Well everyone has a way they like to do stuff but I recommend this as a great way of recording.
The way I use it is to put it in the FX-bin on a dry signal and I can open as many instances of it as I like on numerous tracks. Because of direct monitoring I can also play through it live. If I play live through it using just a dry guitar signal going through another preamp, then this is also a dry signal, obviously.
My preferred method though is to open the standalone version inside my DAW so it's kinda like separate but part of it and I run as many dry signals as I like or it could just be one or I can copy them.
Once the standalone is there I can record any amount of presets or tweaked patches into individual tracks. I just open a track and play through the input monitoring or direct monitoring and record it and move on to another a track - it's so versatile.
If I'm unhappy with a sound then I can put the plug-in onto the corresponding dry signal and tweak away. The standalone and plug-in do not update each other when you tweak, they are separate items.
I use track templates so anything I want to do is right to hand.
Whatever you can think of you can pretty much do.
