Hi there,
I am in the market for an effects unit that will replace my stompboxes. This will run in conjunction with my Boogie Mark V head and cab in 4CM. The FX8 looks like a viable option, however alternatively I am considering the AX8. The amp modelling is appealing to me, and it happens to be easier to source locally than the FX8. The general consensus also seems to be that the AX8 in 4CM has some amount of noise but is more than manageable.
I am unfamiliar with the routing options the AX8 offers. Essentially what I am wanting out of the unit whilst in 4CM (as one setup):

- Utilize the Mark V's preamp and poweramp, and bypass the amp and cab sims
- Have the AX8's output routed into the Mark V's FX return, i.e. power amp only, to incorporate amp sims
