Hey all. So, I've got access to some external preamps I would like to start messing around with and might be purchasing one soon, and I would like to utilize the 4 cable method but also make use of the power amp modelling in the Axe FX III (using the tube pre block as recommended in the wiki) as I'm using a Matrix power amp. I have used 4CM many times in the past with previous rigs (prior to getting the Axe) but have some questions regarding the best way to go about this particular scenario.
I'm assuming I would hook up the 4CM as per usual (any preamps I would be using would have an FX loop) and then run the preamp output into say input 2 on the Axe, into the power amp block and output that to my Matrix power amp? Would there be any level settings I'd need to be wary of doing this to optimize the signal or avoid issues? Curious if anyone has done this before and could chime in with their experiences. Cheers!
