Sorry if I've already posted about this before, however my tastes, gear, and needs change - couple that with early onset dementia (turning 33 has been rough lol) and I end up posting the same question one year later
Just to outline the way my rig is currently set up and how it will be set up in the future:
V1.0 (Current):
Guitar > Korg PitchBlack Pro > Axe-Fx III Mk II > Fryette 2/90/2 both channels out in stereo > (via 2x 4Ohm stereo inputs) MESA 4x12
V1.5 (Future):
Guitar > Korg PitchBlack Pro > Axe-Fx III Mk II > Fryette 2/90/2 > MESA 4x12 X2 (1 per channel @ 8Ohms each)
So for the moment, I'll be experimenting with running two amp blocks into the one 4x12 technically in stereo. To be more specific, I want to run two instances of the TriAxis (USA Pre Yellow) - is this a feasible thing to do as far as there being actual benefits? If not, would it make more sense to blend a different amp model (if so, which?)? Are there any tips people can give me about blending two amps? I know from experience that it sounds weird when there's a large enough discrepancy in gain, and that some amps will blend together better than others. My current monster guitar tone I'm working on is a sort of high-gain Petrucci-meets-Hetfield preset and I'm hoping that TWO TriAxis amp blocks blended with variances in EQ will sound immense.
I have the Cooper Carter masterclass for my Fractal so I'll have to refer to that, but was curious to hear from users about their experiences.
