Hey there!
I have been thinking about this for a while. I must admit that I personally think that the DI from the Axe-Fx somehow doesn`t sound how I would like it to sound. I think it kinda lacks high and low end and is very prominent in the 2k area. This might be by design... I was at a friend and we A/B`d the Axe-Fx`s DI against a DI box DI and it sounded pretty different!
I would like to try out the following: Record with the Axe-Fx -> interface -> DAW, but at the same time record a DI signal by using the Output 2 -> Input 1 to get a copy out of the 2nd output of the Axe-Fx. I would like to route that copy into a DI Box (looking at the Countryman Type 85) to get a cleaner and "better" DI and record it into my DAW as well.
I would like to reamp later on using these Di`s in hopes of getting richer and better tones with the Axe-Fx.
Did anyone ever test this? Can anyone share their thoughts? Is there anything I am missing here (like gain stage/volume issues)? Please lert me know. Thanks!
Cheers!
