These cuts are so important that I would put it in the Axe FX quick start manual, right on the top.
It took me maybe a year to find out why is the sound from my beloved and praised new Axe FX so bad while jamming with my mates. I couldn't understand it, with headphones before it sounded all great and then live only boomy and shrill. All I've seen was their pitiful look like "aha, so that's that FX you told us about, that you paid so much for...aha, ok...". Until I read somewhere in this forum, like some by the way info, that some do this cuts for good reason. In my eyes, it's the tweak #1. It is just not mentioned enough.
We're not all pro sound engineers that know their stuff from the first day with this device. That's why I would suggest having quick start settings in the manual if one is building his or her own preset (which many acctually like to do). It should be clear right there, before having to spend hours and hours through the threads searching for some solution and hoping for good luck.
If I had to write these starter settings, it would be something like: Cab block (IR), low cut 75-100 Hz and high cut 8000 and from there tweak on.
