one when I can. Oh yeah, the AC4TV was at the 1 watt setting for both of these. It sounds bigger and fuller at the full four watts but it also gets very loud and not very apartment friendly.

Even though the POD Farm is louder at its peak, it sounds much thinner than the real thing IMHO.
