I am going to be running my Axe III into a tube power amp and real speaker cab - but want to be able to play this setup at quite low volume...
i know i need to disable Cab modeling but in doing some searches on whether to disable Power Amp modeling, I also came across this from a closed thread:
“
Not necessarily. If using a tube power amp into a traditional cab all should be zero. If using a solid-state amp into a traditional cab I would recommend Speaker Compression and Compliance not be zero
“
so, two questions:
1) is the above statement from fractal true, even if you are at low, tv volumes when using a tube amp, or is it only if you have the tube power amp pumping?
2) it seems there are still speaker parameters that need to be adjusted, even after the Cab modeling is disabled?

So, for those changing regularly between FRFR and traditional guitar speakers:
When using a traditional guitar cabinet, the following params in the Amp block should stay at zero:
- Speaker Drive
- Speaker Compression
- Speaker Compliance
Also, Output Mode in the Amp block should be set appropriately:
- FRFR, or
- SS PA + Cab
Not necessarily. If using a tube power amp into a traditional cab all should be zero. If using a solid-state amp into a traditional cab I would recommend Speaker Compression and Compliance not be zero
