???
ie - putting stuff thru desks etc to make them distort.
the waves look trhe same(but smoother) but teh distortion seems to sound soooooooo different!
sounds ok to me. is it generally accepted as good- or frowned upon?
Depends on a lot of things, but if it sounds good, why not?
Be caureful though - it's often not that pleasant when the desk is cheap (ie cheap channel components) and it's going on on every track in the mix. Gives a nasal-sounding cheap distortion which isn't really that nice.
Note the other bit though

cheap transistor distortion
i had a yamaha desk a few years back, trying that was pointless, i think digital clipping / distortion was nicer sounding
