As you turn up the Motor Drive, you're getting more compression. If you bang hard on the strings, there's not much volume change as you vary MD.Thanks for the update
Is it "intentional" that the output volume is going up when I'm increasing the Motor Drive in the Cab block?
Just curious.
Just got done playing around with the Mesa MKIV, and at first the new EQ seemed subtle, but when you run those highs like JP, then switch to the old EQ......difference is HUGE!
Really allows for more extreme settings without getting out of control, IMO.
I just checked out my Taylor through the Axe for the first time in over a year in preparation for an upcoming gig. I'm using a 10 band pre-EQ, tube pre, and a null cab block to let me use the cab block preamp models. I've finished the chain with the Rec Studio C reverb and the modern enhancer block. And it sounds Awesomesauce! I love that I can just unplug my electric, change to my acoustic preset and swap in the acoustic and I'm ready to go.
One day I'll try a live tone match, but honestly even without the tone match it sounds very nice.
Cliff - I know this is close to the release version (the only real difference being the cab IR's), but there are still several Drives that don't have "(G3)" next to their names. Can we assume these have yet to be converted, and if so, will any of them be for the release version?
Thanks.
I love this too.
I primarily play acoustic gigs with my Taylor < Axe and I am constantly blown away of how awesome my tones are.
Hellbat, your chain is very similar to mine.
Good stuff.
Hi, I just got my first Taylor. What a work of art ... Can you share a preset that you use with yours?
Here is my preset...

My guitar is a 2012 414CE. I run the guitars bass and treble controls flat and have the volume maxed. This matches the input volume of my electrics wide open. I have treble added at almost every stage as I found it was a fairly dark tone when I started with it flat. If it's too bright for your guitar, start by flattening the 10 band pre-eq.
