If I understand properly, you're comparing the audio output of the Axe directly, to the audio output of the Scarlett after taking OUT 1 of the Axe. Is this correct?
If so, you're doing a second set of A/D and D/A conversion with the Scarlett. Not a surprise that there's a difference (although maybe a surprise that it's audible).
In any case, your complaint is with the D/A side of the Scarlett, and while that's 'not nothing', it's not necessarily affecting what you're printing, right?
Have you tried recording the Axe direct-to-PC then using both it and the Scarlett as playbacks, and A/B comparing?
I have an 18i20; I don't know that I've ever directly compared it to the Axe output. I'll give it a shot soon.
