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 As heard in SoloAWeek 36. Turn off the DRV 2 (RAT DIST) for the song's rhythm tone. If you use a humbucker-equipped guitar, this will have too much gain. It is designed to work with the fairly low-output pickups on my Stratocaster. I would advise pulling down the input trim instead of lowering the amp gain if you are going to play with humbuckers. This method seems to me to more naturally preserve the existing gain structure while allowing you to use higher-output pickups.
