NOOB question about my rig and recording

The output knob is a bit like a master fader, so it wont change your tone in any way. Is is said that you get the best signal-to-noise ratio from 9 to 3 oclock with this knob so this is a point to consider. I personnaly would adjust my monitor in order not to make it clip with my output , so if...

Help!Am I too stupid to own this thing?Maybe not!!!

Normally, you need to set main input source to : Analog (in 1) and on your computer you need to set the AxeFX as default playback device. I tried here and it seems to work. Just need to adjust levels coming from the computer ( adjust them inside the computer) to match the level of my guitar and...
