Thanks for the explanation , now I got it. it would be a very similar use case for me since I would only record at home and could use external IR. I see as disadvantage that the cheaper version attenuates –20DB and maybe would require some tuning to do silent recording
You can do silent recording, just don't plug the cab in the Captor. When there's a cab plugged in, the captor does not load the energy, the cab does. When there's no cab plugged, the captor loads the amps energy and you're safe to record silently.

All I miss in the Captor V1 is a switch to disengage the cabs instead of having to physically remove the cab's jack out of its socket. A switch in its front would be nice.

ok i think you convinced me to get the "standard" Captor.

Thanks for the explanation.

Not sure how we feel about at home digital rigs....

Finally got my desk set up with everything plugged in and all cables routed. It's been so much more conducive to me actually sitting down and playing more guitar. I splurged a bit on myself for post Christmas to get the Saffire 18i8 and the power strip, I've got the Axe going into the Saffire via SPDIF so everything is tidy and highly functional.

Plugged back into the Badlander after playing and tweaking (mainly tweaking) with a Fractal FM9. I was gonna sell it, but it's staying. So good! Probably return or sell the FM9.
