Being both poor and unprofessional, I bung the guitar direct into the soundcard

(oh OK, via a plain little pre-amp), then, via JACK, have one path directed to

rakarrack and another to timemachine.
rakarrack kindly connects itself to both the input and the output and loads my

preferred effects - so that nice and quick, and timemachine has that lovely big

button.
Instant 'full' sound and at the same time clean recording. Never noticed any

latency when playing, and I actually have no idea at all what it's set to in

qjackctl - once set, totally forgotten :)

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.

Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
