I don't know if this is a problem or a feature, but often when I play the first note (let's say after a small break in the song or something), the output led goes red during the pick attack.
Here is brief test. I am using a factory rig by Keith Merrow, "KM-THRASH". No stomps or effects. Clean sense -6.3, output through spdif to Roland Quad Capture. Noise gate 5.0. Firmware public beta 2.2.0.8917B. Guitar is Schecter Blackjack w/ Seymour Duncan Full Shred.
The problem (to me at least) is that when lightly touching the strings with the side of the pick (the first eight peaks in the wav), the output goes easily red and I hear a sound that is a bit unnatural and reminds me of actually clipping the output. This doesn't happen if I use similar pick attack while strumming chords (as in 0:03-0:11 in the mp3 clip). In 0:14 one can hear the problem again very clearly, I hope.
I am pretty sure that the output with headphones behaves ok, so maybe this is spdif related?
