Can you share your preset so we can check it out in person?
I find I can get great sounds easily at bedroom levels, through my FBT 12ma at gig volumes, not so much, I get this ice picky-ness, but I've always put that down to a non-flat response of the wedge.

Hah, my bad. Pop up blocker was preventing me from attaching stuff.
Okay, I think that what you need to do, is find another Axe-Fx player in your neighbourhood, and get together and compare.
Try the 1x12 open IR in the AxeFx.
At the Dutch Axe Fest I tried an AxeFx2 with a patch consisting of that cab and a deluxe reverb playing Yeks Tele through a CLR. That sounded great!!!!!!
When you A-B like this it is better to use farfield IR's

Can anyone tell me at what volume level the stock amp tones are intended to sound "balanced"? Presumably, the algorithms have been designed to reflect a certain tonal balance at a specific volume. I have noticed that whenever I turn my preset levels down the amps sound muddy, squishy and lifeless until I reset the amp parameters to default. This immediately corrects for those characteristics at the new level (accounting for Fletcher-Munson, I guess). This seems to imply that the amp tones have been designed to sound "good" or "right" or "balanced" at speech-level, not gigging/performance level. Can someone explain to me why this is?
