This new and easy method enables you to use regular equipment (any amp) without disadvantages. It doesn't require additional trouble, it's less trouble.
Yes, this new method is intriguing since it easily and effectively takes any type of power amp 'error' out of the equation when shooting IR's.
What this new method does could be simplified to:
-any power amp/speaker cable adds it's own color/influence to the tone/response to the cab; we are only interested in the cab response/IR
-this method captures an 'error' signal which and is applied to the IR capture and removes any power amp influence, leaving the pure cab IR only.
This is cool since we want all power amp influence on the tone, etc. to come from the AXE II and not have the originating power amp influence 'baked in' to the IR. Most excellent....
