My practice usually has 2 amps on. Always have 4 songs in the looper being developed. Have a notebook where the songs ideas are written down or a few words or chorus. I dont overdo the looper capture, a basic verse & chorus idea as foundation.
Get those 4 songs then matched as I drum to them, then when tempo, chord changes are worked out. Into Reaper we go for tracking.
So practice amps are any of the 2 amps in play at the time.
Lately it is Valco & Supro , Valco & SL100,
The consistency comes maybe from my volume always being the same, for the band or recording. The amps in their designed volume range of their intent. It still feels like the very first jam many years ago every day those amps get fired up ! Good stuff
