Very New To This! Help

Hello all, I am just delving into the world of recording. I'm only doing simple stuff like a couple of guitar tracks to make demos.

I use Logic Pro and just bought the Scarlett Solo 4th Gen. I play in the metal genre and I am just looking for advice or videos on how to get good distortion tones. OR how to properly connect an amp head to the Scarlett so I can get good tones. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
