Sure. And I respect that.
But when using the Axe, my aim is to get the most authentic sounding results possible. That's just what I want to do. I want it to sound like a real mic'ed amp. Mic'ing a mic'ed signal is physically impossible.
Like EQ, the included mic's are simply filters. If that filter enhances the sound, it's no less authentic than using an EQ to augment it.
