So a quick questions, is you use a GCS-2/3 in the loop or after your MP1/2, for a live situation you go to the PA or you carry around power speakers or any other FRFR cabinet? Also, the ¨tone suck¨ issue that many complain of the MP-1/2 loop is not a problem here?Hey El, tone suck depends on what you put it MP1/2 loop, bigger problem with MP1 as loop is serial (not mixed in to signal like MP2)
with MP2 you don't need the GCS2/3, it's got great cab sims already and in stereo (and if you did this with MP1 makes sense to put the cab sim in the loop and keep output stereo). But yes that's the setup, some prefer it (for various reasons) works well with IEM for example. I generally record with cab sims (MP2) (keeps out the traffic noise etc.) but live I still prefer power amp / cabs
and real drums. I'm happy with cab sims for recording, but very much prefer normal loud guit through guit cabs, but some like it better with cab sims and PA boxes.
