Determining Your Setup

The "Setup" filter helps you to focus on those presets best-suited for how you use your Axe-Fx.

FRFR/Direct presets (like all of the Factory presets) are designed for "full-range flat-response" systems such as studio monitors, PAs, headphones, etc.

Pwr. Amp + Cab presets use real power amps and guitar speakers.

4-Cable Method (aka :4CM") presets require a special setup with connectors both in front of and in the effects loop of a real amp.

Fx Loop presets in the loop of a real amp. A loop may be SERIES or PARALLEL and the preset needs to be built accordingly.

Gtr Amp Input presets should be used in front of a (real) head or combo. Guitar->Axe-Fx->Amp Input.

Other setups also exist (e.g. combinations of the above).

The Axe-Fx II manual (chapter three) includes more information about setups.

"Cab" search results ignore the settings of this filter.

Set Up Direct

Description Here is a preset I made/modified using the Hook amp. It's my first one. Sounds great direct and with the cab sim turned off though my Port City Pearl Head and OS2x12. Scene 1 and 2 are gritty, but clean up great with the volume knob. Play an open E chord with the Bender Fuzz on and noodle around the 7-12 frets and it sounds huge. Scene 1 - Amp, Cab, Reverb Scene 2 - Amp, Cab, Delay, Reverb Scene 3 - Bender Fuzz @50% Mix, Amp, Delay, Reverb Scene 4 - Bender Fuzz @50% Mix, +/- 1 Octave, Amp, Delay, Reverb Scene 5 - Phaser, Bender Fuzz @50% Mix, Amp, Delay, Reverb
