Bluetooth Practice

[smueske]

Hi, I haven't yet purchased an Axe FX III, and am looking at options.

I'm looking for a way to practice guitar over bluetooth.

If used as an interface, can it transmit 48khz audio over bluetooth to bluetooth headphones? The cords are making me nutty for practicing guitar at 2 AM. I have both VST and hardware to consider, but this would rock.

Alternatively, do you know of an interface that does this after routing Axe FX III to it (i.e. running stereo outs into a converter, then transmitting the audio over bluetooth).

The Axe FX does not have a Bluetooth interface. Also, Bluetooth is likely going to have too much latency for guitar use. At best you'll get about 30 to 40 ms of latency, but more typically it's well over 100 ms.

A better option would be headphones with a direct RF connection like the way in ear monitors and guitar wireless systems work.

If cords drive you crazy, the latency from the bluetooth will drive you even more crazy.

This. The RF route @mr_fender suggested may work for you but I've never seen somebody get a bluetooth setup to work for guitar.
