I've found that if i turn the microphone input levels all the way up, i can get distortion out of my electric guitar. i know the signal from the guitar has no distortion; plug it into an amp, and it's just a loud but clear aignal. so i assume it's either from software-based clipping from a digital multiplier with a cap or something, or else it's from diode protection on the input.
if it's the latter, is there any harm is doing this? as the only way to get distorion in real-time, it's rather convenient and saves the expense of a distortion pedal.
