Hi, new here. I'm starting to dive into using the axe fx ii, and I'm curious about a few things. My configuration is L/R out of Axe FX into a Scarlett 2i2 via XLR, and the Scarlett via USB into my iMac. The 2i2 is connected to my JBL-305s and that's how I monitor.
1. When downloading presets from Axe-Change, the output level is not consistent, most of which produce clipping on the Scarlett. I'm not exactly sure which level to adjust, would that be the Level in the Mixer section of Axe-Edit? I'm constantly adjusting the axe output, 2i2 input gain, and 2i2 volumes. I did go through setting the input/output levels setup.
2. A few presets required a specific OwnHammer cab, and as I starting searching around, I noticed a few mentions that there exists a few package of IRs from OwnHammer, however, I can't seem to find any searching the net. Is this right, and if so, how can I find these IRs? I'm more than happy to pay, but I'd like to try free ones first if possible.
3. I read or heard the first thing one should do is turn the high-cut down on the delays/reverbs, is this true? Are there any other settings that should be set when first starting to use the axe fx?
I think that's all. Thanks!
