Axe FX Output as reamp di?

[acidfrost]

Hey!

I've been wondering if I could use the outputs of my Axe FX 2 as a reamp DI, instead of buying a DI. Since the Axe can be used with an amp, I guess it would work?

Let's say I have a DI track, the Axe is in USB and is connected to a an amp, I could just play the DI track through the Axe and mic the Cab. I don't think there would be an impedance mismatch, no?

Thanks!

I haven't tried this, but it should work? 4-cable mode would be a great option. Well technically 3-cable method, You won't have a guitar plugged into the Axe-Fx input. The USB audio will be taking that role, I guess that still makes it 4 cables....lol

The outputs are 600 ohms only, it's the only issue I can see. Not sure if it matters but usually a reamp DI or a guitar will have a much higher impedance.

Finally had the chance to test it. Seems to work fine, just gotta mind the output volume.
