I simply run the output of my spark 40 modeling amp into my focusrite interface. I can hear it through my studio monitors regardless of whether I'm in BB or sonar or none.

Simple setup.

I can then easily load any of the many BB guitar solos and learn them or use them as inspiration or simply record what I come up with.

Add nothing that adds nothing to the music.
You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
