You guys re'amping drum sounds too? interesting. I never heard of this much in R&B, hip-hop or dance.
The amp that I used sounds amazing, an old Alamo Model 3 tube amp. It's pretty small and hard to come by, but is a really great amp comparable to the Fender Champ series.

Thanks for the responses. What mics are you guys using, I've been thinking about picking up an SM7b for recording re-amped synths, vox and bass......what do you think?

Also does anyone have any experience with an iso box in this respect. I live in an apartment so the noise factor is always an issue, but I'm too afraid that the sound of an amp in an iso box will sound too dead.........maybe not?

Keep it coming.
