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 Gtr Amp Input

Description My attempt to mimic my favorite settings / sound from the original 1980 Boss BF-2 Flanger that I inherited from an older family member and has been in our family for 45 years now. This is one of Boss' most iconic pedals and arguably the best sounding Flanger pedal ever made. It holds its own next to my big box 1990's Electric Mistress and Hartman analog flanger pedals, offering a unique sound of it's own. These settings are somewhat similar to the settings Billy Duffy uses on The Cult song "She Sells Sanctuary" with a little deeper swoosh that puts a smile on my face. A & B channel variations for resonance amount
