Is there no mic input trim control?

Not that I've seen so far, David.

It doesn't sound like simple distortion. When it hits that volume point, it makes a very loud noise - about twice as loud as the music leading up to it.

As I said, it's not really a problem. It's a "voice recorder" function - it wasn't designed for loud, on stage music recording. It works well for acoustic living room rehearsals anyway.

When you hit 'digital distortion',
it is basically instantly a square wave
at full output.
For a number of sample cycles corresponding
to the length of the over level signal period.
Once you're over it is pure merde till it goes below threshold.

Analog distortion is rounding off the
tops of curves till eventually they turn square wave.
But ya gotta be really working on it to go square wave;
as in : mutant stupid and deaf...

A much more gradual and forgiving type of distortion onset.

Yeah, I guess that describes the sound. A full volume square wave.

Here's a Zen Nano Plus recording of my Rickenbacker, direct from the headphone jack of a Pod XT:

Not studio quality or anything, but it's not too bad.
