Mata Hari is on a distinguished road

An external amp for the guitars and preamp for the vocals is always best, but if you don't have them, then a gain/compressor/noisegate/tubesound combo for the guitars works. I'm sure there are better combinations (others will know these better then me). However, To record it, you can always try to record the most dry signal you can get and do postprocessing with vst/rerouting through dsp. That way you have most control over it. You can always split the signal into a dry feed to record and a wet one with th drums mixed in to play through headphones for the vocals (be sure to keep latency down or sync up the signals afterwards with a constant offset).
