    First gig with the Axe, and it sounded terrible

    Speaker Break-In ?? New NL12 arriving today

    I'm expecting an NL12 later today. I've seen several posts where people run music through the speaker for 12 hours before use. Is this superstition, or is it legit. Is there a need to "break-in" the speaker. If so what is the method to use? volume level? source material?

    Amp Envy?

    I guess there is the aspect of what we hear directly in the sweet spot isnt the same as the FOH, which is where the AXE does a great job.

    Need direction...how to bring the amps to life

    One thought. If you're trying to get the thump and punch of a real amp from the Behringer monitor it's not going to feel the same. Like others here, I've been through several options, and the sound of the amp will be the same (or damned close once dialed in) but that feel won't. I can't...

    Not true. There is indeed a quality that using cab sims adds to the sound. Not every cab sim sounds good, but as our Guru's here tell us "Tweak by Ear - there are no right or wrong answers" . If I recall, when I was buying this setup, Daniel from Port City told me he uses his axe-fx with...
