I've been playing bass thru my Axe-FX+ for a little over a year now. I've never been 100% satisfied with my tone. I had sold off my Darkglass B7K figuring that I didn't need it anymore. I recently bought the B7K Ultra as well as a Super Semmetry compressor in an effort to improve my tone.
I started thinking about what I could do to improve my tone. As an experiment, I turned off cab modeling, as I've been playing thru an Ampeg SVT Heritage 8 x 10. I also started with just the amp block using SV Bass. As I've always took pics with my iPhone of my setting on my amps and pedals, I went thru the thousands of pics and found the one of the settings from the Ampeg SVT Heritage head that I had at one time. I set the SV Bass in Axe-Fx to as close to the settings from the pic. BINGO! I'm now very satisfied with my sound. I'm a huge AIC fan and have been doing Tone Match of Man In The Box and Would with great success.
