    Can't speak to the Majesty, but I have a love/hate with the Crunch Labs in my JP6 guitars. They seem ok for the rosewood boards, but I am not a fan with the maple boards.

    Axe-Fx III. Output mode. Copy L to R. UsSB sound incomplete

    If you are getting sound cancellation with the 2290 you are collapsing to mono somewhere. If you are summing L+R, that is likely the problem. Do the ping pong delay test and see if you get distinct delays on L and R channels.

    Bug? SPDIF Output collapses to mono.

    I believe the output 1 collapsing was fixed in the recent firmware update. I use SPDIF to my interface and do not experience any issues with collapsing to mono. Is it possible your signal is being collapsed to mono prior to output, i.e. stereo effect into/before a mono amp or other mono block?
