    FX Loop + wet/DI bleed?

    For the past few years i've had some confusion on understanding the fx loop and the DI signal through the outputs of the axe. I've been using two OD pedals in the fx loop but there have been a few patches (stock and custom) that has the wet signal coming out of the DI out. Can someone assist...

    DI distortion?

    I've recently come across having this problem for the first time in almost a decade using my axe2 XL. I've adjusted the in/out on my DAW and also followed by the re-amping wiki page but i cannot seem to be getting a cleaner DI signal. My guess has to be because i am using a pedal in front of my...

    Metal on Q.9.02

    This is a recent video i decided to be apart of simply because i REALLY liked the tone i was able to achieve using a drive pedal through the FXL block. I felt it fit the song and style of music just right. I'm still adjusting the presets on a daily basis to make it better one way or another...

    FXLoop = system mute? (Q8.02)

    Axe-FX XL This is the weirdest situation i've ever encountered with my axe. Just yesterday as i was editing my presets via axe-edit - as i was renaming through the front physical buttons - hitting "store" the entire preset went dead silent. All other presets that either have the FXLoop block...

    MKii beyond Preset 384?

    Is there a way i'm able to go past stock preset 384 on my MFC-101 MKii using my Axe-fx XL? I'm not able to go beyond that number without it jumping back to preset one, the only way i'm able to go past 385 is if i manually preset up on the Directional keys. Any suggestions?
