Ive had my AX8 for a couple weeks now. To build presets and get everything dialed in for live use, I would sit at home with XLR out (L and R) into my Focusrite interface and have a stereo audio track in Logic to monitor.
I got to a place after a few days of tweaking where I was VERY happy with the sound I was getting. Everything was very amp like, spongy and inspiring. This may be important. But one day I noticed things didn’t feel nearly as good as they had been, I realized after a short while that my track wasn’t armed to record. As soon as I arm it to record, there it is! The two tones are similar but very different in the way they feel and react. Not sure what explains this?? Any thoughts?
Further more I brought it into rehearsal today for the first time, this time running two XLRs to FOH and my tone isn’t nearly what it’s like when sitting at home. I’m using my same in ear monitors at home and in rehearsal, except in rehearsal my ears are plugged into a wireless pack. We use wireless for guitar , but even when I went hardwired to test it, the tone still felt wrong. Anyone have any thoughts why it sounds and feels SO good at home, but not nearly the same in that rehearsal setting? Any help is greatly appreciated. Sorry for the long post!
