> Take the example of a guitarist. He turns his guitar up as high as he can, then the amp gain as high without distorting it. Then at the sound console. etc
Without distorting it? Are you sure you have some sound knowledge? That doesn't sound like you know many guitarists... ;)
I've worked in Austin as a live sound mixer (FOH engineer, as we say) for a while now, and it's evenly split-some will say build your gain structure using the exact method; up until you clip, and back off from there.
