Thanks very much, physics. As a salutation I'd like to invite you to

Some message boards provide direct wrappers for select links like YouTube and Soundcloud. This one doesn't or at least I haven't found the means.
I found your blending phone with PC very interesting and also quite decent, though short.
I am aware of the intricacies of mic placement having spent the better part of 50 years in audio but primarily in analog. I've toyed with digital only in the last 10 years and mostly in an effort to salvage old cassette live recordings. I've been using Slackware Linux as my Main daily driver since late 1999 and I startyyed using Ardour when Mr Davis called it "pre alpha" lol. It didn't even have an INSTALL text file and the README just said "It's pre-alpha. This is just public documentation and I can't be bothered fielding tech support. I'm too busy getting to alpha. Maybe by beta release I'll include installation instructions". That's paraphrased but is basically what he said
I've been posting mostly clean and clean- ish clips here and I see you are into Metal and I'm fascinated you're playing EVM-12Ss . The only other player I've known in half a century in Music is David Lindley. Back in the '80s I took a forerunner of this new amp down to an intimate DC club where his band, El Rayo X, was playing for an afternoon sound check. Back then he was the only player I knew who was using Dumble amps and I wanted his opinion and even criticisms. He asked me what speaker was in my combo and it made me grin because it was an oddball cast frame Celestion that hasn't been made now for decades because it didn't sell well compared to the much cheaper stamped frame models. I grinned because I could see the puzzlement on his face and then I commented that he had just confirmed for me I picked the right first guy because he obviously knew that he knew most common speakers so well and he couldn't place this one.
Anyway, though I'm not a chug! kinda guy I do enjoy some serious fuzz and I know a lot of players wanna hear hi gain. So here's one just for you....

Here's one that' I posted to another message board in response to the all-too-common misconception that you need an amp under 5 watts to record in a bedroom or apartment. Regardless of what many charts show, I've measured SPLs in restaurants and nightclubs and fairly soft table conversation has common peaks of around 75-80db, averaging around 68-72db C-Weighted. 65db is probably at least A-Weighted and I'm guessing also quite conservative and hardly real world representative.
In any case this recording was made with an SM57 right on the grille cloth pointed at the joint of the dust cap and cone, at peaks of 78db on my handheld SPL meter at 1 meter distance. I could hear the strings acoustically at least as loud as the amp. It's a mono track so I just quick 'n dirty dumped it into Audacity where, in Post I added, Reverb, Delay, and Normalized Volume. In my view it sounds bad but it doesn't sound thin or wimpy. I'd love to hear your reactions on either or both of these.

Thanks. again, Brother.
OOPS! Forgot to mention that first clip is Iron Bell Fuzz on 100% of the recording. Increases and decreases in gain are strictly guitar Volume control.
the 2nd clip is no effects, just the amp with both Volume and Gain around "7". Master Volume just cracked open slightly. I never play that distorted so I don't need the Master to use a Log-Log Taper to flatten it out any more than it is but it's easily done.
