    Recent Axe Convert

    Welcome. The mistake I made after purchasing the Axe2 and Axe3 was to not study the IO part of the manual. The FX is by default assuming that you will not be directly connected to a house mixer. By doing so, the FX only generates a -10dBu output. So for YEARS my church people claimed they could...
