I’m recording my first album using real drums that I’m recording with two mics. I used to use drum programs like EZDrummer so it was fine to use just regular guitar plugins. Now that I’m using real drums recorded in a room, the guitars used with VSTs sound off and way more artificial now when compared to the real drums. I want something that I can record with the same mics I use on the drums to give it that “same room” sound. I’d like a budget amp, whether new or used, that’s great for recording old death metal with a mic. Budget is $300. Would spend a little over if needed, but just really would like something that will sound great when recorded and isn’t going to cost me a mortgage.

I saw this and it's pretty great idea. https://youtube.com/shorts/3vpo_dsLWcI?feature=share

I was a huge fan of Line6 in the beginning personally.

However for your price range I think a quality amp sim could be a great setup. I would recommend Neural DSP in a flavor of your choice.
