Scott Henderson Discussion

hi scott,
i have a question: after having had quite a large number of different amps and fx-units, i´m still wondering, what´s the point, why do some systems sound very direct and some won´t...
now, could it be possible, that it´s the most important thing to have just analog pedals before the preamp? is this the reason, that many of the soundcracks still play tons of pedals, though it´s much more uncomfortable?
could it be that f.e. with the new t.c.g-system, the bad thing is the A/D and D/A converter before the preamp? i mean it would be really great to be able to go to this one unit and have everything done there...but i won´t lose the impression that it´s not that quality anymore that i hear, when i listen to my friends pedalboard without midi etc., though he really passes a lot of pedals...
thanks and best regards
