Thanks so much guys.
It's really appreciated.
@evadianepug - The Super Crunchbox was designed to be played into an amp. If you plugged it into the interface is would be really "buzzy". I have had a degree of success buy plugging the Crunchbox into a Hughes and Kettner Redbox and then into the interface. The tone wasn't bad at all. I did a little demo with this setup and you can hear it here.
This was recorded with the Les Paul into the Crunchbox then into the Redbox and then into the desk.

It's become a "virtual" environment. I still love to use "acoustic" spaces and rooms for recording. Obviously there are viable uses for digital modelling etc but there is definitely something "organic" about putting mics in front of instruments to get the sound.
@ Bob - thanks for your comments. It's much appreciated.
Cheers,
Peter.
