So when recording your Mustang amp... which do you prefer?

1. Phone out

2. USB out

3. Micing the amp.

And what about micing the amp AND USB or Phones out at the same time? Can you record (or do you) record both at the same time? If so... can this be done with the Mustang I & II or just with the III and above?

On the I&II, plugging into the headphone jack will mute the speaker. The III, IV, and V do this as well but those models have an FX send that functions as a line out, so you don't need to use the headphone out as a line out.

I have an MI, and the speaker isn't great, so I seriously doubt I'll ever mic it...though if I'm ever bored, it might be fun to record some clips all three ways and see how they compare.

I have already recorded some short clips via USB and Line Out, and they seemed very similar. So between those two, I'd just do whichever suits best, given the circumstances.

It would be great to hear the difference between line out/USB and mic.

the Computer sees the Mustang USB as a sound input device that is why it sounds the same as line out because its probably the same, just transmited over USB.

Thanks
