Clean / Dirty amp X/Y Setup

APE

Inspired
I'm working on a preset for "Last in Line," by Dio. For the clean sound, I am using Moke's Acoustic Simulator for Humbucker. I use a split between my Single Coil pup (blue velvet) and the bridge pup (Tone Zone).

The acoustic sound is great! A little bit noisy, but a really good sound.

The dirty sound is very noisy. Why?

For the dirty sound, I use a different scene where I:—

1) For the Amp block, use a Y setting for FAS modern II amp.
2) Add a cab after the amp (Moke's puts the cab before the amp).

Now I have
Code:
Guitar --> Input Gate --> AMP --> Cab [[ ---->

–––– > L [ 4x12 Recto M160
            R [ 58 Dyn

But the dirty sound is very noisy
 
If you're interested in Moke's Acoustic Sim, ask @Moke about it.

I'm interested in fixing the noise issue with the Y amp settings. What are some likely causes and their respective fixes? Thank you.
 
If your doing this on an Axe-Fx II. Just use a second amp block instead of the amp X/Y. Would have to see the preset to figure out where all of the noise is coming from? Are you bypassing the cab (with the Acoustic tone match IR) in front of the Amp block when you switch to the dirty (Y) amp?
