Is it perhaps because the bistream rate of the file/individual
channel itself (probably 16 or 24, right?) is lower than that
of the SX mix buss? Could that be why it sounds different?

The mix buss processes at 32 bits.

Bit depth won't make an audible difference in this case.
It's more than likely a mono vs. stereo issue with Amplitube and how it
receives the input. I've run across this with other amp sims. There just
aren't any stereo guitars, so they assume mono on a track, whereas on an FX
channel (send) it might assume stereo - makes a big difference in how it
sounds.
The whole engine is 32-bit float, not just the mix buss. Some plugins
even process at 64 bit regardless of whether they are on a track, the main
buss, an FX channel or a group.
Regards,
Dedric

Call Applecare. They'll know how to fix it.

i'm still waiting for them to open up the mac. hopefully they will
today. i did run into a guy at the home show who just turned in his
mac for the same thing. my guess is that it's fairly common...at
least with this model. not surprising since i bought it.
