[LAU] Distortion with preamp

[Leslie P. Polzer]

I have bought a used Audio Buddy to help me use my guitar and microphone with my box.

The microphone XLR in works as expected, but as soon as I turn up the gain knob at
the instrument in more than, say, 20-30%, the sound gets distorted with a crunch that
would let some effects pedals appear pale in comparison.

Is this to be expected?
