    Considering switching strategies to multiple presets in lieu of one preset and many scenes

    My band plays popular rock and pop covers, so 1 preset with scenes just ain't going to cut it - especially when we try our best with tech to sound like it did on the record. I think am using about 15 presets to cover 25 or so tunes, some songs using the same one. I have the preset number on...

    1st Gig with all the new gear!!

    Hi Rontti Suspect all of the above can be true? It was a smaller venue, so the PA did all the work and filled the space.

    1st Gig with all the new gear!!

    Stereo for my AXE FX rig or the full PA? Axe FX - full panned hard L & R in my IEM mix. FOH slightly panned L & R (probs about 10 to and 10 past, if that). Just about all of my AXE FX patches have the Enhancer block. I use no 2 Amps at the same time, so no Amp blending. Main amp for crunch...

    IEM in Aussie land

    Given sizes of stages we currently play, am just going wired. Presonus RM32AI desk sends stero signal to a little Behringer 4 ch mixer. Headphone out of that goes to my IEM's. With the Presonus we can all have a separate IEM mix, in stereo, which sounds just SO good!

    Open question on FRFR/IEM - stereo quandry

    Not used IEM before - always had a backline of some sort (moving air!), suppose it's taking a step into the unknown? Plus - if I play with other bands/sessions who don't have IEM system, I think I'd like some sort of own backline/monitoring for the Axe Fx
