Could you give a little detail here? I'm still learning a TON about EQing stuff, particularly to help all band members blend together. I'm very curious on the how/why to use global EQ.
For mine...it happened last night and discovered today lol. My lead guitarist goes "I have volume pedal control but no wah!". I'm not familiar enough with the front navigation and couldn't get Axe Edit to work until this morning...when I saw that I had moved the wah to be disconnected from the line lol.
Went all rehearsal last night wonder why the wah didn't work. Guess I should learn the front panel navigation at some point.
Been there with that one more than once.Being the complex machine it is, I'm sure we've all had a brain fart working the axe. I had one last night playing with an 80's style clean tone. I've had this preset for a while and loved it, but last night it was harsh and brittle and horrible.
After tinkering with my guitar for half an hour, I finally found the wah was engaged.
So what's your favorite dufus moment with the axe?
I will piggy back mine on this, similar situation.The self-conducted placebo test, I like it.
Forgetting to turn Input 1 Source back to Analog after reamping and then wondering why I'm not getting any input from my guitar. I've done that way too many times to count.
Cant be the only one plugging into the headphone jack.
I cant be the only one who didnt read the thread.
Same here. I even switched the cable twice and rebooted several timesI have plugged my guitar into the headphone jack.
In case you're wondering, no sound will be heard from monitors in this scenario.
I had just received a brand new guitar, sight unseen, with pickups I'd never tried before.Being the complex machine it is, I'm sure we've all had a brain fart working the axe. I had one last night playing with an 80's style clean tone. I've had this preset for a while and loved it, but last night it was harsh and brittle and horrible.

Hahaaa! This is hilarious! I just did the same thing not too long ago. “This cab sounds way better on clean” One hour later I’m on Sweetwater looking at new monitors because mine are obviously junk and they must be causing ear fatigue.I will piggy back mine on this, similar situation.
I am a total IR rabbit hole junkie (RHJ, band name?) and I have spent way too many hours auditioning IRs. I was loading 8 IRs into cab lab and sending either individual IRs or mixes (likely tried every possible combo, because that's what I do). I was just sending them to the Scratchpad I think.
As I am going through them, I am hitting a few chords on each one..."Meh, that one is OK... OK that one is really nice... OMG no way that one is awful!"
Anyway, an hour or two later I realize the Scratchpad isn't even selected in Cab block and I am literally listening to the EXACT SAME tone every time and truly believing I am hearing drastic differences. Serious "Doh!" moment but also learned first hand the power of placebo.
I suspect everyone has done that at least once... One benefit of using a spring loaded expression pedal for WahAfter tinkering with my guitar for half an hour, I finally found the wah was engaged.
