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 This started as a tweak on the stock "Surf's Up" patch, but ultimately I think I ended up changing every block completely. My choices were informed by the classic surf rigs of guitarists like Dick Dale (spring reverb, tremolo and 15" speakers). I also added a rockabilly-style delay in front. Try the middle pickup toggle position. Good with Fender single coils and P90s. Even my vintage-style PAFs sounded good though. Pretty bright sounding patch, but that goes with the territory.
