Thats something that worried me, I seem to remeber that the sound of a

Yeah, you really should be going through a DI box if you're plugging a guitar into a console. The mixer
will be able to give you the necessary gain boost, but I don't that's sonically or electronically equivalent to
the pre-amp stage of an amp or direct box.
