Hey all,
I'm trying to figure out the best solution for:
I'm aware that using the Axe as an interface definitely has advantages and am considering it - I would just swap and change some cables around if I wanted to use my PC without the Axe on and vice versa.
I don't currently own any SDPIF cables so before I buy a couple, I wanted to make sure I needed them and they wouldn't end up thrown to the side and unused.
What're the benefits of using SPDIF connections over using two XLRs going from the AXE output 1 to my interface inputs? (I already have these cables). I understand that SPDIF would mean not having to swap around any cables - I can use my interface in standalone mode too if I want to play without the PC on. Does that justify spending more money though?
I see this video on YT - 'Axe-Fx With Other Interface ~ The Best Setup ~ Digital SPDIF Loop Reamping' and he's using two SPDIF cables as a loop - do any of you do this?
Just trying to find the right setup. Thanks.
