The best solution will always be to get a decent preamp and condenser
mic to mic your amp with and send that to your card rather than going
direct. You just can't beat the real thing.
However if you must go direct, I've had good results recently using
Florian's jack convolver. There are lots of impulse response samples
freely available on the net for various preamps, amps and speaker cabinets.
