I have the twin channel and use it with a cab mic 57 or Ribbon
There is something about the sound that seems so on the front edge of the monitors that I think it must be one of these.

Not that cheap though.

I thought all great guitar sounds came from a Rockman, I didn't know about the goat.

PS But none of this works without the correct incantation and the date of manufacture being 6/6/06.

Pretty sure its DI'd guitar ala Trent Reznor style. I agree.........huge sound. I'd also love to know the exact chain they use.

They use a Neumann M149 and API 512 preamp with an additional pad on the mic cable. The mic is very close to the cabinet.

Amps is Mesa Boogie.

Source for this info is from the actual recording engineer.
