Hey all
Was doing a show 2 nights ago and one of the guys in another band and I were talking that I use a Kemper but that I have an Axe FX 2 MK 2 [ and AX8 ] on the way.
He said he has been looking at an Axe FX 2 MK 1 and asked if I knew if the Axe 2 MK 1 "sounded different" to the Axe FX 2 MK 2 model ...... or if he should look for an XL or XL+ .....
Im sure this was/has been covered *in depth* many times in the past, but as Im new to Fractal land I said ......
..... that as far as I could read on the Axe Wiki when doing my research :-
=> the MK 2 has better heat vents, a better fan and MFC connector ... but otherwise, in terms of tone / sound / audio quality / dynamics etc...... the MK 1 and MK 2 are identical (?)
=> the XL / XL+ when compared to the Axe FX 2 MK 1 / Axe FX 2 MK 2 is "better", but I had no idea to what extent it would actuaslly "sound and feel" better as I have never done any sort of direct A/B comparison (?)
I *really* hope I didn't mis-lead him ?
Im pretty sure he was goiing to grab the Axe FX 2 MK 1 the next day or so.
Thanks,
Ben
