I have fought with high end hiss,sibilant high end, fizzy ear peircing high end since I started with Axe Fx. The issue causing this for me was the fact that I am reading these are suppose to preform and act as actual amp model. I never knew until now the presence control was an Ideal control. Now this could also be due to the fact I missread somewhere, didn't read updated manuals everytime etc. I have been fighting setting my amp models just as I would with a tube amp. In the case of the presence and depth it was always to me at leas like double or tripple the real models effect.
I always feel a bit akward lowering 8k in a geq or droping the cab block from 20k to 6-8k. Or even leaving the presence on 1 or 2 it felt unnatural. Not with 8.0 everything is so dang awesome sounding now I even been leaving drive blocks out of my effects chain. I cannot express how appreciative I am for all Cliff and the rest of the fractal crew have done. I can only imagine what is next. If i got one compliant about the axe fx it is not really agianst the axe fx at all and more of a selfish thing. I realy want to see more engl amps models Savage, Fireball, invader, Powerball 2. I really want a Framus Cobra also. However with everything in the axe I can not complain only express how much I would love to see these amps. I also think it would be cool if there was the engl amps mesa, 5150, etc that were models of FJA mods amps he has moded. I will say there is just so many dang amps It will never apease everyone and I can think of 50 off the top of my head.
One last thing I would like to get an opinion on is the cab block. In the cab block there is a low cut set at 20hz then high cut at 20k. That being said do these act as just a cut or do they add that much more to any particular cab model. What i mean is most guitar speakers only cover 90-8k at most and most stop from 5k-7k. So my question is when you pick a cab should you set the high and low cut per cab model specs for instance if you have selected cab 123 and the specs in the "real world" are 90-8k should i load cab 123 and immediatly set the high and low cut to cut 90hz and 8khz or no.
Thanks to anyone who reads this and offers there kind opinoin. Please no spell checkers and grammer queens. I know its not perfect I tried it is just a forum post. PLEASE SERIOUS REPLIES ONLY!!!
