Hi everybody,
I know there has been a lot of discussion, whether to use real cabs in live situations or FRFR systems.
But I've never seen anybody stating that the main problem of using real cabs (and then of course turning the cab sim in the axe off) is that the gain structure of the presets change dramatically.
For example, when I use the vibrato-verb amp with basketweave tv cabs and dial in a perfect tone with a slightly break up when hitting the string a bit harder and then use the same preset but turning off cab sims and playing it through my Matrix GT 1000 FX into a Mesa-Boogie Rectifier 4x12 real cabinet, the sound is completely overdriven.
Even worse if I use High-Gain presets - it sound like a chainsaw through my mesa.
So playing live with real cabs behind me and simulated cabs to the FOH becomes completely impossible, because I hear two completely different sound.
Has anybody a solution for this?
